In the view of many many people, pizza is one of the greatest foods. That probably explains why there are so many pizza shops and chains.

Now comes Jason Hall, whose goal in 2017 is to eat pizza every day. 

Columnist Neal Rubin of The Detroit News writes:

We’re having lunch at Vince’s Italian Restaurant, a classic neighborhood spot in southwest Detroit, and “if this was down the street from me,” Hall says, “I’d probably eat it every day.”

Literally. And quite possibly more than once. Hall, 42, is on a quest: to eat pizza every day in 2017.

Across 2 1/2 months, the co-founder of Slow Roll Detroit has had marvelous pizza at Supino Pizzeria in Eastern Market, his amore. He’s had atrocious pizza at a roller rink in Oakland County, where the slice looked like it had been rotating in the heated case for three hours and it stuck to the cardboard when the kid behind the counter retrieved it.

He’s had emergency pizza, when the clock was running out and he realized he’d forgotten to find a piece all day. He’s had bonus pizza, when thoughtful associates arranged business meetings at pizza parlors just in case. He’s had gas station pizza, which is about what you’d expect.
