If You Love Lunchables, You’ll Love this Cold Pizza Restaurant

I've heard fables of a certain pizza place that serves their pizza cold on purpose. The crust is baked with the sauce, but the toppings like cheese and pepperoni are placed afterwards and served cold as such.

Yes, it's real.

Beto's in Pittsburgh, PA, has this pizza that some either love or loathe. But the people who love them really love them.

I had the chance to try them recently.

When I tried them, it was heated so the cheese and all that was melted like a standard pizza and, to me, it was very good. I think they used provolone instead of mozzarella which was a nice touch.

I've heard that the idea of cooking the crust with sauce, then adding the toppings afterward was perfect for getting it to go as the steam from the hot crust would perfectly melt the cheese so it'd be ready by the time you got home. Kind of a neat idea.

It seems like the popular idea is to literally eat it cold like that. Crust and sauce baked, but cold cheese and toppings and, from people who have tried this, they seem to like it just fine.

Some have referred to this unique style of pizza as 'a Lunchable on crack' which sounds pretty accurate. I was never into the pizza Lunchables but I could see the comparison.

Not sure if something like this would do well in Yakima, but might be worth a shot for people who want a unique experience. Or maybe something fun to do at home.
