I'm betting if you read their online health inspection results you'll feel different.

Have you considered that not all people have access to a pizza store serving cauliflower crust? Perhaps they live in a cauliflower crust food desert? We should subsidize pizza parlors in underserved cauliflower crust areas to make it equal.

You sound like part of the problem. Can't we all just enjoy pizza without always separating us by crust preference?

If you're silent on this topic, you're complicit!

BRAVO

Oh please, every restaurant gets the occasional warning from the health inspectors. Your link shows a couple warnings issued since 2012, which were fixed. 90% of those reports are "met inspection standards"

Look up fathead pizza crust original recipe. It’s pretty darn good and puts cauli crust to shame. 😊

Your post gave me a chuckle. I feel the same way about Hawaiian pizza! I was actually on a low-carb diet recently. I was craving pizza, so I broke down and tried the cauliflower pizza at Piesano's in Deaton Plaza. To my surprise, it was delicious! You would never have known the crust wasn't dough. It is just like a thin crust pizza. I am no longer on the diet, but still order that cauliflower crust pizza whenever I go there.

Tried a cauliflower crust 'pizza' once - it was disgusting. All I could taste was cauliflower which literally makes me gag. In fact all gluten free 'pizzas' I've tried are, well, sort of edible, but are simply NOT pizza, just a funny tasting flatbread with stuff on it. Calling a cauliflower crust pizza is like calling fat free cheese … cheese. Nothing like the real thing. Tomato sauce is important too. Pizzas w/o sauce is not real pizza. Good crust is the best part of most pizzas. Can't stand it when people don't eat their crusts. Throwing them away boggles my mind. Pizza is one of my most favorite foods that I had to give up, haven't had one in months.
That said, does anyone know of any place where one could find a whole wheat or whole grain crust pizza around here?

I watch my diet very carefully and thought I could never eat pizza again. Pizza is not the crust that could bring my sugar out of site. If you eat pizza with me I eat the toppings off the pizza and love it. Cauliflower has lower carbs than pizza dough. This is a win for diabetics.

Talking bout cauliflower?

This only way I like cauliflower

My homemade crushed red peppers 🌶 it HOT. 50,000 plus on SH scale. Plus I pour my pickled peppers on them also.

As I stated earlier, to me the crust is what makes it "pizza". That being said, I have had any number of dishes called pizza and enjoyed them. I just thought the term "pizza" was a misnomer. While "a rose by any other name will smell as sweet", not every sweet smelling flower is a rose.
I applaud you for sticking to your diet. I know it isn't easy. But, imho, a "pizza" without the crust is a different type of meat and/or vegetable and/or cheese platter, still good, just not "pizza".

Hunter once conned me in trying a pizza that had phony meat toppings. He said it was the best way to go. I don't remember where we went to "try" this pizza out. (I think it was somewhere in Jacksonville, but I don't remember let alone care!) Anyway, although it tasted OK for what it was, I didn't care for it because it was not real!

The best pizza you can have should be all real with lots of cheese goo, spices that are hot but not too hot, and meat junk that is real and all real! If you're going to put anything else, top it off in tomato sauce loaded with more meat jazz!

If it wasn't for Cauliflower crust I would never be able to enjoy pizza. I'm allergic to wheat - white flour - and most other grains. Don't knock it. It works as an alternative!

Cauliflower pizza is just like almond milk. FAKE

Discuss.

As a vegetarian and wanabe vegan, I do not necessarily disagree. However, after you’ve been off meat and animal products for a long time stuff like that tastes much better than you might think, and then sometimes not. For me, cauliflower crust pizza is in the not column. There are much better vegetarian and even vegan crust alternatives. I suppose it’s all personal taste.

As far as vegetables, I dare you to watch Farm to Fridge and then be against them. Farm to Fridge: 12 Minutes to Change Your Life

I love vegetables. Veggies and fruits and grains, seeds, nuts, it's all good. But it is sacrilegious to pretend that you can make pizza dough out of cauliflower, and not wheat. My position is unassalable.
