WE call that finger food here in America. Fast food is just food premade to the point that you can just whip it up and go.Quote:

If it takes hours to make a 'real' pizza, the delivery places must do things differently o.O
In that case, pizza is fast food SOMETIMES. :DQuote:

In most cases, the only thing fresh about pizza is that it is tossed then and there (which only takes five seconds if you are practiced in doing so).
What takes time is the actual cooking of the pizza, which can range from 10 - 25 minutes depending on the type and what other things you might be cooking in the oven at the moment.
(I once worked at a pizzeria)
It's fast food.
A lot of the pizza takeaway places I go to have the bases ready made, and then they bung on the toppings in front of you, so at least you know the toppings are fresh. Still, it is what I would consider junk food, not fast food, you have to wait at leas 5 mins (in the take-out place) for your pizza to be ready. Fast food to me is like 1-2 minutes, though sometimes they can slip up (like the last time I ordered a Filet-O-Fish I was waiting about 10 minutes because no-one has them. AND the burger bun was burnt! :mad2:)
I make my own pizzas but for my base I make a 'quick' base using butter and self-raising flower. It doesn't taste quite as authentic but at least you know what's gone in it! :)
I find that the pizza guy takes FOREVER to get to my house!
I dont think they are fast food, like i think of fast food as mcdonalds and kfc etc... pizzas you can have in restaurants, but can you imagine eating a big mac in a restaurant? ;)
Although then again on the door of my local mcdonalds it calls it a restaurant :mad:
i dont know what im talking about know but to get to the point no they arent.
