When I was a teen working at Little Caesar’s, we set up a giant elastic band in our back door, and would launch our expired dough balls at the Burger King drive-thru window across the street. Then they’d call us and yell. Fun times.
LMAO… I would have loved to see them flying through the air!!
if the dough is unusable then there’s really not much choice about what to do with it. I suppose you could partially cook it before tossing it, but that’s a high cost option with regards to time, energy usage, and oven space.
Add twice as much water, stir until liquid, toilet.
I’m imagining imagining world’s worst fatberg and then doubling it after resting.
this is the yeast of my problems
why not just make yeast expand for as long as possible? idk anything about cooking pizzas nor yeast
why not just make yeast expand for as long as possible
The expanding part isn’t making more dough, it’s just eating starch and making carbon dioxide it’s more or less a spongy balloon.
if you walk over there with a shovel and whack it a few times it’ll deflate back into the original volume.
if you take a ball of pizza dough and let it rise and cook it, you’ll get a loaf of bread.
So the early 90s movies were telling us the truth about ooze after all?
Pizza the hut ate himself to death in there !
Pictures you can smell.
Really? Excuse my ignorance but I thought baker’s yeast doesn’t smell that bad?
To be fair, he didnnt say it smells “bad”…
Raw pizza dough smells nice
(and tastes nice, although i’ve heard you have to be careful now with salmonella in the flour, even though it doesn’t have eggs)
First time I’ve looked at a dumpster and thought “I bet that smells delicious”
These look like a props from a Troma film.

So how do you get rid of old dough?
If you let it fully ferment it’ll turn into a flat goo
Make some pancake
You paint it orange and make it president.
Shit I can’t breathe
Dumpster diving again there bud? …baker tosses in another batch of ever expanding stuff.
Flush it down the toilet
PSA: Kidding aside, never do this.
What would happen?
Yeast is anaerobic, meaning that it doesn’t need access to air to metabolize sugars into CO2. So it’s not gonna stop expanding once down the drain. Add to that the very sticky dough surrounding it, and you basically have a recipe ideal for clogging a sewer drain.
Imagine if you shoved a tampon into the dough ball.
You can make dough liquid by adding water.
You’ll piss off the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
Salt it. Salt blocks yeast.
Cook it first
That’s where the flavor comes from
Which Peppes pizza is that in the bottom right?
Edit: Peppes pizza -skjold in Bergen.
How did you identify that as peppes let alone Bergen? Like, the hue of the sauce?
I spent several years working at Peppes and so I could recognise the sauce anywhere, Ragn sells is the company that provides dumpsters in Bergen, and nothing happens in Norway.
I don’t know, sometimes the Oslo metro crashes into a building, Tesla’s swim in fjords, and nuclear armageddons are nearly triggered.
But yeah that makes sense if you worked at one 🤣
It hungers.
