With its Doodles, Google has found a reason to celebrate on a daily basis, and the search giant’s theme for the logo remix on December 6, 2021—pizza—is certainly worth toasting to.
To mark the very day that Neapolitan Pizzaiuolo (the art of pizza-making) joined the UNESCO Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in 2007, Google released a mini-game testing your artisanal skills… at perfect pizza slicing.
Precision is key here. Not only must you split the pizzas according to the requested number of slices, but you’ll also have to portion out those toppings as accurately as possible, or risk irking the picky eaters in your life.
#DidYouKnow? An estimated five billion pizzas are consumed internationally each year!
