The United States of Pizza: Connecticut

How about some recommendations for New England Greek-style pizza in CT (and even NY while I'm asking!)? I think this style of pizza is often overlooked.

Taste Test: Cheap But Good Olive Oils

This was a great idea, but I think the Filippo Berio Extra Light Tasting Olive Oil may have gotten a bad rap unfairly.

Extra light olive oil is olive oil that has been heavily refined, resulting in a pale color and minimal flavor. The extra light label is misleading as this type of olive oil actually contains the same fat content as regular or extra virgin olive oil. It's great for use in frying as it has a very high smoke point. However, the neutral flavor makes it a poor variety of olive oil for which the taste of olive oil is desired. Of course, the label of the Filippo Berio Extra Light "Tasting" Olive Oil probably adds to the confusion!

To make a fair comparison to the other brands, Filippo Berio Extra Virgin Olive Oil would have to be tried. Not to say that it would be great, but I'm sure it would be much better received than the extra light version.
