Pizza is one of those foods like potato chips or milkshakes that it just doesn't make sense to have "gourmet" or high quality, fancy recipes. They taste good because they are chock full of unhealthy fats and carbs that we find tasty because it was an evolutionary advantage to do so. And since those ingredients are cheap, papa johns is the best pizza. I've had lots of other pizza that's as good as papa johns mind you, but the people who claim it's better are the types who automatically downgrade something if it's mass produced. Coke is the only product I've ever seen be immune to that.
