      I know I'm 4 years late but I think the idea of the joke food is whether or not it could be consumed in a serious situation, like a corporate workplace. You wouldn't go to the shareholders meeting of Blackrock with a peanut butter and jelly sandwich as lunch.

      It's because he's a manchild. He's deathly afraid of being seen as immature or childish, so he's overcompensating hard in the other direction. Consider this quote from C. S. Lewis: "When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up." NL hasn't reached this point yet. Maybe now that he has a child of his own he will.

    I vibe with Rob, broccoli was one of my top 5 veggies as a kid. But they completely ignored celery and that is unforgivable.

    All this time I am wondering if this Joke Food debate was purely created by NL to trigger as many people as possible.

      Fools, clearly pizza is a joke food, and pepperoni is a joke food, but isolating the pepperoni on a pizza is not a joke food in itself, but rather a part of a joke food.

      A joke food cancels out a joke food. Its like a double negative lol

      I would say pizza is a joke food, but pepperoni is a joke food only because it's a fake pizza topping
