There's one place locally here that I have never been to, mostly because it's the wrong direction from my house to town. It's clear on the other side of town. But a few coworkers of mine live in the area and occasionally bring the food.
One of them brought in the left overs of one of their... chicken bacon ranch, something something. Can't remember exactly what it was, other than delicious. And the crust made up a very negligible part of that deliciousness. Most of the local places here use relatively thin crusts, with not a lot of extra around the edges. The two most popular local pizza places have the toppings right up to the edge.
I like pizzas with a a thicker crust around the edge. With a slight amount of sauce and cheese covering the inside edge of the crust that gets baked on and crusty. A lot of people I have ate pizza with in the past don't eat the crusts. They'll toss the crust pieces back into the box, bare. I actually like the crust pieces, with a slight hint of sauce and toppings on the edge. Of course, not pieces left by others...
It reminds me of when I was a kid. On the weekends we used to go to Pizza Hut, and my brother and I would sit in the waiting area on these tabletop two player arcade machines playing pac-man or something like that. Then we'd get our pizza, we'd eat it, and leave the crusts. Then take the crusts home and the parents would rent a movie on the way home and when we got home we'd watch it while eating the left over crust pieces.
I really enjoy the smell of walking into a Pizza Hut. Even if I don't care much for their pizza these days. Not sure if their pizza has changed, or if my tastes have, but I find it very greasy and undercooked each time I've had it in recent years.
