PS: The bigger the pizza the better the deal (usually).

Area of a circle: A = r^2

A 16 pie has 201 square inches of pizza, while an 8 has only 50 square inches. The price
isnt four times as much.

8 = 50
10 = 79
12 = 113
14 = 154
16 = 201
18 = 254

These are the standard box sizes. Usually 8" is personal size, 10" is small, 12" is medium,
14" is large and 16" is extra-large. NY Style pizzas are 18" in diameter.

7 (18cm) 7 1/8 x 7 1/8 x 1 3/4
8 (21cm) 8 1/8 x 8 1/8 x 1 3/4

10 (26cm) 10 1/8 x 10 1/8 x 1 3/4
11 (28cm) 11 1/8 x 11 1/8 x 1 3/4
12 (31cm) 12 1/8 x 12 1/8 x 1 3/4

Personal - 7 (38.47 sq. in.)

Small - 10 (78.5 sq. in.)

Medium - 12 (113.0 sq. in.)

Large - 14 (147.0 sq. in.)

X-Large - 16 (201.0 sq. in.)

Jumbo - 18 ( 254.3 sq. in.)

Colossal - 21 ( 346.2 sq. in.)

These are standard sizes in most major pizza chains. All but the Colossal are used by most
franchisers of the Round Table Pizza chain, which I worked at in various stints when much
younger. Typically a Colossal, aka Party Pizza, doesnt have the skin (or crust) pre-
made, it will be rolled on demand from a batch of dough in the walk-in or from combining a
large and an X-large skins.

Some outfits, like Pizza Hut, have gone to a rectangular skin, which is also typical of Unos
Chicago-style. Interesting enough, in Italy, they do make pizza, but rather than a meal of
itself, its simply bread, and not often slathered with cheese and tomato sauce. If they do
that, its as essentially what wed term a flatbread sandwich. Its considered part of
antipasto rather than the main course.

Some variance, but for round pizzas: 10, 12, 14, 16, 20, and 24 inches are common
diameters. One to four of those are offered at most pizza places.

I would say there is no standard size in the US there is a range. I work for a deep dish chain
with 200 locations and have made pizza for others. We range through 5, 7 10, and 16 inch.
The five is tiny its a kids size and the 16 is a big one which seems small on ordering until we
bring it out.

There really arent standard diameters as it varies from chain to chain and even store in
chain to store in chain.
