Are the good old days truly the good old days? Today our intrepid hosts journey back to the time of platform shoes, bell-bottoms, aviator glasses, and jumpsuits... no, not the 1990s! Back to the first emergence of these iconic fashion milestones, the 1970s. Groovy times ahead fellow voyagers, as we learn all about the world's first pizza funeral. Yes, there really was a time when pizza was eulogized and buried at a formal funeral. Grab a slice of your favorite warm, cheesy indulgence and learn all about the inspirational life of Ilario "Mario" Fabbrini, the inventor of frozen pizzas. Afterwards, we'll explore the Food and Drug Administration's manufacturing/canning standards which may leave you second-guessing your recent food choices.
