272 calories time 8 slices (the entire pie) = 2176 calories, or 50% more than most people use in a day. Or 3.6 hours at warp speed on a bike.
On my relieved return from Tesco Grocery Store this morning I found local vagrant superstar "Alan" (of Scottish descent) tapping on my window: Apparently Portsmouth Museum is planning a significant event about his life on Thurs. Dec 9th. Which I have marked in my Diary.
Returning a fiver (£5) I lent him the other night in his search for a decent bottle of Tesco Plonk. Had advised him that "Fruity Wine" was on offer at a mere £3.30. A fact he was well-aware of.
Anyway, I have been trying to reconstruct events of last night. Turns out the last person to see my Bank Card alive was my very dear friend, and "Customer Advisor" Lexie.
TBH, me and young Lexie get on like a house on fire. I merely wish one was 40 years younger.
I left today's purchases entirely in her hands. I don't fight the Universe. Far better to just go with the flow. This is what I have learned.

A can of pineapple for your pizza?
You can not be serious! 😱
Surely the only fruit that should be associated with a pizza is tomato. 😉

Not many people are big enough to eat the whole thing. Those who are, likely burn more calories just from standing up than average people.
Ever heard of Hawaiian pizza? I've had some back in college years. It works similar way as sausage & sauerkraut, you've got greasy pizza and tangy chunks of pineapple cut the grease.
I'm concerned about my long lost Scottish brother.
I hope you are not encouraging him to smoke! 😉
That is negligible, a slice of bread contains as much as 189 kcal, read 189000 calories 😱
The quoted 272 calories in a slice of pizza are actually 'large calories' or 'kilocalories'.
In food science, the large calorie is called Calorie, with an upper case C.
i.e. One kilocalorie is the same as one Calorie.
The 272 Calories in a slice of Pizza is therefore 272,000 calories.
I looked it up! 😀
Was that said that the cheese at cheapo pizza places, is an ersatz. 😱
It looks like cheese, it tastes like cheese for those used to junk food, it is not cheese.

Food inspectors who visited 20 pizza outlets in Lancashire also discovered these shocking statistics:
10 out of the 15 pizzas that purported to contain ham actually contained turkey DNA.
Four samples that were advertised as containing pepperoni were found to contain “species in addition to beef or pork”.

My friends, we are not entrusted on our Mortal Mission on Earth to merely play about.
No, we are deeply serious. I have, for instance, occasionally gone in search of the perfect Ragu. Known as Spag Bol to the less enlightened:
In Search of Ragu
I detest Tomatoes, and vegetables too. Only consuming them as one of my 5 a day. On dull government advice. Far prefer Pineapples in my Pizza, or in my fruity Kashmir Curry. Ah, what sweetness! Which, as we all know, brings forth strength. 🙂

In analogue pizza cheese, the dairy fat required for anything to be described as cheese is replaced by cheaper vegetable oil and additives. This is not illegal if not described as cheese.

Cracking night on BBC Radio 2:
Lady called in with an admittedly Sad story about her Blind Mother. I story I can relate to.
Apparently her Ma had plastic eyeballs. Even had a spare pair. Which her daughter found on clearing the house after her Ma's demise.
Said that whenever people said she had her Mother's Eyes, she had to admit that SHE DID! 😀
Only one hour to go, my friends:
Will I be Rich Man or a Pauper tomorrow. The Race that stopped the Forum. 🙂

I've visited Bologna years ago but that was before I was hooked on pasta so I didn't try Ragu there. However, there is such thing as the official Ragu. "In the 1982, the "Accademia della Cucina di Bologna", the association that preserves the local culture and traditions, has published an official version of the recipe."
Agneta Åse Fältskog, known as Agnetha Fältskog, was also known to be partial to candy!
