Answer 1

People tend to over eat dishes like pizza. But the real reason is that the amount of cheese is pretty high. Cheese has a lot of calories and the cheeses used tend to have a lot of saturated fat.

Additionally, meats often used on pizza are fatty and processed.

So it’s taking fat heavy food items with a lot of calories and combining them into one meal.
