Why Pizza And Picnics Are One of Humanity's Happiest Partnerships | World Picnic Day Special

There are many foods one might consider taking on a picnic. Some are practical. Some are healthy. Then there is pizza. It is perhaps the most democratic picnic food ever invented. It asks very little of its surroundings and adapts cheerfully to circumstances that would cause other foods considerable distress. Sandwiches become soggy. Salads wilt. Ice cream, predictably, stages a dramatic escape. Pizza, meanwhile, sits calmly in its box, entirely confident that people will be delighted to see it.
