Americans and…Pizza

I was in Idaho Falls on business last year and took the opportunity to visit Rexburg Idaho again. I went to school there for a year at Ricks College (now known as BYU-Idaho).

I took my wife and boys to one of the old Pizza joints that we loved, Craigo’s.

While there I read their “Pizza Trivia” table top display…

1. Americans eat approximately 100 acres of pizza a day, or 350 slices per second
2. The average American eats 46 slices of pizza a year

Craigo’s then asks, “Have you met your quota?”

Is there any wonder why we have an obesity epidemic?
