This Week's Poll Results: You Got to Know When to Fold 'Em

Looks like we're mostly folders. It was a 60-40 split in favor of the technique. But the binary nature of the question did not allow for such wisdom as doled out by jaysus in the comments: "I have no preference when it comes to folding a slice; sometimes I fold it, sometimes I do not. I let the slice decide."

That's pretty much my philosophy on folding, too. Although, for the most part, I try not to fold because I feel that it changes the nature of the slice. Instead of getting a bite of cheese-sauce-crust, you get a double billing of crust. For a really sloppy slice, though, there's almost no avoiding the fold.

And of course, as Alberto points out, this question is moot when it comes to deep dish. And outofprintbooks gets props for bringing up the subissue of flipping the tip back and introducing the notion of knife and fork making the pizza experience untranslatable. Thanks for answering. New poll TK on Monday.
