Sarpino's pizza

Went to an Alamo Drafthouse while stuck in New York on business, and to my surprise they actually had a vegan pizza option with Daiya Cheese. I'm usually skeptical of these as the only other I have had is from Sarpinos (and it ain't great) but this one was delicious.
Anyone else know of other places that offer dairy free pizza?

Hello. Yes, it's me. I'm the Calzone tour guy. At least half of the Calzone tour boys. This is not an announcement of a tour, but rather a retirement notice. My friend u/joemeister44 and I have now eaten probably about 95% of all calzones in the Kansas City area, and throughout 4 tours have found good, bad, and mediocre calzones. I'm here to tell you the best one, along with the rankings of all of them.
We decided to do a sort of "all-stars" round where we just went to the top 3 places from before to see if their consistency was good. That will be shown in the rankings below.
Our previous rankings for the top three were:
Sarah's (now Chentes) on the Hill: 10
Grimaldi's: 9.25
The Combine: 9.
And now I will announce the best calzone in Kansas City to be...... (please play a drum roll sound effect on whatever device you have near then proceed to read)
GRIMALDI'S IN OVERLAND PARK!
The other two simply flopped and heavily disappointed while we were once again impressed with the soft calzone from Grimaldi's. You must try it.
Now for the full rankings.
Ratings were the average between myself, and a friend's vote.
Grimaldi's: 9.5 (previously 9.25)
Simple Simon's: 8.5
Dewey's Pizza: 8.5
Giambalvo's: 8.5
Jovitos: 8.25
Cupini's: 7.5
Chentes On The Hill: 7 (previously 10)
Sarpinos: 7
Dominic's: 7
Nick's Pizza: 7 (best price!)
Pizza 51: 6
Minsky's: 6
Buffalo State Pizza: 6 (updated from 5.5)
Bella Napoli: 5.5 (one of us loved, one of us hated.)
Viona's: 5
Grinders Pizza (not stonewall): 5
Leone's Original Pizza: 4.5
The Combine: 4 (previously 9)
Mama Leone's: 2
Italian Delight: 2
Thank you to everyone who joined us from the beginning, the middle, or even the end. I appreciate you all. And most thanks goes to u/joemeister44 who doesn't get enough credit as is. Wouldn't dream of doing it with anyone else (doing it being the calzone tour). Get eating, KC!

To preface, I am on the road a lot for work. I drive 800-1000 miles a week. As such I often turn to fast food to feed myself. I order through apps, so I know the order is placed correctly, since ordering through a speaker or over the phone can cause confusion.
Lunch: I ordered Taco Bell veggie Mexican pizza fresco. I open up the box, and on top of the yummy beans, I see dead cow. Annoying AF, but they make me a new one.
Dinner: I ordered Sarpino's pizza. They now have a vegan deep dish pizza with field roast pepperoni. I get there and open the box to see dairy parmesan sprinkles on top. Gross AF. They offer to make it again. So I wait at the store an extra 30 minutes while a new one cooks. The owner's son hands it to me and says, "the thing with vegan cheese is that it doesn't melt." I open the box and the cheese isn't melted at all. It's almost as if they didn't even put it in the oven. They have a huge sign in the front window "vegan options available." Too bad they didn't teach their son what vegan means, or teach him how to cook a pie.
Sorry for my rant. Just frustrated.

Hi Reddit Victoria, my name is Kyle and I’m the ProduceCo-Host of the MicCHEK Podcast in Victoria: https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/micchek/id1545068281. We’ve never made a post like this before but we’re hoping Victoria’s Reddit users can help us out. We’re on a mission to taste and rank every pizza by the slice in Greater Victoria and could use your help. With the help of our Pizza Panel we’ve compiled a list of every place we can think of that sells pizza by the slice but we’re fairly certain we’re missing some spots. We figured if anyone can help, it’s probably the knowledgeable folks on this site. Below are the spots we’ve come up with. Anyone know what we’re missing?
Keating, Top Dog, Oreganos, Brickyard, Hot House, Superior, Pizzability, Ali Baba, Whole Foods, Fresh Slice Second Slice, Villages, Fernwood, Pizza Al Forno, Pirate Pizza, The Joint, Local Pizza Hillside, La Pasta, Delicious Pizza & Pasta, Great Canon, LOCAL Pizza, Pizza Factory, Pizazz Pizza, Sarpinos Downtown, Quality Foods, Fresko One World, 7/11, Thriftys?

I know this is not about colonoscopy but I’ve never ever struggled with stomach aches. Im a 22F 125 pounds. I’m very healthy. But back in January I went to Mexico and got food poisoning. Every since then things have been different. I still poop at least once or twice sometimes 3 times a day but one of those times I’ll have fatty stools that float. I’d say around a number 6 on a poop diagram. All of a sudden I had sarpino’s pizza which I’ve had many many times before and I woke up the next morning with a stomach ache + back ache and had diarrhea the whole day. Not like running to the bathroom diarrhea but I went about 5 times that day. The ache lingered to the next day. Today I tried a low-fab breakfast and I was fine but I had a cookie after dinner and woke up with a stomach ache. I don’t know what’s going on. This is very new to me as I’ve never had this before. It just came on all of a sudden and I’m getting scared to eat. Please help. I don’t wanna go to the doctor because I know they will just put a Bandaid on it sadly.

Today I tried a low-fab breakfast and I was fine but I had a cookie after dinner and woke up with a stomach ache @5 am. I had a normal help stool which was probably from dinner last night. But right after that I had diarrhea.I don’t know what’s going on. This is very new to me as I’ve never had this before. It just came on all of a sudden and I’m getting scared to eat. Please help. I don’t wanna go to the doctor because I know they will just put a Bandaid on it sadly.

With the recent addition of Papa John's in Victoria, I am curious to see what people's favorite pizza delivery places are. Also, what's the best place for a PROPER new York pie / slice?
I am personally loving Papa John's, I haven't been able to get a real (DELIVERY) new York pie from anywhere else that isn't insanely salty or just plain bad. Dominos and sadly Sarpinos just do not do it justice at all.

Christmas night everything tasted off. Not bad but not good. Found these cheese sandwiches that i ended up eating my dinners worth of that looking back had a bit of a sour taste but far and away better than anything else that we had at the pot luck style Christmas exchange but i didn't think much of it.
The next day they were giving away free whoppers when you spend a dollar at the bk by the mall and i thought it had been a long time since i had been to bk why not? I get the burger and coke and after choking down a couple of bites of the burger i thought i see why its been so long. Then i take a drink of the coke and it tasted like jet fuel luckly i had a large bottle of water that i quickly finished and an apple from my lunch earlier in the week so i didn't think much of it. Not until the next morning when the wife was cooking bacon and egg sandwiches. Instead of that classic bacon smell flowing through the house all i could smell was stale herb roasted bread that has been thrown into an oven on broil until its ash.
I had recently just started getting my smell back after losing it in mid August that being the only symptom i had other than the day before i noticed the fact i couldn't smell it though my mask when i smacked the top of the fresh basil plants in the store because i said to myself " You had a headache yesterday now you can't smell i bet the rona found me." Yep sure enough my smell was gone but not even as much as a sniffle. I deliver food for uber eats and it used to bother me a little that i could travel 10 miles with a pizza in a bag next to me and not smell a thing but i roll my window down and the pizza hasn't even touched the customers hands yet and they say " OMG it smells sooooooo good!!! How do you do it? It smells soooooo amazing!!! I long for those days because it's to the point i can't even deliver a Sarpinos pizza much less eat one.
Thankfully for that little glimmer of light i can smell mostly bad smells not very much else so im like Mr. Bean picking up food smelling it and putting it back on the plate holding my nose and waving my hand in front of my face.
Since then i have been on a diet of fruits, roots, and cheese.

I love a good slice of pizza but don't need whole pizzas in my life. I was a bit surprised at the relative lack of options in this city, however. I can only think of :

1. Brickhouse
2. Sarpino's downtown
3. Freshslice :(

None of those have wowed me but out of all of them, I've only really returned to Brickhouse (although I find sometimes they aren't open when I'd expect them to be). Am I missing anywhere? I must be. I know we aren't Vancouver but I'm surprised there's not a thin-crust place (or a Garden pizza!) filling the gap.
// asking the important questions

TL;DR cop follows me around gas station at 11pm hitting on me, gets mad when I reject him, follows me for a bit on my walk home
This is pretty tame compared to other times I’ve been harrassed, but it kinda freaked me out since the harrasser in this case was a police officer in uniform and (I assume) on shift.
Last year I was living in a big US city and my apartment was about a 30 minute walk from one of my best friends place. I didn’t have a car at the time so I walked everywhere. I’d usually go to their place about once a week to hang out, often staying kinda late. Sometimes I’d get home as late as midnight. I’m a mid 20s woman, but I’m also brave (or stupid maybe) so I didn’t sweat it too much. We both lived pretty close to downtown so there were usually plenty of people around, which can be a good thing or a bad thing.
There’s a gas station down the street from their place and I wanted to pick up some sandwiches and snacks so I stopped by on the way home. We had gotten pizza earlier and my friend gave me the leftovers. Unfortunately the pizza box did not fit in my bag so I’m walking around with a pizza box in my arms.
So I get into the gas station and a cop near the entrance calls out to me. With a very serious face he says, “I’m sorry, you can’t have that in here. I’m going to have to confiscate it,” pointing at my pizza. I’m pretty gullible and don’t always pick up on sarcasm so I shrug and go to give him the pizza. Tbh the pizza sucked ass anyways, don’t buy Sarpinos. He busts up laughing because he can’t believe I was dumb enough to fall for that. Annoying, but I laugh along and joke politely.
I turn and start walking into the store, at which point he tells me, “Ok, but you really can’t have your bag in here.” I laugh and tell him “fool me once…” but he’s serious this time so I give him my backpack. Kind of weird but I guess people steal a lot at that store.
Now I start walking into the store for real, when I realize he’s following me. He starts talking, asking about my night, typical stuff. I’m giving vague answers, being polite and laughing, but not looking at him and trying to give off “go away please” vibes. Then he starts telling me how pretty I am. Fuck.
Very quickly he’s asking for my number and asking if we want to be “friends” and of course when I say no, I have a BF and plenty of friends, he insists it’s not like that. At this point he has followed me around the store for probably five loops and is walking incredibly close right behind me, keeps brushing up against me. His tone is starting to get a little aggressive/offended. “What, I’m not good enough to be your friend? You think you’re too good for me?” etc. I was just waiting for him to start calling me a bitch, but thankfully he did not! Still super uncomfortable at this point. He is an armed police officer starting to pull an agressive tone with me, I am alone, it’s 11pm and I have a 20 minute walk home.
I get my backpack, checkout, get my shit and go. I’m practically jogging out the door. I glance behind me when I’m a few feet out the door and he’s standing on the other side of the glass staring at me. This gas station has an unusually large parking lot/pump area between the store and the sidewalk. I hoof it across and when I make it to the sidewalk, this fucker has left the store and is following me.
I call my friend and I’m winded and freaking out a bit, but manage to explain what’s going on. They are PISSED and very worried about me and promise to stay on the line, asking me to share location, is he still there, etc. I walk as fast as my little legs can carry me, looking over my shoulder all the while. He’s just walking behind me, staring, blank look on his face & totally silent. Creepy as fuck.
After a few blocks or so, he gave up. I didn’t see where he went but he disappeared and I didn’t see him again. A happily anticlimactic ending for me. My friend stayed with me on the phone until I got into my apartment and locked the door behind me. Never went back to that gas station tbh.
I guess nothing really “happened” but at the time it was pretty scary. And unfortunately I have tons of stories like this— i.e. the time two guys tried to grab my arm and walk me out of a gas station to “party.”
