    Chuck E. Cheese pizza is a modern age folktale all on its own. From the infamous docuseries, to all of the other theories spread across KRplus and the internet at large, we ALL know what this theory is going to be about. Is Chuck E Cheese pizza recycled? Do the employees use uneaten pizza slices from previous patrons to build "new" pizzas that they then serve to other customers? Food Theorists, our team is out to prove whether that is true or just a piece of hot, cheese fiction!

    I think they have combined fresh slices from different pizzas. You can order a single slice, right? Let's say there are 8 slices in a pizza. If a table of 5 all orders one slice, you have 3 leftover. If this happens at 3 tables, you now have enough to combine the extras into one full pizza.
    Rather than wait for individuals to eat the extra slices, they can use them to create a new pizza while they are still fresh.

      That's what I was thinking, but the fact that the dine-in was removed from the equation (thanks COVID) throws that theory out the window. You can only order single slices if you eat there, not for takeout.

    My friend worked at a Chuck E Cheese for a year, you can purchase single slices here in Michigan, but sometimes when they made extra Pizza and they took slices from a freshly made Pizza, they would add those slices to the pizza where single slices were served so the customer wasn’t receiving less than what they paid for. They discard pizzas after 25 minutes if they haven’t been sold or touched, I dont know if its like that everywhere else but that is the reason to why some pizzas are janky here in Michigan

    Hey MatPat, just something to help confirm your theory, I was a Chuck E Cheese employee from a few months before the "Recycled Pizza Theory" to a few months after. I was one of the few people in charge of making/cutting and even serving the pizza. I can confirm that we did NOT recycle the pizza. The blade being the cause of the jankeyness of the pizza is true, besides none of us were pro pizza makers so it was gonna look kinda crappy. The reason some of the pizza from the Delivery was cut better is because we did have a circular pizza cutter as well but we were only able to use it for delivery so it "looked better". We mainly just used the rocking blade because we were really busy and needed to get the pizza out Fast. Also, im going to tell on myself a little bit... I did try to bring pizza to the back, however it was not to recycle it but because I had recently become homeless and could not afford to buy food so I would sneak food out as much as I could and if it came from other peoples uneaten slices, it did not matter to me. Anyway, you are 100% correct.

    Former Chuck E Cheese "Cast Member" here. My manager was the cheapest of them all. If I dropped a pepperoni on the floor, he would take it out of my paycheck, and I was only 16. With that being said, every pizza I made was a new pizza. Each one went through the oven on a pizza liner, was then placed onto a cutting board, and cut by the slicer the employee mentioned in the video (almost every pizza place uses this blade). After it's cut, a metal paddle is precariously placed under the cut pizza, and then the pizza is "jooshed" into a tray with many little nibs that allow air to flow under the crust for cooling. However, they also jostle the pizza slices upon entry, making each piece look uneven and displaced. I had a 14-year old co-worker who used a glove and inserted each piece by hand because the manager would chew him out for poor "presentation." Dancing in the rat suit was therapeutic compared to working that kitchen.

    As an actual employee of Chuck e cheese, you got pretty much everything right. I've seen hundreds of pizzas made and all the janky edges just come from the way we cut and plate them. Also, if you ever do see an employee take leftover pizza to the kitchen area, it almost always means that the thank you boxes need to be emptied and they're going to dump the leftovers in one of our larger trash cans in the back. If you ever have more questions Matt, feel free to ask me.

      As a former Starbucks barista and barista trainer, that’s not a thing. At all. Customers will mumble, walk away too quickly, not give a name, tell you to “spell it however you want”, even give you a joke name on purpose, etc. And a whole lot of baristas can’t spell, don’t listen to the customer, forget right after they asked because they’re super busy, or sometimes they don’t even try to get it right(believe me, I really had my work cut out for me trying to train some people).

      Honter Minjares with the way the more extreme misplaces are I feel like you would see crust on part of the sides and unless they cut it twice the cheese would make it look uncut, so it’s definitely cut after. I believe it’s the cutting utensil, the fact that they transfer what’s holding it twice, the weight of the slices, and when they’re busy they probably don’t have time to worry about the shape that makes the pizza like that.

  • @tihSyMtaE
    @tihSyMtaE 년 전 +8

    I learned a decade ago, that when you order pizza for takeout or delivery, always ask them to not cut your pizza. The grease doesn’t soak through into the crust, and if you want to reheat the entire pizza, when you get home, you can just simply drop it into your oven and one full pizza and then cut it yourself at home. No more soggy, pizza crust bottoms, or nasty oil soaked pizza boxes in my house!

  • @Littlepup93
    @Littlepup93 년 전 +6

    Used to work at Pizza Hut a while ago. We used the rocking cutters too, and it does make a difference, especially if you're trying to rush through cutting six pizzas and throw them in the boxes. Pizzas that were lighter on the cheese or sauce didn't like to stay together nice and pretty, whereas your normal cheese might slide nice and neat from the cutting board into the box.
    As for dine-in, a lot of the pizzas were cut on the board we'd serve in the dining room (except for the pan pizzas, which would go back in their deep dish pan and on a corkboard) so there was less chance for jostling or sliding. It still happened time to time, of course.
    Another way these pizza could end up looking wrong is if the crust ended up too thin on the bottom. Not enough support, so slices might cave a bit in the middle and slide inward, giving a jagged edge. All this just comes down to human error.
    If a pizza was actually frankensteined back together, you'd know. Slices would just taste different on account of reheating. Say you replaced three slices of a pizza with an older one. Because the older slices have cooled down, the cheese now has a different texture. You need to reheat it. But where the old slices will just have the cheese remelt, the fresher pizza will start to burn. In my experience, reheated pizza cheese also just has a bit more of a rubbery texture.

    3:00 I remember when fnaf first came out and I went to Chuky E. cheeses (for school fundraiser at least 20-50% of their overall income of that day would go back to schools) I dreamt of something like the area in Fnaf Security Breach where Vanessa was telling Freddy he would get a new endoskeleton, it was yellow, dark, blue, with hints of gray, pipes running along walls, in front of you, and something lurking, something behind a glass area (like Freddy’s upgrade station in FNAF SB, it had red eyes, that sometimes glowed different colors, and claws to match thes raspy, almost empty voice, it would lunge at me, those were the days, now for some reason I kept trying to have nightmares, about escaping the SCP facility (I did in a dream and somehow moved onto a Piggy game??) a continued zombie apocalypse story line etc (the SCP escape would take place over 7 years of irl life, crazy, same with Freddy’s E Cheeses)
    Edit:when I went to Mexico once I went to a Chuck E Cheeses and their pizza was not at all like our American counter part, it look perfect at the time (before pandemic i wanna say 2017? Around there maybe a year behind or ahead)

    I always just assumed that they bake whole pizzas, then some people just order 1 slice, or 3 slices instead of a whole pizza. Which means that Chucky Cheese has a bunch of pizzas left with a few slices taken out of them, and then when someone does order a whole pizza they just combine all the pieces they have left so they don't waste a whole pizza everytime someone just orders a few slices.

    The pizza you kept showing at the beginning that was half cheese half pepperoni was clearly just that. They cooked a whole cheese pizza and a whole pepperoni pizza, cut em in half, and smooshed them together. If I had to guess, they mass prep and they ran out of the half cheese and half pepperoni so they just made the two to save time as opposed to preparing a whole new pizza during the rush.
