Would you buy a Thankgiving pizza? Now before you yell NOOOOOOO...wait a second. Have you ever found yourself on DAY FIVE of eating Thanksgiving leftovers . . . thinking, "Maybe I can put this stuff on a pizza?"  Well, now a pizza company is doing it.  But it's not delivery . . .

DiGiorno is selling a Thanksgiving Pizza, which features:  Turkey, gravy sauce, sweet potatoes, green beans, cranberries, mozzarella, cheddar, and some kind of "crispy onion topping."  All that is piled on a thick "Detroit-style crust."

That's really . . . something.  And judging by the responses online, people are optimistic that it WON'T taste disgusting.

The pizzas are not in stores.  You'll have to order them online.  DiGiorno is releasing a "limited" number of them every Wednesday through Thanksgiving, starting TODAY.  Each one will cost $11.23.  (That seems random, but this year, Thanksgiving is on the 23rd, or 11/23.)

Okay, so maybe you're not into the Thanksgiving Pizza - what about Pizza for breakfast? 

According to a new survey, 44% of people would be willing — and excited — to eat breakfast more often if pizza were on the menu. The survey also found that 52% of adults wish pizza was considered a more traditional breakfast food.

  • Eating cold pizza for breakfast is “normal,” right? It’s something we all do?
  • But it probably hasn’t occurred to many of us to make a fresh pizza for breakfast. Of course, we can’t order pizza from a restaurant because pizzerias don’t open until lunchtime.
  • Have you ever cooked — or do you often cook — a frozen pizza for breakfast?
  • Are there any other unusual foods that you seem to crave in the morning? Do you take the step of making these foods fresh? We’re not talking leftovers here. Fresh, fun, weird food…for breakfast.
  • If you think about it, why do we worry what’s “traditional” or “acceptable” when it comes to food? It’s nobody’s business but our own…
