is here, and there's no better time to appreciate the unsung hero of every great pizza: the dough! 🍕 While we often celebrate the toppings, it's the foundation made from wheat that truly makes or breaks a pizza.

Wheat plays a crucial role in creating that perfect crust with just the right balance of chewiness and crispness. It gives structure and flavor, making every bite a delightful experience. So, let's give a round of applause to wheat for its vital role in creating our beloved cheese pizza. After all, you can't have pizza without a good dough!
