The most popular pizza in the Netherlands

Wishing you a nice Pizza Day. You don't know such a day exists until it arrives, at least that's what I've always thought. But just to advocate for the pizzas: if you can make people that happy, then I think it's fair that you get your own day. Or at least the pizzas that have been generous with the melted cheese. On Pizza Party Day, you want facts about pizzas, it seems to me, and therefore some trivia that makes you seem like a pizza expert:

1. The pizza box is not only square because it's cheaper to produce, but this design also helps keep your pizza fresh longer. It serves as insulation.

2. In Amsterdam, someone once ordered 75 (!) pizzas at once via Uber Eats.

3. Pizza is the best remedy for a hangover; on the day after King's Day, three times as many pizzas were ordered as usual.

4. Dutch people especially order a pizza on Fridays.

5. Without holes in a pizza box, your pizza becomes soggy (yuck).

6. The largest pizza ever was made by 400 pizza makers in Naples and is 1,853 meters long. The ingredient list included 2 tons of mozzarella, 2 tons of flour, 1.5 tons of tomato sauce, 200 liters of olive oil, and about 30 kilos of basil.

7. The Margherita is the most popular pizza among the Dutch. We are secretly quite proud of that, because that's how a traditional pizza should be, according to the Italians.
