I thought I loved pizza. Scott Weiner of Scott's Pizza Tours showed me that my love barely begins to scratch the surface. Scott is a leading voice in the pizza community. As a monthly columnist for Pizza Today Magazine, host of Thrillist's Really Dough, and Guinness World Record holder for largest collection of pizza boxes, it's clear that he turned obsession into a lifestyle, and a full-on career.
The pandemic has sidelined the tour biz, but Scott is hard at work giving virtual tours and lectures on the history and significance of pizza. He has also teamed with Slice out Hunger to create Pizza vs. Pandemic, which has raised a staggering $600K to feed front line workers during the pandemic.
Scott is a cool guy, and I am more than happy to talk about pizza.
