Gwen pulls around the corner with Owen in her passenger seat and a sedated Weevil in the boot of her car, while Jack and Tosh wrestle the other two into the SUV. It comes up again two weeks later, after a long, grueling Weevil chase through a residential neighborhood. Rhys loudly protests several aspects of the story that most of them don’t even blink at anymore, and the pizza night crisis is quickly forgotten.

I think Owen’s just convinced the pizza box on the coffee table refills itself at four every day.” “It’s pizza night because we actually go out for the pizza, instead of just bringing it to the Hub and leaving it out for people to grab when they’re hungry.” When everyone looks at Gwen, she shrugs. “But we have pizza every night,” Ianto repeats, his tone taking on the slightest twinge of hysteria. “I don’t even remember when pizza night started, actually.” “You have pizza every night down there? I thought this was some special team bonding thing.” “Don’t get me wrong,” Ianto backpedals, “it’s just that - well, we have pizza every night.” “What’s wrong with pizza night?” Owen asks, slowly, like he’s talking to a child.

Kenji López-Alt and illustrated by artist Gianna Ruggerio, the book highlights the importance of gastronomic diversity for children and adults alike. However, by cooking and tasting foods with six new friends, Pipo discovers that what makes a food “the best” transcends taste as only one ingredient in the melting pot of tradition, family and friendship. Pipo is determined to prove that pizza is, in every aspect, the best food out there.
