Is cheese a traded commodity?

[Boggle]

Why is it every time I order a regular cheese pizza with extra cheese, it had no more than a regular one? Is cheese like 50.00 a pound? Is this just me?

As to the first part of your question, it's b/c every pizza place you will ever use has a spy working there who knows everything about you and hates you deeply for once cutting in front of their leader to get on an escalator. They have chosen to take their collective revenge by ensuring you will never get extra cheese on your pizza.

Secondly, yes it's @ least $50 /lb. For proof simply walk into a Wegmans or a Dean & Deluca. btw Wegmans is pretty much where grocery store managers (who've been extra good) go when they die.

Thirdly, no. It's a giant C.O.N. spiracy.

There is this pizza place near my school called the Pie Pizzeria. They make sure they aren't stingy with the cheese. They also have what they call Cheese Pull-A-Parts which are pretty much two pizza crusts sandwiching a 1/4 inch layer of cheese....mmmmmmm......cheese.

I'm guessing your school is the University of Utah... Is The Pie still around? Man, I went there once like 13 years ago. What a dive... good pizza though.

Exactly. It's not such a dive. It's a college hangout so, of course, the walls will be covered in writing

Cheese is INDEED a traded commodity. I just picked up 1,000 shares of Havarti myself, and my Gouda futures are looking sweet. I did take a hit when Bill O'Reilly made his "boycott France" nut-tacular. Camambert shares dropped 50% in one day.

I can't believe I just wrote that s**t above.... sigh. I have no life.

Ok, I'm home alone and bored...that's my excuse...

Les you might have been kidding, but (before I read your post) I went so far as to look it up on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, and well yes they do trade cheese!!!. Next time talk to your broker about entering into cheese hedge for your next pizza purchase.

On the other thing is Chicago-style pizza.

I don't think I used the restroom for a week after that meal.

It was a 5-pound hunk of cooked cheese with some bread.

Please don't tell me you're disrespecting Chicago pizza, and instead just "Chicago-style" pizza, which never seems to actually be anything like genuine Chicago pizza.

Genuine Chicago pizza is, in fact, the definition of perfect cuisine. Anyone who says otherwise is, IMHO, likely to be emmentally ill.

Saying otherwise is like telling edesignuk that Keira Knightly is ugly or telling Doctor Q that math is useless.

That would be a dangerous thing to do!
