October is here, and along with Halloween, Oktoberfest, and other notable events, it’s also time to celebrate one of the world’s most beloved foods—pizza! National Pizza Month, established in October 1984 by Gerry Durnell, a pizza shop owner and publisher of Pizza Today magazine, has grown into a national celebration for pizza lovers everywhere. Durnell originally chose October for this food-focused festivity to coincide with the debut issue of his magazine, and since then, it has encouraged the growth of the pizza industry across the country.
Today, pizza is a mainstay in American dining, with 93% of Americans eating it at least once a month. Pizza shops now account for a striking 17% of U.S. restaurants, driving the pizza industry to a value of around $46 billion. This month, pizza chains nationwide are celebrating with limited-time deals, making October a great excuse to treat yourself to a slice or two.
