C.p.Sun.: Do you think it's dumb for a calzone place to automatically put peppers and onions in?

brought to you by a convo. d.h.&I just had about a place we ordered from that did this

I don't like peppers either, but most the time with pizza I just automatically expect them. I'm guessing they weren't listed in the ingredients.

My vote was "no" but that's assuming that somewhere on their menu it says that all calzones come with onions and peppers.

I really like onions & peppers-- however, does the calzone usually have them? I thought, traditionally, it's just the meat/cheese/sauce & dough?

I don't think it's dumb.

I think onions and peppers are icky. So yes.

I put ss because I think it depends on the type of calzone. If it is something like chicken parm, then peppers and onions do not belong in it. A veggie calzone or a steak and cheese would be fine with peppers and onions. Either way, they should be listed with the ingredients and not just thrown in.

They literally come in every calzone unless you say otherwise.  It says this in super small print somewhere randomly on the menu.

Yeah that's strange that they don't make it very clear. When I think calzone in think plain cheese is the "standard"....and now I want one.

@Dani428 - Yea.  When we brought it back they didn't even say, "O, they always come w/those", so the next time we ordered it happened again.  Luckily that time someone told us, but also said it happens all the time.  Don't know why they don't make it more clear on the menu then (like put it IN the calzone section).

If it happens all the time why wouldn't they change it - that would irritate me too lol. No really - I want one now :-w

reallylongusername

@Dani428 - L.o.l., sorry.  If it makes you feel better, I don't think I've had one since then (I think I may have been pregnant w/d.d.).

Dani428

No it makes me sad for both of us @reallylongusername‌ lol!!

I love peppers and onions, so personally I wouldn't mind having those included free of charge. However, when I think of a calzone, I think of two to three main ingredients: the bread pocket, cheese (mozzarella and/or ricotta) and possibly a cured meat. Everything else is optional.
