Day!
It’s National Pizza Pie Day for there’s no excuse for not indulging yourself in one our country’s favorite dishes... Pizza.
It doesn’t matter if you buy, make or have it delivered, we Americans eat approximately 46 acres of pizza a year. That’s about 5.75 pizzas a year.
I have no idea when I had my first pizza... however I have a feeling it was one my mother made from Chef Boyardee... you know the one in the box. When I was growing up there were no pizza delivery places and I doubt there were any
Pizzerias or Pizza Parlors and certainly Dominos or Papa John’s were just seeds being planted in some entrepeneur’s head.
And today.... there are Friday night pizza nights with the family.... pizza by the slice... special pizza ovens and stones.... and much more.
36% of all pizzas ordered are pepperoni pizzas
Pizza most likely originated not in Italy but in Greece or Rome.
Most believe that the first pizzeria was Lombardi’s in New York City (1905).
17% of all restaurants in the U.S. are pizzerias.
If you don’t have time to make your own, here are some

Kathy ....I know what we're having tonight ....I can't wait! Thanks for the reminder ..... I'm sure pizza lovers everywhere appreciate this day!
Have a great day in FL!
Kathy - thanks for post; I had no idea, and would love to celebrate with some pizza today!
Good morning Kathy,
Great, who knew there was a National Pizza Day? Thank you for sharing, I know what's for dinner (and maybe lunch) today!
I had not heard of National Pizza day. Thanks for the information.
It should be an official day off like the other holidays.
So funny... it seems that there is a "day" for everyting now. At least this is one I can really enjoy getting in to!
Now you're talking my language BARFF................pizza is one of my favorites. I think you just gave me a reason not to worry if I indulge and don't "take it off in the rain" this week. Today is my Thursday with Mickey, guess what's for dinner? You got it.................pizza, thanks for the idea. I'm going to cheat though and buy pizza shells and put on our favorite toppings.
Kathy, Is it okay if I had pizza yesterday for lunch instead? One slice of pepperoni and one slice of cheese :)
Well....now I know what I MUST have for dinner tonight! Had no idea it was National Pizza Day or that there even was one lol :)! Did you say 46 ACRES?!!! That's a lot of pie (pizza that is)! Wow!
By the way with all of your knowledge about pizza and chocolate days I will never lose that holday weight!! Just sayin, lol :)!
Good morning Kathy,
I did not know it was National Pizza day! It's my Geno's birthday and on Sunday we are taking the family for Italian Food to celebrate. Love the video!!
Kathy
Now that I know it's National Pizza Day I'm going to have to celebrate it.
Good luck and success.
Lou Ludwig
Kathy good to know...at least I can eat my pizza today with no guilt.
Oh, now you just made me hungry. I don't remember when I first had a pizza, but I think my dad was 16. Poor guy! -Kasey
Rob- Hope you got your pizza! We ended up having home made pizza tonight.
Carol- i think many have National Pizza day at least every week.
Lisa- I was never a big pizza fan until I was older. But love it now.
Gita- I think there's a special food day every day. I love the dessert ones.
Edward- we all love pizza and it's jus so easy to eat!
Gayle- we probably have every day of the year covered.
BARFF- well it's still being made by you and served by you and shared with you.
BLiz- absolutely... you're always a step ahead of the game anyway!!!
Brenda- LOL... I'm sure there's a National salad day or national broccoli day but for some reason they just don't seem like they'd be as much fun to write about.
Dorie- then please tell your Geno Happy Birthday!
Lou- for sure. Anthony's Coal Fire or Mellow Mushroom?
Anna- no guilt pizza day!
Kasey- We had homemade pizza tonight and loved it!
I failed to have pizza to celebrate the day. I will need to have a deferred special day.
I was amused to see your title in the recommended box. It seems there is a 'day' for just about everything. It just so happened that my wife was making a pizza for our supper.
We haven't had pizza for a while now. Guess whose mouth started salivating after reading your blog? Great reminder!
