With 2020 seeing the nation go in to lockdown and our favourite restaurants closed, families across the UK started to order in a little bit more. Apps such as Uber Eats, Just Eat and Deliveroo became quick dials in our mobiles and we started to explore what our local area offered with regards to takeaways.
According to data shared widely by Uber Eats, demand for pizza grew by 294% and their customer orders showed what the nation was ordering:
- Vegetarian
- Pepperoni
- Four cheese
- Margherita
- Meat feast
We’re pleased to say that our very own Jahan range offers a combination of the above which you can buy in your local Asda or Morrisons.
Now, with the formalities over, let’s have a look at some of the weird and outright wonderful pizza toppings that may or may not tickle your tastebuds
• Salmon & caviar – for the posh folk.
• Banana & curry – may or may not cause some arguments at home.
• Strawberries & salmon – not sure how we feel about this one.
• Marshmallows & chocolate – yes please!
Seen any that you fancy?
According to research, there is evidence of pizza throughout the centuries with one occurrence noted in 6th century BC whereby Persian soldiers who served under Darius the Great placed baked flatbreads garnished with cheese and dates on the top of their battle shields. Can’t say we have thought of adding dates to pizzas but may be worth a try!
Whatever your preferred topping for pizza is, one thing is for sure and that is pizza is here to stay! Whether you’re a fan of authentic thin crust bases or the typical American style deep pan, pizza is and will always be a firm family favourite.
