When I lived in Eugene from 1991 to 2000 I had a round aluminum pizza baking sheet. I believe it was past down from the years of my first marriage. Over the years it became dented and beat up from much use, even turning black. Most the pizzas baked on it were home made using BOBOLI Pizza Crust. Toppings consisted of using left over veggies or whatever else looked good from depths of the refrigerator. Luckily I don't remember anybody ever getting sick from the toppings that may have been used a little beyond their expiration dates. Every time the baked pizza was cut using a round pizza cutter more dents appeared in the baking sheet. My daughter had a friend that occasionally ate dinner with us including a few pizzas. On one occasion the friend asked, "is that a hub cap you bake those pizzas on?"
