America loves pizza

Pizza -- an American favorite. Americans eat more than 100 acres of pizza each day and an average of 23 pounds of pizza per person per year. Pepperoni pizza is the average American 10-year-old's favorite food, and pizza is second only to hamburgers as America's favorite food.

I could only manage 95 today, I wasn't all that hungry.

As long as you eat from the 2 major food groups (pizza and beer) you are doing OK.

LOL.......And I was gonna ping ya to this thread..should'a known you'd already be here...............best piazza con tutto I ever had in the CONUS was a little place called Babo Gonzos in Santa Fe New Mexico. Best pizza ever was a little place called "Matilidas Hole In The Wall" in Aviano Italy near the airbase there.................:o)

About the time I read this, my coworkers asked did I want something from Whataburger. I don't like it, but it'll have to do since there's no pizza this early. Dang, I'll have to walk 4 or 5 miles to work off a cheeseburger.

[Lil'freeper]

Mmmmm- it's what's for breakfast.

If they could come up with a way to make pizza taste just as good the second day (after refrigeration) as it did fresh from the delivery place, that would be a food breakthrough equivalent to unraveling the human genome.

My tastes are that of a 10 year old American! I couldn't be prouder.

Santa Fe New Mexico?? WHAT?? I think you may have stumbled upon Jimmy Hoffa, and Sammy the Bull in their wittiness protection program!

Huh? I was stuffing it down my pants. Yougotaproblemwitthat?

[CaptRon]

It it weren't for pizza and hot dogs I probably would have died of starvation before I reached 30.

Pepperoni pizza is the average American 10-year-old's favorite food,

I never heard of pepperoni on pizza until I was in my 20s - and I grew up in NYC, home to some of the best pizza joints on the planet.

Although now I do love pepperoni and pineapple, I till don't understand people who are grossed out by my ordering anchovies on mine.

ROFL!

. . .an average of 23 pounds of pizza per person per year.

Most proud to be doing MORE than my fair share in this area.

Could you turn on the video cam. I'm sure all of us would like to see that maneuver...

I ate my first pizza in 1956 in Redding Ca. Don't remember much about the pizza but the gallon picture of beer made a lasting impression for me. Burp...
