Today
is National Deep Dish Pizza Day. What is
your favorite pizza topping?
National
Deep Dish Pizza Day was established in 2009 to commemorate this style of pizza
crust, created in Chicago, and the 65th anniversary of its original
creator, UNO.
The
Boston based company, ONU Restaurant Holdings Corporation, owns 165 full
service UNO Chicago Grill restaurants in 26 states (but unfortunately none in
Ada).
ONU
sells 4.4 million deep dish pizzas every year, which is enough to feed the
population of Ireland.
The
most popular pizza topping is cheese, followed by pepperoni and Italian
sausage. Nearly 35% of all the pizzas
ordered have pepperoni on them.
The
least popular pizza topping is anchovies.
Anchovies are small fish that taste very salty, and most pizza
restaurants do not even carry them.
Today
is a good day to make a trip to any of the local pizza places in town, or
simply call them up and place an order.
