I lurk these forums, participating once every few years when a topic stirs such passion in me I cannot idly watch my viewpoint go unrepresented.
While my viewpoint for this issue is indeed well represented in this instance, I still felt it necessary to state that Buffalo style pizza has ruined me.
Every pizza I even consider elsewhere is met with the fears that it will be no where near as good as buffalo pizza.
Every time I am bitterly disappointed and find myself longing for another slice of the delicious nirvana of a middle of a buffalo sheet.
When I travel to the area I over-purchase and freeze it, however it has a half life of about 2 days.
While I've read a few but not all pages, I have not seen my usual haunt mentioned, Picasso's on Transit. Convenient on/off the thruway for my travels.
As much as I love my family in the area, I suppose I would be torn if I was asked whether I was visiting for the pizza or the family.
I have often opined that Buffalo pizza is indeed worthy of being enshrined as a true regional specialty and I am glad that there is a movement afoot to affirm that.
I hope and pray that some day that a "buffalo pizza joint" may be as common in our national travels as chicago, NY or even california style pizza.
Bless you buffalo pizza and those that support it.
