Edit: It will never cease to make me laugh that I get more genuinely serious discussion comments on my meme posts in /c/Memes than anywhere else. I'm not hating, I love it.
Edit 2: Chicago-Style deep dish pizza isn't pizza go fuck yourself
Counterpoint - pizzas are sold by diameter, but pretty much everyone I know underestimates how diameter corresponds to actual pizza size and think a 16" pizza is twice as big as an 8" pizza instead of four times as big, which it actually is. Meanwhile, a burger patty that is twice as big as another one is actually twice as tall, while one that is wider is only about ~41% wider. Vertical dimension is more intuitive for the overall mass difference.
Just sell by patty weight.
Until you start selling a 1/3 lb burger to outcompete the 1/4 lb burger, but people are "4 is more than 3!" so your marketing fails...
Them later advertising it as 3/9ths is pretty funny though.
"The one on the right is better because the thingy is lifting it higher and the arrow is pointing to it!" -- idiots, probably
Could just switch to grams. Selling by fraction is the problem not by weight itself.
I say this as an American, but these are Americans confused by the concept of fractions. Using grams would likely terrify them more.
And a 1/4lb is 4 oz, which sounds too small (compared to 8-10oz steaks that some people consume). So a 5.33 or even 5.5 oz burger doesn’t sound much bigger.
Yeah most people would think 4 is more than 3! while 3! is actually 50% more than 4.

!unexpectedfactorial@sopuli.xyzBut a third is less than a quarter!
Um... unfortunately, that doesn't work, either. ::facepalm::
Well obviously more slices = more pizza.
