Is 4 large pizzas double sliced too few? 12 kids and 15 adults

If I go to the bounce house for a 2 hour party, and there is pizza after, I might take one double cut slice, and if I brought my 12 year old to a party for his little brother's age group, and I see that there are only 4 pizzas, I'll say "the pizza is for the little kids, you can take 1 or 2 slices, but leave the rest for them, we'll have dinner at home."

But if I'm invited over to watch the Stanley cup with my kids, and we're going to be there all evening, then we'll eat our fill, which for me as an adult woman would be 4 to 6 double cut slices, depending on what else there is, and for my 12 year old would be more than that. I would guess that 27 people you'd want an average of 2.5 - 3 slices (so 4 - 6 double cut slices) so 10 pizzas.

I think this post is spot on.

I've hosted many kid parties and parents never eat much at venue parties. I always order extra pizzas just in case - my kids will eat the leftovers over the next few days - but all the moms are on diets and won't touch the pizza; maybe a dad or two will grab a slice.

It’s not evough for fat Americans

Do you expect the adults to eat? If so, yes. That's too few by... at least several pizzas.

People from other countries always provide more than enough food for their guests, as well.

But good job, little buddy - you tried your best!

People from other countries like to provide lots of shitty party pizza nobody really wants to eat?

Had a home party for 13-14 kids- all 2-8 years old- and 10 adults and had 4 Ledo 18-inch pizzas plus fruit plus applesauce pouches plus cake. I say home party because it was likely less running around compared to a play place or laser tag or a pool party. The ledo 18 inch is 4-6 adults. 30 squares assumes 5-7 squares per adult. 120 squares total divided by 24 guests is 5 per guest.

We had maybe 1/4 of pizza left and 2-3 adults didn't eat pizza. We- the hosts- did not include ourselves in the adult count as the food was for our guests but once everyone had eaten we did eat some. Some kids had one square some had 4 squares. Some parents won't eat, some will eat a full plate.

It also depends on timing. If your party is 2-4 I don't expect a full meal. If its 10-1, 10-12, 11-1, 12-2,4-6, 3-5 then yes the kids will eat. If its a pool party or any high-activity party, they will eat more.

Not sure what “party pizza” is, but yeah, good hosts provide more than enough food for guests, instead of too little.

Who freezes pizza leftovers?

We always do.

+1 weird comment. Think this isn’t uncommon.

I can’t imagine being cheap enough to freeze pizza. Either eat it while it’s fresh or toss it. What is this, the Great Depression?

What a snobby thing to say. FYI really good pizza is so delicious cold the next morning for breakfast!

I guess you haven't been to too many venue parties in America. if you don't know what party pizza is. Seems like you just want to trash "Americans" and thought this was a good opportunity. But by the way, all cultures serve the crap pizza at venue parties. It doesn't better depending on whose serving it. If there are 11 pizzas at your party vs 6 at someone else's I'm not going to be blown away at how rich and gracious you are. It's not really that impressive.

You seem confused about which PP you’re responding to.

Not really. Either you're the one pretending to be dumb about pizza served at kid parties or you're the one who likes to claim only immigrants know how to host. You don't need "more than enough' you need enough. That's it. Wasting food for show is pathetic.

I don’t know if you have some sort of brain damage, or if you’re just trolling.
