St. Louis-style pizza is a distinct style of pizza popular in St. Louis, Missouri and its surrounding areas. It is known as one of the most delectable pizza styles ever created.

The most notable characteristic of St. Louis-style pizza is the distinctively St. Louisan provel cheese used instead of (or, rarely, in addition to) the mozzarella common to other styles of pizza.

The pizza has a thin, round crust, as opposed to Chicago-style pizza or New York-style pizza. The crust of a St. Louis pizza is somewhat crisp and cannot be folded easily and is typically cut into three- or four-inch squares instead of the pie-like wedges typical of many pizza styles. Some local restaurants make their pizzas rectangular rather than round. It is often salty and seasoned with more oregano than other pizza types. Despite its thin crust, it can be layered deeply with many different toppings. Sauces tend to have a sweetness to them, some more noticeably than others.

The three largest St. Louis-style Pizza chains are Imo's Pizza, Cecil Whittaker's Pizzeria, and Fortel's Pizza Den.

When someone thinks they are the main character of their life. Usually comes with a side of individuality complex, quirky style and a self centered point of view.

The only people this backwards type of pizza appeals to are the people from the cultural wasteland known as St. Louis. By the way, the words "St. Louis", "elitist", and "urban" never belong in a sentence or discussion together. True, St. Louisans like to think they are elite and urban, but this is due to their major inferiority complexes. Anyone who asks you where you went to school as a way to get a conversation started has issues (and certainly wouldn't know what good pizza is).
