Axios readers share their thoughts on The Pie after Portnoy review

• Some internet sleuths went as far as to claim that The Pie baked Portnoy a special pie to earn a favorable review.

Yes, but: The Pie later clarified it has always served thin-crust pizza.

Here's what readers shared about the debate:

By the numbers: About 58% of survey respondents said they knew The Pie served thin-crust pizza, and nearly 42% said they weren't aware.

• Around 61% of respondents said they prefer the thin version, vs. almost 39% who said they favor traditional crust.

What you said: "Who cares whether or not they serve thin crust, cause their thick crust is dope!"

• "Thin crust is less greasy and tastes better."
• "Too bad they don't advertise the thin crust. I stopped going years ago because the goo was just too much."
• "Been out of college 45 years. I haven't eaten at The Pie since I was in college because I hate thick, gooey crust pizza. Now that I know they have thin crust, I'm going to try them again."

• "Both versions [are] great, but the less-filling thin crust gets the win."
• "Now [that] I know they have a thin crust option, I'll probably consider going there more often."

The bottom line: Survey takers agree The Pie's thin crust outshines its signature thick crust — and we agree.
