Every pizza is a personal pizza if you just believe in yourself.

I sometimes have a normal Pizza, Double Burger, Chili Cheese Nuggets, croquettes and Ben&Jerries.

One word: Mindestbestellwert. (Minimum order value)

When I was 8 years old, my sister ordered an XL pizza from papa johns. And I said "Ok......but what are YOU having?" She laughed it off as me saying I'd eat the whole thing myself. I saw no joke. So I made her order a second pizza for herself. She got a small. And when I was done with my pizza, I ate half of her pizza. She then accused me of playing some prank on her. She searched her apartment up and down claiming I was hiding the pizza somewhere. I was like "YOU WATCHED ME EAT MOST OF IT!!!"

My stomach did not have an "off" button. At least not until decades later when they removed 2/3rds of my colon. Now I can eat something small to medium sized and feel like I'm full.

But back then? I honestly think if you'd have put 10 XL pizzas in front of me, I'd have eaten them all if I liked the toppings. Then asked for snacks later.

Why? It doesn't seem terrifying or amazing to me. Maybe an eyebrow raise.

As one of those that easily destroy an XL pizza in one go... why is that terrifying?

I Mean, overall I don't eat all that much... I never eat breakfast and very rarely eat lunch, so one or two meals a day for me (historically a very active person) has to be large to make up for the times I don't have time (or want) to stop and eat. So it takes at least a large pizza or like two boxes of Mac & cheese to even come close to refilling my fuel tank.

The trick is to put half in one end, and the rest in the other.

If the diameter is not at least 40cm, it's not a pizza for me.

I know it is one of those odd american pizzas but this looks like tomato soup in a bread bowl. Or perhaps some sort of not sweet pie

We don't measure pizza in centimeters. We measure it in slices.
