There's been a lot of buzz around a new study published this week in the journal Pediatrics that found pizza plays a major role in weight gain among kids.
Researchers discovered that when kids eat pizza, which they do often, they eat a lot more calories, fat and sodium than they normally would.
Given that, you would think pizzerias would keep mum about just how many calories are in an average pie. But not Joe Peep's NY Pizza.
The North Hollywood eatery proudly boasts that their pies are a whopping 5,969 calories.
Marvin Cardenas, a manager at Joe Peep's, has more on the bold way the shop advertises their pizza.
