I used to see them in the UK. Perhaps they're making the boxes stronger to save needing the plastic, or maybe it's just smaller pizzas/boxes don't need them.
One of the worst features is that it's a piece of plastic instead of the little ball of dough that they used to put on top of pizzas for the same purpose.
My dream is to eat at that little table that comes on top of the pizza that's on top of the little table that you're eating from that comes on top of the first pizza.
I haven't had a pizza with a little table in ages. Maybe I'm not getting pizza from the right places, but even the local chain I get pizza from doesn't use them on their extra larges.
I literally just learned last night that the little table is to hold the slice next to yours as you pull a piece, that way you’re not touching the next person’s slice with your grubby ass hands.
Maybe I should’ve said that you CAN use them as a way to avoid touching two slices when pulling your own. You pick it up, place it in the middle of the slice next to yours, and pull so you don’t touch the crust of the next persons slice. Probably a creative use for something that was originally intended to keep boxes from saggjng
It’s meant to be picked up, the feet placed on the next slice, and you pull your slice with your hand. It’s not like it stays in the middle.
I worked in pizza places for 10+ years and we never used them, so maybe their original intention was avoiding pizza box sag, I suppose I wouldn’t know. I guess we can just say using them to not touch the next slice as you pull your own is a more creative adaptive use
Thanks, now I'm hungry for a giant-ass pizza.
Not to be confused with a giant ass-pizza.
But that would be interesting as well.
Time for a relevant xkcd
Thanks, now I'm hungry for the ass of a giant.
The best I got is a giant ass.
Won "Best in Show" at the local fair.
Pics or it didn't happen!
Maybe pizza box technology has improved because I haven't seen these things in a long time sadly
I was thinking the same thing. Anyone under the age of 20 has got to be scratching their head at this meme.
I'm under 37 and also scratching my (European) head. Is this one of those insane US things?

Depending on the chain they still come on some pizzas our side of the ocean.
Not a US thing.
Unfortunately, they're just cutting cost. My recently ordered pizza was ripped off and stuck to the box. Had to scrape it off .
Lame

We've been bamboozled.
They have played us for absolute fools.
It's even better, though. It's made of pizza.
But did you think about what barbie and the ninja turtles need? No you only think about yourself.
That sounds tasty, but we kinda need these for Barbie props that inevitably fill landfills.
I'd call him Bobby. Little Bobby Tables.
I hope you are happy that we lost the entire pizza recipe database.
And I hope we all learned to sanitize our database inputs!
It would be awesome to have a life sized version of the 3 legged pizza table on a pizza area rug
This sounds like a $20 The Sims DLC.
I just dream of square pizza in round box
Does the little pizza on the three-legged table come with an even smaller three-legged table?
Of course, you need somewhere to sit after all.
You better limit that recursion or imma smack you with a RecursionError

How high are you?

A while ago we (humans) learnt how to actually make boxes so the tables aren’t necessary anymore
Even longer before that, we used to have a ball of dough on the pizza to keep the pizza from touching the box.
So that's what happened? How did we do that?
Thicker/corrugated cardboard
Someone should replace the smaller pizza with stroganoff.
Beef, ooooor.....beeeeeean?
That’ll be a NORMAL stroganoff thank you. Sans the beans.
Fair enough
Somebody send this to Mr. Beast.
Dr. D Flow might be able to make this come true.
What's the little table used for, sure I seen a short video explaining I've been using it wrong,but don't remember.
Lucid dream challenge accepted. NOM NOM NOM

I heard it was so the pizza box didn't sag and touch the pizza
Yup. This is the official use of it 🙃

Isn’t that a sign the pizza is too big? Never seen these things before…
They stopped using these awhile ago. I actually forgot these were on every pizza when I was a kid.
Nope. 3 legs and how many slices? It's for pizza box sag. Former pizza guy.
