Maybe pizza box technology has improved because I haven't seen these things in a long time sadly

I was thinking the same thing. Anyone under the age of 20 has got to be scratching their head at this meme.

I'm under 37 and also scratching my (European) head. Is this one of those insane US things?

I used to see them in the UK. Perhaps they're making the boxes stronger to save needing the plastic, or maybe it's just smaller pizzas/boxes don't need them.

Depending on the chain they still come on some pizzas our side of the ocean.

Unfortunately, they're just cutting cost. My recently ordered pizza was ripped off and stuck to the box. Had to scrape it off .
