I love pizza and never get to eat it because of the caloric load, and I really doubt that.
Fats are 9 calories a gram. If you remove the available grease you're getting, what, two grams off per slice, maybe? Doesn't seem like that's really moving the needle.
Though now I want to rigorously test this, so the next time I have pizza I'll weigh the napkin before and after soaking up available grease.
There's a lot more than 2 grams of fat in a slice of pizza. I've tried it before because Ulillillia's pizza degreasing meme has lived rent free in my head for like a decade, and I could easily soak a couple of paper towels in pizza grease from just a slice of pizza.
Apparently, all he ate were pizzas, so it wasn't just one slice he was degreasing, but whole pizzas.
