Most important question of the pizza debate: "What do each of the 4 candidates think about pizza?"
Clinton: "Everyone needs pizza and it is getting too expensive for the average American to afford. My administration, on day 1, would ensure everyone has equal access to quality pizza. I would carefully examine all of this imported buffalo mozzeralla and san marzano tomatoes and find a way for them to be made right her in America!"
Obama: " Hillary and I have a a big difference here. While I agree everyone should have access to quality pizza, I would not mandate everyone to eat pizza like she will. What if people are lactose intolerant or have Coeliac disease. I have been eating pizza everyday since I was a community organizer in Chicago, so I know good pizza!"
Huckabee: "As it is written in Papa John 3:12 - god commands us to eat thin crust and deep dish. Because of my conservative values, I will cut taxes on everyone so you can decide how much pizza you should eat. Not only that, but every unborn child has a right to pizza as well according to the Domino's 3 for 9.99 passage."
McCain: "What we need to do is to close the borders to ensure no pizza gets out of this country. If we want our troops to conquer al Qaeda in Iraq, we are going to need more pizza for them. Without pizza to feed the troops, Iraq will be turned into an Islamic hot bed of hummos and other middle eastern delights which they will try to export to us. After the surge, pizza is the next best weapon against Islamic fundamentalism and the best way to keep our borders safe and our country strong!"

It was actually in a bar in Saratoga Springs NY. I think they may have served light food such as sandwiches or pizza but I never went back tyo find out after seeing this:
It was nearly closing time and my lady friend went in to use their restroom. I followed her to wait inside and watched an employee who was mopping the floors sweep the mop straight up off the floor, swab down the table in each booth as he walked past it.... and then straight back down to swab the floor area in between each booth. One mop... one bucket... one very disturbed observer (and I'm not the fussy type).

More reasons to start cooking and eating at home more, pack lunches, picnics, romantic picnics...and remembering to patronize the good Restaurants.
In my home town in Huntsville Alabama a lady has started a commercial kitchen in which she prepares meals for a specific amount of days (with menus for you to pick from) for the busy people that don't want to cook but want good food. http://www.sshuntsvillesouthal.com/
But here the benefit is that if you come in and adhere to all the regulations you can put together your own meals with the prepared products (under supervision) for a discount off of your meals. (plus it gives you a chance to spy out how they do things, sanitation, hygiene...etc)
Pretty darn good Idea...its located in a strip mall/shopping plaza. Big front glass windows that you can see in from the street.
Grossest thing ever? Probably when I worked for a take-out pizza joint and the girl running the cash register spit a 'big nasty one' (throat clearing) in the middle of a pizza then covered it with cheese and toppings. The customers were 'default' on one of her mom's 'properties'.
I reported her after she confirmed she actually did it by bragging about it...the only redeeming factor is that hopefully the oven cooked most of the chances of disease or bacteria out of it.

I'm glad I ate my brought-from-home pb sandwich before reading these comments. Urgh...
I would NEVER, EVER scrape a plate in front of guests and I'm pretty sure my boss would throttle me if I did it.
I got a coffee cup with lipstick on it a few weeks ago. I pointed it out to our server who recognized the shade and knew it came from a regular and that it was hard to remove. I can't be sure, but I think all she did was take the mug to the kitchen, wipe off the lipstick and return the filled mug to me. Next time I'll make sure I request a new mug, which is what she should have given me!

@FFC - Let's put it this way, my husband was ready to offer to buy cellulite cream for her. I would have offered to buy her a mirror!! ;-DD

I would have to say the grossest thing we have seen in a restaurant would be the time we were eating dinner at a very nice restaurant on vacation in Florida and the woman at the next table dropped her napkin and bent over to pick it up.........short skirt, NO underwear!!!!!! Needless to say, I was done eating.
-----------------------------------------------------------
Without a description of the woman (young, old, attractive, ugly) it's difficult to say whether this would have bothered me. On the contrary, I could imagine some scanrious where it might be quite pleasant.

@izatryt- I would have puked right then & there.
One of the grossest things I've come across..at least to me..are glasses and flatware with lipstick on them.

@smile: She was paid well for the area, and the kitchen crew made family meal every night for the staff. Regardless of the reason she was doing it, had the health inspector come in during service, we'd have been fined because of it.

bstetka - I think they're both from Illinois and I for one have no interest in having Clinton as a representative for me in the senate and on behalf of my beloved pies. It's bad enough she's a senator, let's not make it worse by listening to her take a stand on pizza based on how her constituency feels on any day of the week.
