But, alas, "The Numbers Guy" doesn't really break it down for us. It comes out to a he-said-she-said piece in which chain pizzerias tout their selling points while a Kraft spokeswoman maintains that DiGiorno pizzas are still cheaper. The chain-pizza party line: Added Chris Sternberg, of Papa John’s, in an email, “With delivered pizza,...Here's a Tip: Mediocre Pizza Is Better When You Order It 'Well-Done'
Pizza photograph by The Pizza Review T&R, where I often get my delivery and take-out pies. For the last year, whenever I've ordered a conventional-gas-oven, mediocre-ingredients-laden, decent-crusted plain pie from my local pizzeria of choice, T&R, I have been specifying that my pie be well-done. Why? Because uncooked, gummy pizza dough may be my No. 1 pizza pet peeve (also known as my "PPP"). Nothing ruins a pizza like a bite filled with raw dough. And you know what? Ordering well-done really makes a difference. My last pie from T&R was most excellent. Am I the only pizza lover...Do You Let Your Babysitter Order Pizza While You're Out?
Would you trust this man to deliver pizza to your children and their babysitter? Wait—don't answer that. ©iStockPhoto.com/lvinst I have to admit, as a man who has yet to produce Baby Slices, it's a question I've never considered. My first impulse was "Why not?" But it looks like the majority of parents polled in this advice column are skittish about letting a teen answer the door without an adult present: "We don't do delivery unless the sitter is an adult. We just pick up frozen pizza and go out with a peaceful mind. To be quite honest, if the...In Videos: David Sedaris Delivers a Pizza

Editor's note: Last week, we ran an item on pizza in Reykajik, Iceland, sent in from homeslice Mark H. (aka Famdoc), who's written some reviews for us in the past (here and here). Mark grabbed some shots of the following: Dear Slice, While strolling the streets of Montpellier, France last month, I spied what must be the world's smallest pizza delivery truck, en route to a hungry, pizza-loving French person. —Mark H....Halloween Is Big Pizza Night
Who knew? Depending on where you live, Halloween is either the biggest or second-biggest pizza night of the year: Halloween trails just behind Super Bowl Sunday as the busiest day of the year for many pizzerias — and it is often the single busiest day for those located in neighborhoods that are not big on football. "Halloween breaks our records every year, particularly when it's on a weekend," said Byron Gougoumis, one of four brothers who own Pizza Rustica, with two branches in Oakland. "It's our busiest night of the year. Home delivery is insane. It's got to be the...Pizza Hut Online Fundraiser for Slain Driver
