Pizza dough

Fair Game
The World

You know when you open the cabinet and see nothing but an old box of brown rice and some weird candied walnuts your mom gave your for Christmas? You just get some take out – but what do you if you’re say? Cameroon, and you don’t really have pizza money – no matter how many free toppings or unlimited crazy breads are thrown in. In fact, you don’t have milk money, wheat money, or even rice money. International Food prices have risen at least 40% in the last 12 month and it’s hitting developing countries the hardest. But America is not immune. Because of rising dairy and wheat prices, the cost to pizza makers has been rising and deep dish pizza may be the first casualty. A delicious delicious casualty. Faith Salie speaks Ann Reichel, owner of Angelina’s Pizza’s, a 2 store chain in Ohio.
