So, this is a thing now. If you love pizza as much as we do (and boy do we love pizza here at Uproxx, whether we’re Instagramming it to death or outing ourselves to the police by trying to order it), you’ll get how big of a deal this is.
It’s a pizza…inside a box…made of pizza. The Pizza Box Pizza.
The mind-blowing invention is exclusive to Brooklyn’s Vinnie’s Pizzeria, but come on—it’s got to catch on, right? And if it does, here’s a question: if you order your Pizza Box Pizza as delivery, does it come in another box? Or will the pizza guy just slide it out of the pizza warmer as-is? And do you just set it on your countertop like you do any other box? Can you mix flavors? WE HAVE SO MANY QUESTIONS FOR YOU, VINNIE’S.
But we’re willing to take them on faith, because Pizza Box Pizza.
The tweet is hovering around 2,000 likes and retweets as of this very second, and is loaded with comments and questions from curious (and sometimes skeptical) pizza-lovers.
First off, there are those who question Vinnie’s claim that the pizza box pizza is 100% pizza:
.@vinniesbrooklyn @nevona 100% pizza? What the hell is that little white plastic thing in the center?

@vinniesbrooklyn @janl Is that plastic thing in the middle biodegradable and fair-trade?

But there are also those who are lauding the innovation:

@vinniesbrooklyn @Peeverson WHY DOES THIS PLACE HAVE TO BE IN BROOKLYN. OPEN TEXAS BRANCHES IMMEDIATELY AND YOU CAN HAVE ALL OF MY DOLLARS.

Finally, there are the folks who have the same questions as we do:
.@vinniesbrooklyn Does the driver wear pizza gloves when he brings it to your door?

Well…most of the same questions. Whatever the case, we’re looking to you, Big Pizza, to pick up on this and bring it to the rest of the U.S.—right now the Pizza Box Pizza is only available in New York. Which means we’ll just have to be satisfied with trying to replicate it ourselves.
