In the minds of many there’s one topping that beats them all…. sausage. On October 11, get your slice on, as we celebrate National Sausage Pizza Day!

Why We Love National Sausage Pizza Day

  1. It's full of character

    Black olive pizza is great, don't get me wrong, but all black olives are the same. Sausage, though? This versatile pizza-topper comes in infinite varieties, ensuring you'll never tire of the same old taste.

  2. It's universal

    There aren't many toppings that are as widely-loved as sausage. Public policy polling ran a survey in 2013 that confirmed this notion — after pepperoni and mushroom, sausage is America's favorite pizza topping.

  3. It's new

    Believe it or not, pizza with toppings like sausage is a relatively new way to consume it. For a few hundred years, Italians have been eating flatbreads that resemble modern cheese pizzas, but it was only in the 20th century that people started to innovate.
