Exactly. Some places like Uno’s don’t garnish the sauce on top, but many other big name Chicago joints do… usually with just a little shredded or more commonly grated Parmesan.

A lot of people developed a taste for burgers and pizza, before learning they should be eating in a more sustainable manner.

But it wasn’t even six inches high before it went in the oven! Doesn’t that still qualify as thin crust? 😆

Miyoko’s cashew milk based moz is the most realistic flavor and melts well. The Follow Your Heart Parmesan (sprinkled on top) does not melt well, but their provolone does. Also used some Daiya mozzarella which melts, but doesn’t tastes too great. Sauce with Roma paste, olive oil, marjoram, fennel, garlic is almost strong enough flavor to cover up the Daiya, but not quite. Wish there were more choices.

While originally from Chicago, I live in NY now. I tried what they call pizza here, and it was indistinguishable from cardboard with some ketchup on top. 😁
