Calgary man’s “local veggie pizza” prank goes viral on Facebook

We support small businesses, but we also support maintaining a sense of humour especially when times get tough. Food YYC is a Facebook page dedicated to Calgarians sharing their tastiest city experiences and events, but one member also saw it as an opportunity to get a few laughs.

Craig Pack posted a photo on the page of, maybe the most insulting looking pizza we’ve ever seen, and we’ve drunkenly used pita bread as crust.

Eventually, he admitted that the frozen vegetable disaster was a joke, but not before it got some serious reactions. The comment section is littered with everything from “call the police,” and “wtf” to laugh-crying emojis from those who, we’re assuming, saw through the saucy ruse all along.

“Lol its been a weird and stressful month or so for all of us. Glad I got some of you to laugh, which your comments, in turn, made me do, for that, I thank you.” Peck said in a reply to one of the comments.

We appreciate that people can still have a chuckle, it proves that there is still hope for us yet! Thanks, Craig, that was a good one.
