Pizza Time


Foodie internet sites today have been carrying a story about pizza
that is apparently noteworthy. The USDA (US deptartment of Agriculture)
has just released data about pizza to the effect that it is a favourite food for many.
On any one day, 1 in 8 Americans will consume pizza. Among teen-aged males, the
number is 1 in 4. The numbers below.



What can one conclude from this. After all, there is pizza and pizza. People like
cheese toast; maybe it has become a food category, like soup. I do know, for my part,
that the thin-crusted vegetarian Dr. O I sometimes eat one tiny piece of is nothing like, well, 
1976 all-dressed delivery. With a paste ball to hold the cover, overlapping pepperoni and  so much oil that the bottom of the box was quickly soaked...Memories!
