Yes possibly.A filling, delicious dinner can be gnocci, a spoon of pesto and a sprinkling of parmesan is enough. It's the flavour that counts. When it comes to pizza, a little detail that caught my appreciation is that it tends to be thin-crust and eaten with a knife and fork, the last detail being a 'limiter' to gorging oneself as it tends to slow down consumption IMO?
I know this isn't the case with all the British of course, and maybe it's not quite as prevalent as it was, but it seems that when ordering (or making) a pizza a lot have to have every topping available, a kilo of cheese and a base that's about 4" thick. A bit like ordering the hottest curry and a ton of nan breads- there's no real interest in what the actual ingredients are, but it's like some sort of strange challenge/getting your money's worth. ?
Maybe it's purely greed.
