QUIZ: How Well Do You Know Pizza? Play Along with Hungry Games
No matter how you slice it, the convergence of crispy crust, rich tomato sauce and pools of cheese is irresistible in a pizza. Now how about the toppings? That’s up to you. On last night’s episode of Hungry Games, Richard Blais revealed what senses we use to taste our toppings. The results were really surprising. And when it comes to salesmanship, Richard has upselling pizza down pat. He proved that the more descriptive the language on a menu, the higher the price people are willing to pay for a pizza — and the more pleasurable it is to eat as well.
