I Don't Think We're In New York Anymore

From my home state, known for its prolific wheat production, comes a pizza with not a stitch of the grain that once adorned Kansas's license plates*.

The Wichita Eagle reports that a pizzeria there is now offering crustless, Atkins diet–style pies:

Hoping to get its slice of the Atkins Diet pie, Talliano's Pizza restaurantsat 8404 W. 13th St. and at 408 N. Baltimore, Derby, are offering crustless pizzas. Cooks start with a buttered 9-inch pizza pan and fill it with cheese, choice of meats and vegetables, then top it with pizza sauce and bake. The gooey invention is $3.99, or they'll put it on the buffet if someone requests it.

I've only visited Wichita a handful of times, and this story does nothing to change my impression of that town. That place is crazy. Pure and simple. Crazy.

More on Atkins-friendly pizza.

If you're looking for Atkins cookbooks, buy them from Amazon.

* The current plates forgo the jaunty wheat sprigs for a boring illustration of the state capitol.

Talliano's sucks, with or without crust.
