Food and advertising

Various Sir Pizza franchises market the pizza with the phrase "Good to the Very Edge", which purports to reference the lack of a traditional crust in Sir Pizza pizzas. Specifically the pizza pies are "virtually flat with cheese, sauce, and toppings loaded all the way to the very edge." Sir Pizza is unique in that it does not use more typical sliced pepperoni, rather the topping is ground into crumbles that are spread over the entire pizza, similar to sausage.
