Transcription

Chuck E. Cheese says our pizza is good food! Just one slice of a large 'Big C Combo' pizza has:

• the same calories and protein as a tuna sandwich.
• fewer calories, same protein and three times more calcium than a peanut butter sandwich
• fewer calories, more protein and three times more calcium than an egg salad sandwich.

Our pizza dough tastes extra special too, because its prepared fresh daily in our kitchens. The four basic food groups are well represented in our 'Big C Combo' pizza. Two slices (1/6th) of a large 'Big C Combo' pizza contain the following percentages of recommended daily dietary allowances (RDA's) established by the U.S. Department of Agriculture:
