IN SEARCH OF PIZZA! It started in Columbus, Ohio, in 1961. Dad brought a hand tossed pizza home, the first pizza I can remember. It had sardines on it, which fired up my appetite! Pizza was such a rarity in our house that we'd long since moved to Pennsylvania before I recall eating another one. That one probably came from The Palms in Emmitsburg, it was likely a frozen crust pizza. The others that followed were probably frozen crusts as well from Corny's Corner or the Ott House, each satisfying

Have you ever thought about diving into a pizza before? I know I have—although it may result in acne and other harmful bodily effects, how could I possibly pass up the opportunity to be one with my favorite food? Unfortunately, I am not talking about your typical, how-did-i-accidentally-burn-this frozen pizza from the supermarket; unless you prefer cardboard over a gooey cheesy goodness, then how are you even alive?

Ancient Roman food is diverse and simple yet delicious. Panis Quadratis and moretum are the most well known foods from Rome. Panis Quadratis is a Roman version of bread. The bread was named Panis Quadratis because of the four “cuts” made before baking that created eight equal sized portions in the bread. This recipe is well known because of the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in Pompeii on August 4, 79 AD. Moretum, on the other hand, is latin for salad, but is more of a cheese, garlic, and herb pesto
