A month of sausage pizza

You might love pizza, but you’re no Craig Scharoff. The Chicago Tribune has the story of the man from the Chicago area, who is 22 days into a bet that he will eat only sausage pizza in October. There’s a “low four-figure sum,” on the line as one of Scharoff’s co-workers, Ronnie Kaplan, is documenting the challenge on the LTHForum — a Chowhound-like Web site.

Kaplan explained the rules of the bet to The Tribune:

Scharoff “must eat sausage pizza for every meal during the month of October. The pizza must contain crust, sausage and cheese. All toppings, with the exception of lettuce on Taco Pizzas — yes, he loves them — and arugula and prosciutto — he has no idea what either of these are — must be cooked into the pizza. He cannot have dessert, chips or side dishes of any kind. No salads, no cereals, no slaw. Any significant caloric intake must be pizza.”
