Is Flatbread Different From Pizza?

Last week our Wobbly Boots Roadhouse blog posed the question, "Is a wrap a sandwich?" This week we were curious about another one of our menu items that could be called by another name. Are the delicious flatbreads we serve at our family friendly restaurant in Des Moines considered pizza, or are they something else entirely? 

As we told you last week, sandwiches and wraps have differing definitions, so technically there is a a difference between the two. Even though many people would love to argue that pizzas and flatbreads are not the same food, none of the research that we uncovered proved that as a fact. While toppings and types of crusts may differ, they actually are considered a similar dish. 

Pizza is defined as a yeasted flatbread typically topped with tomato sauce and cheese and baked in an oven, commonly also topped with meats, vegetables, and condiments. 

Flatbread "pizza" is generally made on a thinner, crispier crust using lighter toppings and sauce, most often not a tomato sauce.  

So... those findings were a bit anti-climactic. Fortunately, the toppings we offer on our Flatbreads at Wobbly Boots BBQ are exciting enough to titillate any taste bud! Check out the amazing flavors we've created especially for you.
