    While originally topped with Velveeta, Altoona-style pizza is popularly topped with yellow processed cheese known as American cheese. The yellow squares of American cheese are a staple of this dish, used instead of the mozzarella or provolone common to other styles of pizza.

    Everything about that paragraph makes me feel ill.

      Following the destruction of the hotel in 2013 by fire, other local restaurants began serving Altoona-style pizza

      It could have died there, but they had to do this

      Mozzarella is nice though, just that it’s mentioned makes me feel a bit better. As if the world isn’t broken completely.

      This made me discover Velveeta. I wish I hadn’t.

            It’s from the 1980s iirc. I made it once which is one time more than it should have existed at all. It literally tastes like chocolatey barf.
