Pizza Grease

I just ate deliciously caloric pizza, and it made me remember something... in my life, I've seen many people dab pizza with napkins to remove excess grease. How could you possibly measure how many calories you save with that? I know they're not necessarily counting, but still...

I'd already put on hot sauce when I remembered this, so no dabbing for me ;) but does anyone do this with pizza or any other food?

    I never dab. The grease doesn't bother me.

    I dab the grease just because I don't like it. I don't think it saves any significant amount of calories, so I count the slice normally.

    I do. Sometimes when we are having a busy day we stop at the food area of Sams Club to eat lunch while we shop, I usually get one slice of cheese pizza and dab the grease because it's REALLY greasy and I know it's better if I don't have it. I still log it as one slice of Sam's Club cheese pizza. I do it wih New York style too sometimes if it's overly greasy just because my stomach can't really handle all that grease anymore.
