Social context

Pizza in schools and institutional catering

Institutional pizza — school cafeteria rectangles, hospital and canteen pizza — is a distinct product engineered for holding temperature, portion cost and nutritional guidelines. For a great many people it is the first pizza they ever ate, and it forms a reference point that later pizza is measured against.
