Pizza plus Booze Means Antacids
By CAROL GWINN Kansan Reviewer
After four beers and five attempts to roll pizza dough out onto a cookie sheet—although it might have been five beers and seven, the cheese fighting a losing battle against the Pizza.
Pizza dough has a most obrous tendency to shrink up as quickly as it is rolled out—or else holes develop in the middle of the pan through which the tomato paste causes it to rapidly at 45 degrees, causes the cakes to smell like a high school caterinee.
The commaissure pizza cook regards his pizza as a work of art which requires the exact varieties and amounts of cheese, olives, pickles, fried eggs, sausage, pepperoni and mushrooms, plus the right crust and tomato paste.
Pizza mixes are expensive, however, costing at least 50 cents for a regular size (small), which will hardly feed one hungry person, and twice that amount for the rest of your meal. The supply only the minimum of pizza essentials—a package of flour and yeast for the crust, a small can of tomato paste and a small package of ground parmesan cheese. It is more economical to construct that kind of pizza than Hunt's Tomato Paste and Colby longhorn.
the cook is going to have to supply his own toppings anyway to make the pizza tasty and distinctive enough to compensate for the doughy effort. This brings the price of the cheese down to $4, because the toppings, particularly the mushrooms and pepperoni, are expensive.
However, since connousseur pizza cooks are difficult to find and expensive to supply with the necessary appetizers, most KU students generally either go to one of the many pizzerias in the Lawrence area or order out.
Most pizza joints offer the same basic varieties of pizza, usually ranging from the cheapest, cheese or plain, to the most expensive, marbled or cheeseburger choices. There are various prices and combinations between these extremes. Of course, you're not going to be able to buy a fried egg pizza. If your desireless lean that option, you're limited to making your own
The major differences among pizza joints are their atmospheres, prices and the kinds and amounts of crust, tomato paste, spices and cheeses they use.
The Green Pepper on 620 W. 9th St. makes pizzas with super thick crusts and lots of tomato paste—the type of pizza one customer refers to as "a kind of sandwich."
Green Pepper crusts have a texture like chewy bread, definitely not the traditional crunchy, brittle crust which tastes like matzo. The thickness of the crust and the cheese make Green Pepper pizza more of a meal than a break-break snack.
Green Pepper also has about the cheapest prices in town, particularly on combination specials such as the vegetarian special of cheese, mushrooms, onions, olives and
green peppers. Perhaps one reason Green Pepper prices are low is that it is not a restaurant, but a take out and delivery service—free of charge. If you decide to pick up your pizza or wait for it after you've ordered at the pizzeria, you can watch your order be processed in your next door to Joe's Bakery, you can also have a few appetites while you wait.
One word of warning, however, on Green Pepper pizza. If green peppers make your pizza too sweet, don't eat it.

Equally good, but for the opposite reasons, are the pizzas made by Campus Hideaway pizza. These pizzas have crisp, crunchy crusts and the best tasting cheese in town. Campus Hideaway pizza are also rarely greasy—even the pepperoni don't turn into cups of cheese.
Campus Hideaway is one of the few places in which freaks and middle class America can sit at tables placed next to each other in a restaurant. It offers a battle between Hell's Angels and the FBI. It's a softly-lit, quiet restaurant, which, although it serves beer, does not make its pizzas so spicy that customers have to themselves sack their threats to burn up.
Campus Hideaway does, however, use a spice in its pizzas that makes the Green Pepper green peppers seem mild. Sensitive customers must die this spice out.
Campus Hideaway also has a good variety of spaghetti with meat sauce, mushroom or garlic—and really good mashed potatoes that others who eaten pizza six nights in a row.
Shakey's Pizza Parlor at 544 W. 23rd St.
serves the spiciest pizzas in wooden. Shakey's is indestructible with hard wood tables and benches able to withstand numerous beer drenchings. The old Shakey's motto, "We serve fun—also pizza" is quite accurate.
Shakey's pizzas come in really large sizes, just right for people more interested in sharing one, while drinking beer, with 20 ounces of pizza per person. The large size pizza is also ideal for parties for little kids who run around the restaurant in prepubescent, non-alcoholic beviation. However, if you arrive at a late enough hour, only the odd party maker will be
Shakey's pizzas are usually flat with little substance other than a thin layer of tomato paste, an equally thin layer of cheese and the requested topping all on a thin crust. Shakey's is not the place for the non-nourishing commissure—i such a novelty exists.
Shakey's also provides silent movies and a musician player if you come at the right time.
a piano player if you come at the right time. The Straw Hat at 2515 W. 6th St. follows the Shakey's format. However, it appears to be in better shape and has a less busterous texture than the regular crostets and don't contain much tomato paste or cheese. They taste rather blend. However, for a pizza party in the Shakey's tradition but with a little more quiet and privacy, the Straw Hat is a good place to go. We provide students for living west of campus.
The Pizza Hut at 1606 W. 23rd St., 804 Iowa St. and 828 W. 24th St. provide both the late night snack kind of pizza and the pizza meal. The restaurant has both a family and adult space in the greenhouse. There are also facilities for large pies away from the main dining area.
Pizza Hut putz derive most of their flavor from the toppings. The crust is the thin matzah-type and the tomato paste and cheese are made in an amount of subtle backing for the topping.
Pizza Hut also has combination specials at low prices, such as the sausage and pepperoni combination. Pizza Hut uses high-quality toppings many of its pizzas.
A new pizzeria which resembles the Pizza Hut is Ken's Pizza Place on 24th and 10th streets. Ken's is so you can still smell the paint and varnish. It's a nice, quiet restaurant in the middle-class family tradition.
Ken's Pizza are similar to those of the Pizza Hut, although they don't contain as much topping. They have thin crusts and the required amount of tomato paste wde cheese chipping, but the emphasis is placed flavor of the topping. Ken's also has special sauces at lower prices than what you could get by randomly combining two tappings.
If you're more interested in the college-student type of entertainment (drinking) than in eating pizza, any of these places will be satisfactory. But there is one more requirement for the devout pizza eater: an ample supply of antacids.
