Mmmmmm…chewy cheese, you taste so lovely. Who woulda thunk one pie could cause so much pleasure! Oh pepperoni…you luscious disk o’carne…the life of a Vegan must be filled with perpetual craving. And you little ‘shroom, though you ripen in the ground you taste like heaven above. I LOVE YOU Pizza Pie…and have discovered even more reasons to continue our weekly consumption ritual:
The health benefits of pizza
Researchers report that eating pizza could protect against CANCER.
Why, you ask? Because of its headlining act: the tomato.
A friend from a neighboring village in Zimbabwe once knew a researcher who knew a researcher who claimed that eating pizza regularly reduced the risk of developing oesophageal cancer by 59%. The risk of developing colon cancer also fell by 26% and mouth cancer by 34%, they claimed. The secret could be lycopene, an antioxidant chemical in tomatoes, which is thought to offer some protection against CANCER, and which gives the fruit its traditional drop-dead-ferk-me-red color.
Now that we have established that pizza cures CANCER, let’s talk about its popular toppings around the world…
The UK's favourite topping is chicken (it goes with everything)
Japan - eel and squid (it’s the pizza that bites back)
Pakistan – curry (duh)
Russia - red herring (red…get it?)
Australians - shrimp, pineapple and barbecue toppings <-me likey the barby Costa Ricans – coconut (sweet AND salty…perfect for the munchies) Cartersville, GA – Possum (fresh, of course) ON TAP:
This Friday join me in witnessing some serious whoopin’ at the Gwinnett Arena as Las Vegas’ GUILTY BOXING presents “Pride and Glory,” a spectacular night of live boxing, MMA ("no-holds-barred") action and devastating Muay Thai fighting. This is the first time both professional boxing bouts and professional martial arts matches will be presented on the same card. Tickets start at $20.
