For parties: just buy more pizza
Also, for me tonight: 1 portion = 1 pizza
I identify as a family of four.
Gotta love when the picture itself is mildly infuriating too, I guess
Likely an attempt to claim there’s fewer calories per slice, even though people will just cut it in quarters instead of fifths.
Not sure why the picture shows up sideways… it was taken vertically.
Most phones just use metadata to tell what way an image is supposed to be rotated and will always take the picture portrait. It was probably removed by the image host
Good to know. 😟 :(
It does the exact same thing to me. But if I go in my gallery and make a copy of the picture and upload that, it works correctly.
I don’t get it either.
I uploaded via Memmy… maybe I’ll post a bug report.
What pisses me off is when they cut they pizza in squares and not pie cut…
Who the hell cuts pizza?
Fold, eat.Instant calzone… or pizza sandwich
People who share a pizza with four others, perhaps?
That’s when you cut it into sixths and take the last piece after “offering” it to everyone else.
It’s Nestle, they have their child slaves cut it for them.
It might be designed that way to make the nutritional facts more appealing. They can define the portion sizes arbitrarily, so the per-portion amounts don’t look so high.

I dunno about y’all, but I cut my pizza’s into 1/8ths, which would be smaller than 1/5.
The FDA is in charge of portion sizes. No one decides it on their own.
What a company can do is fiddle with the total number of portions. Which is how you get 5 portions in this pizza.
Interetingly, I’ve concluded that cutting a pizza to 4 pieces makes the rim support the tip properly, regardless of the size of the pizza, while cutting the pizza to 8 pieces makes the tip of the piece always flop. However, one quadrant of the pizza is harder to eat, because it widens so radicaly. This has made me a believer of cutting the pizza to 6 pieces, as this solves both issues.
I woudn’t be surprised if some maths genius would’ve calculated that the 5 pieces would be the most optimal for both issues, the tip support, and the edibility. However, cutting to 5 equal pieces is rather bothersom, so I’ll be sticking with 6 pieces personally, regardless of what pizza enginers may have calculated.
Doesn’t Costco do 6 pieces by default? That’s always struck me as a good size.
Must be the guys who designed Trivial Pursuit.
You mean the Moops?
Same person also did the installation instructions for Glacier Bay medicine cabinets. 3/5 and 2/9 were measurements I recently had the joy of running into.
I can say with 105.6% accuracy that I did not install the framing to the exact dimensions as specified. If Glacier Bay has a problem they can make tape measures with 1/5 and 1/9.
Could that have been a metric conversion issue? Convenient measurements in one system of units are not necessarily convenient in another
I cut mine into quarters 🤷♂️
I roll mine up like a churro.
Me. I have a family of 5
Also, who eats their pizza with a salad?
It goes well actually
I had a chocolate mousse salad does that count?
I’ve been trying to lose weight by making gradual changes in my eating habits in the hopes that it will result in a big change that i can stick to for the rest of my life and I’ve learned a reasonably sized slice of pizza and a salad is pretty satisfying and salad really does go well with pizza. It’s not super healthy and by no means an everyday meal, but it’s better than eating half a large pizza in one sitting like i used to.
Pizza is a salad.
