Better Than Pizza
People consume copious amounts of strange foods worldwide and none seems to be more popular than pizza. It is eaten worldwide, in many different recipes, and seems to have its largest homebase in America where it is literally eaten by the acre every day.
These interesting stats are based on pizza consumers in America:
- The US has over 60,000 Pizza Parlours.
- On average, an American citizen eats 46 pizza slices per year.
- 94% of the US population eats pizza.
Needless to say, the Americans love their pizza. How does this all stack up when you compare with Australia? With a much smaller population in Australia, the Aussies still carry their weight in the pizza eating stakes. The guys at Melbourne Pizza Delivery (MPD) are carrying out the next Aussie Social Experiment to establish where they are positioned in the global marketplace of pizza consumption.
How will this social experiment work? First of all the boys from MPD establish the nutrition levels of various pizza types. Then they look at who consumes the different pizza types and what the demographics of the consumers are. How do people’s bodies cope with the nutrition levels of a pizza over weeks, maybe years? There are many questions to ask and these will be answered as time goes by.
People from all backgrounds adore their pizza and it isn’t restricted to certain social backgrounds anymore. Just about anyone can afford a take away pizza these days and that clearly shows up in the amazing amounts of pizza that is delivered to people’s doorsteps every day all over the globe.
