The crust at this legendary pizza spot is the thinnest in NJ

I know I know. Everybody thinks they have the best thin-crust pizza around. And you say you’ve had the thinnest-crust pizza ever. But if you haven’t been to Pete and Elda’s, you really haven’t.

Put it this way... I’m not a big girl, and the crust is so thin I can eat an entire pie by myself. In fact, they always have this challenge going on: the whole pie eater challenge.

The rules are simple…finish an entire XXL pie in one sitting (30 minutes or less) by yourself, and win a T-shirt.

The pies are 18 inches in diameter making each slice almost a foot long.

I’ve got my own challenge for you. As this is no ordinary pizza restaurant, I challenge you to try it out. And report back if you think it’s even similar to any other NJ pizza you’ve ever had. If you know, you know.
