 Simple shot of pizza that my wife made. I took over 100 shots during preparation and this was one of the last before we ate.

The plaid place mats may be a bit cliche, but my guess is that what voters will want to see.

The centered image isn't as dynamic as a different angle or a portion of the pizza might have been

very nice, a tighter crop would have strengthened this shot.

DOF feels off. The framing and angle of the shot leave something to be desired IMO. There's no real focal point. That pizza looks friggin' delish, though. I'd probably want to shoot it as well.

Looks tasty, but it is a little flat. I would have liked maybe a more interesting angle, or possibly different light?

This is too sharp (bet you thought you'd never hear that one...huh?).
The current style of food photography rarely if ever has everything in focus. If the food image is being used to idendentify specific product such as, a spice, an herb, a fish or utensil, etc. only then is sharp focus necessary. Otherwise full dof food images went out with Betty Crocker Cookbooks in the 1970/s/80's. Cheers!

Having said that, this will probably place better than my shot.

eta:Very Betty Crocker. My guess for a Top 5.
