Pizza fan? Data fan? PIZZA METRICS is the first in a series of data-focused food-rating journals from Yum Index that allow you to rate and compare foods based on your personal preferences. Yum Index represents a passion for both food and data shared by friends Maria and Tricia, who are always eating food or talking about it (sometimes both at the same time). Ordering pizza together has sparked intense debate (cheese more important than sauce? thin crust or thick?) and existential discussions (what is taste?).

With PIZZA METRICS, you’ll be able to quantify, track, and compare your experiences with 52 pizzas based on a weighted index scheme defined by your own criteria—important, since Maria and Tricia disagree wildly with each other (and probably you, too) on what makes a good pizza. And that's fine!

If this sounds too math-y to you, don’t be daunted! (Maria thinks math is “a necessary evil.”) PIZZA METRICS is kid and adult friendly - perfect for a fun math workout/classroom/pizza parlor settings. Our Pizza Reflection Guide helps you easily define and quantify your own metrics. Extra goodies in the book include pizza-related activities (for when you’re waiting for your pies) and chart and graph frameworks so you can plot and visualize your own data.
