Original Geno’s Crave-able of the Month: Pizza
Pizza, pizza pizza! Now that’s amorè! Americans have been enjoying this round (or square) dish for decades, in what has become one of the most iconic and cherished dishes in American history. It is hard to say when it first hit the shores of the U.S., however the first license to sell pizza was in 1905 when Gennaro Lombardi applied to make and sell it at his grocery store in New York.
Since then, we have seen pizza in many different shapes, sizes, topped, stuffed, and even the way it is eaten. It is said that over 3 billion pizzas are eaten a year, and at average, Americans consume around 46 slices a year. Pizza makes up 10% of all food service sales in the United States, with around 62% of folks preferring meat-based toppings, while 38% prefer the veggies.
It truly is a comfort food that most people love. Whether you are a picky kid (or adult) that goes for the cheese, or someone that loves to experiment with different flavors, crusts, cheeses, etc… Most people have no problem reaching for their favorite version.
