    Depends how much you eat. If you eat 1/2 pizza, does it matter if that is 3 slices or 4?

    Oddly enough, yes.

    Let's say you eat your pizza at a rate of 8 bites per slice, if you eat 4 slices that's 32 bites. Whilst swallowing each bite you are also swallowing .25kg/s of air to total 8kg/s over the course of the meal. With 3 slices, 24 bites and only 6kg/s of air expanding your gut.

    Q.E.D: Less air = denser. Denser = heavier. Heavier = fatter.

    So, the more slices the better for your overall health. Ideally, If you could cut that thing into 50 slices or more, you would be in optimal food to air ratio.

    This does need to be adjusted when beer is added to the equation due to increased belching and decrease in food to air ratio.

    Air goes into your lungs not your stomach


    I don't understand the metric system or biology. I thought this was a support website???

    1. Fold pizza in half

    from this point it becomes a calzone. calzones are much cleaner than pizza.

    I cut it in half, because two pieces is my limit, and math isn't my forte.

    Always Eighths, don't be like those uncivilized Chicagoans! Next you will be asking about using napkins to soak the grease, and a fork to eat with!

    This is a good point, though.

    It does matter. The more cuts you make, the more calories escape from the fresh wounds of the pizza.

    the more pieces you cut, the more you can log as cardio.

    Listen, four to eight cuts is strength, eight to sixteen is hypertrophy, and only beyond sixteen do you get into slicing cardio.

    depends on the thickness of the base.

    This is horrible. Thanks for nothing. I just wanted to find out what the most clean paleo carb calorie conscious way was to cut a pizza and now I'm questioning both my sexuality and my humanity. I might be pizza for Christ's sake. This is the worst hannukah ever.

    To cut in sixths, use a compass and set the radius to match that of the pizza. Then place the one end of the compass at any point along the circumference and mark the other two points where the compass intersects the circumference. This will give you the width of each piece.

    But not with a pencil because that would be gross.

    Also, you could lay a hexagon with the same diameter provided the hexagon was inscribed in the circle and cut from corner to corner thusly.
    Of course not with a pencil. What kind of amateurs don't have a pizza compass?

    Pizza-induced hypertrophy. It's like this thread was written just for me.

    There, there. We still love you. Now hold still while I cut you into eighths.

    Some pizza entries in the database are for 1/9 of a pizza.

    How in the name of cauliflower cupcakes do you cut 1/9 of a pizza?!?!

    I have long wondered that same thing. Who does that?

    One way I find to eat pizza that helps with weight loss is that I eat it right out of the oven without waiting for the pizza to cool off at all. That way, it scalds the roof of my mouth, and I shed flesh there for days to follow.
