Full Title: 2,300 Americans hospitalized by pizza in 2017 (including some who fell out of bed reaching for a slice), report reveals
Pizza is hot, gooey, delicious - and dangerous, the US Consumer Product Safety Commission is reminding Americans.
In 2017, an estimated 2,300 people had to go to the emergency room for pizza-related injuries.
They cut themselves cutting pies, burned themselves on pizza pans, and fell in presence of pizzas.
In its latest data set, the US Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) explores every kind of unthinkable injury and reminds us that even the best things in life can be risky.
'More mindfulness when interacting with sharp objects with your food would be good for everyone.'

Pizza is dangerous! There should be a ban on guns, knives and pizza! </sarc>

You may create a riot with talk like that. Also, sometimes

I blame the National Pizza Association who push their pro-pizza agenda through a number of subservient members of Congress.

Pizza isn’t stupid. The people cutting themselves, burning themselves, falling (more then likely drunk on beer, or high on other....)themselves are.
