NATIONAL PIZZA DAY HISTORY
National Day Calendar continues researching the origins of this ever-popular food holiday.
However, the mystery remains. One thing we do know is how to eat pizza. Do you?
Pizza FAQ
Q. Are all pizzas round?
A. No. Pizzas are also made into rectangles and squares.
Q. Do thing crusts have leavening agents in them?
A. Most thin crust pizza recipes call for some sort of leaving agent such as yeast or baking soda. There are recipes, however, that call for no leavening agent.
Q. Which is better, thin or thick crust?
A. It depends on a variety of factors and personal choice. Different toppings fair better on one type of crust versus another. Some sauces require a thicker, more durable crust.
Th3 only way to eat a hotdogs is with mayo, celery salt, and Flo’s hotdogs sauce which you can find online (alhtouhgni liked my mother’s hotdogs sauce better- made with sweet vidalia onions. Flo’s comes in a close second)
Oh, and she has a sign in her hotdogs shop that says “don’t even ask for ketchup”
That's not what I'd call answering to a higher power either!

House of David Pizza:
I’ve never had that but have heard they are good. But didn’t the owner get in trouble awhile,back? Or was that papa john’s?
A little,known fact:

That was Papa Johns...............................
Lol, I had a comic that showed a viking ship with the front of the boat way out of the water because everyone had moved to the back, and the captain says “comon folks, someone has to sit up front with the lutefisk”
That was Papa Johns.................He made some remarks that the WOKE crowd didn’t like..............
Pineapple on pizza.
You’re a troublemaker, LOL.
That’s the only thing that triggers Freepers more than telling our resident Fauci Vaxxers that the jab causes strokes.
Ah ok. Now I remember- Hat was back when wokism was kinda just gettIng started nationally.
I have never been angrier than I am right now.
LMAO!
It’s a veritable word association game.
Pizza...

I couldn’t resist.
I really do love pineapple on pizza, so yeah I’m a leper, with a dole sense of humor.
There is a mom and pop pizza place near me. The whole family works there. They moved down here from New York City. They sell pizza by the slice and the slices are huge. Two will fill me up.
LOL! good,one.
Joe’s Fox Hut; Fond du Lac, Wisconsin
