How to Measure a Pizza

The ultimate food for comfort and convenience is pizza, and the flexibility and variety make it an everyday food. Hot and cheesy, there aren’t any toppings that are off limits. From gourmet to fast food, any kind and many sizes are available. Pizzas typically come in small, medium and large and occasionally extra large. But these labels can be vague. When ordering, it’s good to know what measurements apply to these generic sizes. Pizzas are sized according to the measurement of the diameter, so a pizza with a 10-inch diameter would be considered small; a 12-inch diameter would be a medium; a 14-inch diameter would be a large.
