The pizza industry is institutionalized, but sales are sinking, technological advances are crushing, and customers are downsizing, sending pies into a tailspin. The national average of a large pizza is now more than $17, up more than 20% in recent years. Major pizza chains are either shutting down locations or revamping their offerings, while customers are reducing their pie sizes and ordering fewer toppings. Some pizzerias, like Blaze Pizza, are even catering to people on the GLP-1 weight-loss drugs. People on TikTok who document their GLP-1 intake like to call it a weight-loss “journey.” The maker of Wegovy is now selling the weight-loss shot in pill form. It turns out that there is a magic pill for weight loss. And it starts at $149 a month. More on that in the next hour. Back to the weight-loss shots and pills — as they become less expensive and more accessible, what happens when everyone is on them, and we’re all a size-0?
