No, pizza is a beautiful thing because it's delicious. These folks aren't claiming Verace Pizza Napoletana certification. They're providing incredibly fresh ingredients and making pizza. On a farm. In the Midwest.
If you want to complain about the bastardization of pizza, go look up Domino's. Not a family farm that provides what looks to be delicious pizza in an incredibly green and sustainable way.
To add to my earlier post, when I say it "doesn't look good" I mean that there is too much cheese for this pizza to be balanced from a taste standpoint. I don't care if the pizza is perfectly formed. Case in point: my favorite pizza is Pepe's in New Haven, CT, which makes assemetrical and oblonged shaped pizzas. But the above picture leads me to believe that the pizza is unbalanced and would thus not be a great pizza.

It's made with love. That's all I need.
Haters sit down!
I'm with you, Sloppy.
What is wrong with some people? I think this is pretty damn cool -- the family obviously cares about pizza (enough to build a brick oven) and the ingredients are as fresh as possible. It sounds like it would be a real pleasure to sit outside and enjoy the fruits of their labor. Yes, that one looks a little cheese heavy but no one is claiming that this is the next Bianco.
I never cease to be amazed by the odd things that get people worked up online.
@bobbob: "Too much cheese" is not enough in Wisconsin!
Too much cheese but the crust actually looks pretty good.
Ah, greenwashing... nothing fresh or "sustainable" can ever do wrong. Instead, let's just change the subject to Domino's, which has absolutely nothing to do with the thread.
