Pizzaflation (pizza + inflation)

“Pizzaflation” (pizza + inflation) is an infrequently used term. As printed in a 1987 newspaper. “pizzaflation” meant the inflation of pizza crust.
 
A 2012 blog described “pizzaflation” an inflation in the price of pizza—in this case because of “Obamacare” healthcare costs. “Pizzaflation and the US Dollar collapse” by globalintelhub was posted by Zero Hedge on September 29, 2016 explained economics with pizza.

Sometimes the best economic analysis comes anecdotally.  Why not explain the most important economic issue of our day with America’s favorite food: PIZZA.  As we explain in our book Splitting Pennies - Understanding Forex, the real reason of inflation is because of monetary policy, not supply and demand.
