    Can you elaborate on how “Calzone” constitutes heavy lifting

    If anything, i probably should have “” panzerotti or at least both. In any case, its odd you centered out CalZone and not panzerotti all things being equivalent

      Because both of those items are prepared in specific ways that very much do not constitute ‘folding a pizza in half.’ For example, a panzerotti as I understand it are small, sealed pies that are commonly deep-fried. A calzone as I understand it is another kind of pie, larger, sealed and then baked up.

      Now if this is meant as a c/ShittyFoodPorn post like something a frat or dorm-bro would come up with, then rock on I guess, altho it’s still not in the right sublemmy as I see it. But whatever, that’s just me!

      Because a calzone is not simply folded-over pizza.

      I may describe it a like a small round pizza folded over on itself then baked - for someone with no idea, but they are very different things

      Calzone has no sauce in it, for one thing.

      Because they’re baked, they have a very different texture and flavor profile than pizza.

      This is like saying an omelette and scrambled eggs are the same thing. They aren’t.
