Ciccero’s Pizza

This means meaty business.

This means meaty business.

One day, a Ciccero’s Pizza menu from Pico and La Cienega was discovered on the door of my friend’s apartment.  I happened to be at the apartment at the time and we decided to give the place a try.  They were offering a 2-for-1 deal, so I opted for the All Meat Special, featuring a delightful spread of pepperoni, salami, sausage and ham.  My foolish friends decided they would get the Vegetarian Special, which contained gross, gross and even more gross.  I laughed as they placed their order, contented in the fact that they could never be as happy as me.

The pizza was delivered in about a half-hour.  I opened up a pizza and stumbled backwards as the stench of a multitude of vegetables invaded my olfactory senses.  As quickly as I could, I opened up the second box and was warmly greeted by meaty toppings.

As I delved into the pizza, my taste buds leaped for joy (not literally).  In between breaths, I looked to my friends, who were unhappily pecking away at their veggie pizza.  I extended them an olive branch to come and enjoy some of my meat, which they rapidly clamored for.

It was a successful unvegan night, worthy of Cicero himself, and the pizza wasn’t half-bad.

UNVEGAN FANS: HELP STUDENTS LEARN ABOUT DELICIOUS FOOD!

Future Foodies!

HYPE is a non-profit organization that works directly with low-income middle schoolers and their teachers to provide students with the guidance and resources needed to qualify for admission and succeed at top private schools in the Los Angeles area. We provide our students with engaging and unfamiliar experiences to broaden their horizons. A large part of building this cultural capital is by having our students try a wide variety of new foods. This pushes our students outside of their comfort zones and encourages them to take risks in a fun (and tasty!) way. Last summer, our students tried Ethiopian food, sushi, Korean BBQ, deli, and schwarma, just to provide some examples.

We want your help, Unvegan fans, to increase our students’ knowledge about the world around them by enhancing their culinary experiences. We greatly appreciate your support to provide a meal to our group of 15. With your donation, you will be opening delicious doors for an amazing group of students!
