One day, a future President of the United States will be at her/his internship and get asked to order pizza for the group. They will use this tool to order JUST THE RIGHT AMOUNT of pizza. Their boss will be so impressed by cost saving and efficiency of ordering the perfect amount of pizza, which will get them promoted to Head Intern. This turn of events will lead to a successful career at the Emoji Consortium, eventually turning the once promising Head Intern to President of the United States. In their victory speech, they will credit How Many Pizzas Do I Need? with landing them the Presidency, I think.
How is this calculated? 1 person eating for gains is 1 pizza; 2 people eating for gains is 2 pizzas. Is the idea that you want more gains than the other person so another pizza gets consumed?
How does your app account for leftovers? Also, what about those people who order obscure pizzas that nobody else wants (example: Hawaiian), but inevitably consumes mostly mainstream varieties such as cheese and pepperoni?
Why does it take so long to "calculate"? What is it doing??? setTimeout( () => return numberOfPizzas, 5000)

@joshuapinter how would we have that sweet sweet calculating animation then? :D
This is fantastic. Just wish there was a way to go back instead of having to refresh if you wanted to recalculate!
This is hilarious.
My girlfriend and I both work out 3-5 days a week.
On Saturday nights we like to have a Amazon Prime, Netflix, YouTube, etc. and chill night.
We order 2 X-Large pizzas ๐ because we each have inner fat people to feed.
If I ordered 1 Pizza for a Saturday we would both be Hangry.
Dope ๐ฌ๐ฌ
But not for me

This site was made by my coworker, and I thought it was an extremely important tool that the world needed to be aware of. ๐
1 person to gain = 1 pizza
2 people to gain = 3 pizzas
?
I guess more people involves more talking and moving around, thus more calories are burned and you need more pizzas. Or the math is simply off.
This is so so helpful. Also the pizza franchises need to get in on this. Every time I call and ask they have absolutely no clue.
I wish there was a tiny bit more information given. MOST annoying is the lack of a number for the people input. When you have 4-6 folks, sure, but when ordering for 24+ (which is what makes a pizza calculator so handy!) you're going to want a variable input field.
Other small things include: details on the pizza size: how big is the pizza and how many slices are normal. Also, after the calculation, how many slices per person?
