Chicago pizza isn't even good.
It's not even pizza. It's some weird tomato quiche, but definitely not pizza.

Authentic pizza is just bread, olive oil and cheese. And since that's clearly not pizza, pizza isn't real.
/SChicago style pizza is just one dish named pizza created by Italian immigrants. Italians from New York don't have a monopoly on the term, and neither to Italians who never left.

"Pizza is like love, it is hard to define, but you will know it when you have it"
It's a casserole
I like it. But I don't consider it pizza.
