Vincent Sbarro’s personal favorite is a good New York slice, just cheese, no toppings, he said.
“[Pizza is] a beautiful food with a beautiful story, and I’m just so delighted to exist in a world that has it,” he said.
According to Slice Out Hunger’s website, a Pizza Across America campaign takes place during the week of Feb. 9, 2025, which is National Pizza Day. That week, participating pizza makers donate at least 10 pizzas each to local hunger relief centers.
The website states that Pizza Across America was created by Michael and Nicky Testa, known as the Jersey Pizza Boys, when they were 13 and 11 years old. They teamed up with Slice Out Hunger in 2018 with the goal of delivering pizza in all 50 states to people in need.
