I wonder if I should have called this blog LJ's Rants instead of Studies in LJ, because it seems like I'm always whining about this or complaining about that. (Always being, I suppose, three times.)
Today's complaint is brought to you by the creative geniuses behind Frescata Pizza. I saw this thing in the store yesterday, and it promised 10 -- count 'em: 10 -- toppings on its supreme pizza. So, here I was all set for some pepperoni, some sausage, some mushroom and pepper, some who knows what else. But when I read the fine print, where it lists the toppings, they include: Mozzerella, Parmesan, garlic and oregano, green, red and yellow bell peppers. That's right: Peppers counts as three different toppings. Cheese counts as two different toppings, and Italian spices counts as two toppings. Seven of the ten toppings are "plain pizza", and then the eight is red onion, and not nice long strips of red onion, but diced red onion. I'm surprised they didn't count the tomato sauce, because then they could have had eleven toppings (or more likely left off a color of pepper the sausage). I guess I should count myself lucky they didn't count the crust, but then, that would be a bottoming.
And this is LEGAL!!! No false advertising whatsoever. They say they have ten toppings and by God, they have ten toppings. I wonder if they could have called it a ten-topping pizza if they'd put ten slices of pepperoni on it.
