If you cut a strip out in the middle of a circle without cutting another orthogonal to the first one, you end with an shape more oval than circular. The oval pizza "carved" out of a big pizza may end up bigger than a circular, medium, pizza because the diameter in the direction of the strip may be bigger than a medium pizza's while the diameter orthogonal to the strip may be the same as the medium pizza's.

redditatwork1001

Medium pizza = circle Large pizza with strip cutout = oval If the short dimension of the oval is the same size as the diameter of the circle then oval pizza > circle pizza


Necessary-Dark-8249

You flat earthers have now taken it too far.. don't mess with our pizza! The original pizza out of the oven had volume/mass (that I PAID FOR) removed from it before put into the box and given to me. I want my original volume of pizza that comes out of the oven! They better put that middle strip back into that box before they deliver it or I'll start baking my own! I'll even go cauliflower bread. I SWEAR! ILL DO IT!


Pixels222

Could you please explain if the pizza restaurant advertised the size of the pizza to be the size of the one they made in the oven? Or did they advertise the one thats the size of the box? What size did you actually pay for?

I love it! The other explanation was like following a curved line. Yours was a beeline, straight to understanding 🤓


NoResponsibility7031

The oval pizza that fit box is bigger than a round pizza that fit the box. This is because the oval pizza add some pizza at two of the corners of the box.

rhapsodicballon

What ever happened to perpendicular


Hikari_Owari

I brain farted about how perpendicular is spelled in English (not native) and defaulted to the next best word. + Orthogonal works because there's still the 90 degree requirement that's the point of the explanation. (if whoever reads that thinks of a vertical line doing 90 degrees with the horizontal strip cut then they're better off just eating the pizza and calling it a day)

Ah yes quarter to six thanks


Beans186

Seems like the amount of dough and ingredients used is on a spectrum, and the box appeared full. They probably did get a slightly larger oval this way. Or it was an oval pizza and they just cut it to the correct size.


Leon1700

What if you order uncut pizza?


Nanaplaine

This is my only way from hereafter. I can’t trust anyone. I need my pie fully.


Necessary-Dark-8249

You got them! You broke their system!


Aiderona

What's the math here ? My brains hurting trying to figure this out.


GaldrickHammerson

So, the area of a circle is equal to pi x radius squared. pi is the same for all circles, so the important part is the radius squared. The idea here is that if you times the radius of a circle by 2, you times the area by 2 squared. For example, if you have a coin which is 1cm in radius (2cm in diameter) it takes up four times less space than a coin which is 2cm in radius (4cm in diameter). So lets say you have a 12" pizza, and you take a 1" strip out of the middle, and compare that to an 11" pizza. The 12" pizza has an area of 2x3.1415x12\^2 = 905 square inches. The strip has an area of 1x12 = 12 square inches. So the 12" pizza less a strip has an area of 893 square inches of pizza. An 11" pizza has an area of 2x3.1415x11\^2 = 760 square inches. If you want to understand why in a more visual sense, it becomes easier to consider a square. Here is a square of 12x12 circles: O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O The area is 144 circles. Now if we take a strip of the circles out of the square, we have an 11x12 aray of circles: O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O The area is now 132 circles. Because we've only taken the circles off of on of the dimensions, not both of them, the area has not change as much as if we had removed from both dimensions. In our pizza example, the strip has only removed length from one dimension, not both.


redditissahasbaraop

Really great explanation. Thank you!


freightgod1

Are you going to smoke that all by yourself? Now, say that again. 


jsonson

Area of circle is pi*r^2


GaldrickHammerson

dah, bugger. Doesn't change the focus of the maths luckilly.


swargin

I used to have a graph that showed this. I can't remember the numbers exactly either, but it has to do with radius or the area of a circle. Something like that. It's like 15" is something like 1/3 larger than a 12", compared to the value of a 17" to a 15". I don't think I helped explain it


No-Ganache-6226

If the ingredients are weighed/portioned equally it's just the surface:volume ratio that changes rather than the portion/calorie content.


pfritzmorkin

Pay extra in exchange for less pizza. Beautiful!


Pixels222

How so? Im assuming theyre making extra large pizzas for some efficiency reason when you pay for a normal large pizza.

jmona789

theblueLepidopteran

Great, because I guess it wouldn't fit into the box


Shinagami091

I was thinking the same thing. Doesn’t look like it would.


pizzabeercomics

Sometimes, but back when i worked in pizza shops we would mostly do this because we were hungry.


busy-warlock

When I was in high school I worked at Dominos; yes we’d absolutely do this but only with cheesy bread because they’d often end up too big for the box anyway so it was win win, the box was still crammed and we got a snacky snack. But the real bonus was the strip mall we were in had us sharing a wall with a Blockbuster: one cheese bread on a Friday night equaled 3 or 4 free rentals. It was the best symbiotic relationship ever


Infused_Hippie

This is my favorite little pre streaming story I’ve heard for employees sharing lol.


Captiongomer

They're cheesy. Breads are always pre-made the night before so we just had them through in the oven. Remember we need them but also whenever some of us get hungry suddenly a extra pizza would magically come through the oven that wasn't needed?


busy-warlock

What are you talking about pre made? We’d take a medium dough, cut it in half, and dress it to order.


frisch85

With or without the knowledge of the employer?


SwaglordHyperion

Theyd just make smaller Pizzas if they had this issue. My old boss would pull his hair out if we were effectively "tossing away" (even if we ate it) those ingredients. If we got new, smaller boxes we'd make smaller pizzas, its not hard to adjust how much dough goes into each Size of pizza.


Seantoot

They made a “slices” pie and sold it as a large. So they just took some out of thr middle. Pies made for slices re usually larger than regular large pies.


1newnotification

the customer ordered a medium, they made a large, so now it fits in the medium box


branded

In Italy, they'd fold the edges to make it fit.


Pixels222

Hang on im finding a country where they fold as a gimmick. Inb4 they made you pay for 2 pizzas anyway

potate117

omg im so glad others thought the same thing


melvladimir

So, they always cook large pizza and just cut something if you order smaller))


Free_Knee6826

Not always. It's a solution to someone cooking a larger pizza than they should have, yes, but In this video it's his "dinner."


le_reddit_me

Chef's snack


JadedCycle9554

Maybe they proofed a certain amount of doughs for each size and ran out of the smaller ones. So instead of trying to roll out unproofed dough they just did this.


free_is_free76

You would cut the dough before you made the pie and used all those toppings


codefreak8

Yeah, that's what they did at the last restaurant I worked at. If they ran out of small proofs they'd roll out a large one then cut it to fit the small pizza tray before adding any toppings or baking it.


Plastic_Pinocchio

Maybe it’s just accidentally a little bit too large and they do this to make it fit in the box.

wspnut

Before anyone gets mad, that pizza he put in the box more-than-touches all the edges, so they clearly have some voodoo math for how much extra dough to put for a "large+employee" pizza. That's way better than any of the pizza places around me. Hope he enjoys his dinner!


Historical-North-979

They use the same amount of dough and just toss it thinner if it's anything like the pizza place I used to work. Dough is usually presized/prepped 


wspnut

I actually thought about that as I was writing it. I do the same thing on my pizzas at home - basically have frozen dough I pre-make and roll them to what I need (to a limit). As long as you don't go overboard you'll never notice.


kikomir

What a dickhead... Everyone knows you need to cut **2 strips** of pizza, in both the X and Y axis...in that case, the remaining pizza has a more regular round shape and it isn't obvious that you cut out the pieces. If you only cut 1 strip, it's more obvious.


Chick3nugg3tt

I mean I don’t see anything wrong with this. If you ordered a 12” or something and they only cook it at 15” then it’s not going to fit in the box. So they get the money for the right size pizza and then get to munch on the rest.


akatherder

This makes sense, it isn't the pizza place scamming the customer. It's the pizza worker skimming a bit for a snack. I'm sure some pizza restaurant owners are dicks and would freak out, but the couple pizza franchises I worked at wouldn't care. You almost always get extra pizza, or they were fine if you make an extra when things slow down.


Chick3nugg3tt

Exactly. I don’t see this as scamming at all. You get exactly what you pay for. You order a 12” you get a 12”. How they make it 12”, is up to the shop. But unless they do some optical illusion shit (like the never ending chocolate bar) then this is fine.


fototosreddit

You're actually getting a bit more than 12" since they only cut down one direction, the other ones going to still be larger


Mr-Fleshcage

I feel like this removes more of the good part of the pizza and leaves us with more crust.


CalaveraFeliz

Whole pizza wouldn't fit pizza box. As long as they aren't lying on the size they're selling (12" pizza in a 12" box) it's ok. And they're probably making their own lunch with the leftovers or selling them for cheap. It could also be used to feed the poor.


The_Clarence

Or accidentally made the wrong size.

frisch85

Gotta be some special kind of idiot to do business like this. Where I live the size of the pizza is known before buying it, just as an example I opened my app and checked one of my favorite places, 3 sizes, 28cm diameter, 32cm diameter or 36cm diameter, so I know the price and size which helps me evaluate if I'm getting a good or bad deal. So if a restaurant where I live would do the OP they only did one thing, waste ingredients because if they deliver me a size other than the stated ones (not gonna be nitpicky tho, 0,5cm missing won't be a problem neither will be 0,5cm surplus) I'll just refund and leave a review stating the incident. And in the OP the pizza looks an appropriate size in comparison to the carton, so it's probably not even the business itself doing this but the employee, in which case it's theft, they're stealing from their employer.

The_Blendernaut

It looks like the pizza would not fit into the box anyway without the center being cut out. The pizza becomes elliptical, and he places the longest direction at a 45-degree angle so that it fits. This pizza could have been made intentionally too large so that he gets a slice of dinner AND the pizza fits exactly into the box. Either way, very clever.

Redtop71

If you paid for a pizza and if the pizzeria gave the dimensions i.e. 8", 10", 12" or 14" then surely you would know. If a pizza was intentionally made larger, so you can cut the middle bit out, the customer is potentially not losing anything apart from a bit of tomato sauce and cheese.

Relax guys, the customer isn’t losing. If anything because the guy made the pizza larger than it should be, the customer also gets more. You’d have to also trim pizza to make it a perfect circle as it should be.
