Let's face it, the food pyramid has forever been changed. Basic food groups such as grains, fruits, and vegetables are no longer at the forefront of our mind when we think about diet. Instead, they've been replaced with Instagrammable food groups such as Goop approved, mythical creatures, and marijuana infused (not that we mind that one).
And for a while there, we loved it. In fact, we still do. But sometimes don't you want to chill out and indulge in junk food? Greasy, deep fried, good old junk food.
Us too, and Krave It in Queens totally gets it. They're not just your run of the mill pizza and sandwich shop. Their menu is a smorgasbord of comfort food all on top of a pizza or tucked away into a sandwich. They don't just use pepperoni, cheese, the occasional controversial pineapple. They will use toppings ranging from mac n' cheese to fried chicken to cheeseburgers, and will drizzle it all in jalapeno ranch and buffalo sauce. Their website touts themselves as a "new-age pizza place," which we can only imagine makes Queen of New Age Culture Gwyneth Paltrow seethe a little bit. But then again, even she would make this place her go-to on her annual cheat day...that is, if she were to ever deign to venture all the way out to Queens.
Check out some of Krave It's mouthwatering delicacies, just try not to drool all over your keyboard.
