Pizza Lovers: Not Who You Thought They Were

When you hear the words “pizza lover” you might also think of words like: beer belly, fraternity brothers, and Monday Night Football. But according to a new study detailed in Nation’s Restaurant News, beer-chugging, football-watching men aren’t the biggest pizza fans in America: women are. And even more surprising is that the women who qualify as “pizza lovers” also tend to work out at least twice a week, totally dispelling that whole “beer belly” image. According to study, over 60% of pizza lovers are women, and over 65% of them exercise twice or more per week, and an even greater percentage of them opt for soda with their pizza, not a six pack of Bud Light.
