Chicago vs. New York pizza showdown Mar06 '07

Rachel Ray (the face of grocery stores everywhere) is hosting a New York vs. Chicago Pizza Throwdown, and I'm inspired to participate.

From the web site:

One winner will be chosen from each city to present their pizza (and represent their city) on the Rachel Ray show later this month.

Go Chicago!

Thanks Michelle for sending this in.
