Celebrate National Pepperoni Pizza Day with these deals

Pepperoni or cheese pizza? It's an age-old question. But it's finally time for pepperoni to shine with a day dedicated to the pizza topping.

Sunday, Sept. 20, marks National Pepperoni Pizza Day, according to the National Day Calendar. The day falls just weeks after National Cheese Pizza Day on Sept. 5.

While pizza is commonly associated with Italian cuisine, the National Day Calendar says it may have originated in ancient Greece. Thousands of years ago, ancient Greeks topped bread with oil and cheese, and many believe this is how pizza got its start. Then the Romans created pizza, topped with cheese and honey, and flavored it with bay leaves.

Today, we add all sorts of toppings: anchovies, pineapple, ham, mushrooms and/or peppers. But Sept. 20 is all about the iconic pepperoni pizza.

Here are some deals and discounts you can take advantage of while you're celebrating.
