Until about 2 months ago, when Naked Pizza came into my life.

- New Orleans owned and operated. They currently have 13 franchised locations all over the country (and in Dubai!!) and are expanding with 19 more locations by year's end. An additional 8 locations have been awarded, meaning they will be opening within the next few years. Check to see if you live near one here!
- started by an anthropologist, the idea of the pizza is to get to the root of human digestion. Apparently grain has been absent from our diet for a huge chunk of humanity, so its a shock to our bodies when we eat highly processed, single grain breads high in sugar. The amount of insulin released to deal with and flush out basic dough (and most highly processed bread) is unnatural and unhealthy. Naked Pizza uses dough, called their "Ancestral Blend" that has 10 grains, plus prebiotic agave fiber and probiotics. They don't use sugar to season their dough, just agave (yup, same stuff used to make tequila.). The simple ingredients and heft of the bread Naked Pizza uses makes it tougher for our bodies to digest, which is actually a good thing.

- All of the ingredients used as toppings are all-natural. Now theres a huge debate about using organic vs all-natural in the company, but thats for another blog post. The basics are that their tomato sauce has no added sugar or citric acid. Their cheese is 100% natural, rGBH-free, real Wisconsin mozzarella. Their vegetables are all-natural, no additives and their meats are real pork, chicken and beef—free of growth hormones and antibiotics. Nice and simple.
- How can they expand with the speed they're moving without a national presence? Well, it helps to have the backing of Mark Cuban (of Dallas Mav's fame) and the Kraft Group (No relation to the cheese).
- They are the nicest company to order pizza from - the guys on the phone seem insanely happy to be working for their company and the delivery guys are incredibly sweet. Plus, I've never had a pizza be delivered in over 20 mins. Lightening fast, I tell yah.
- $5.99 for a 12" cheese pizza!? yes - Yummy and affordable!
- Their social media is amazing. I love following them on twitter (the deals rock and the links to great health conscious articles are awesome). They joke about how they're a social media company that happens to sell pizza. Hey, anything to get the word out about eating cleaner and having a healthier lifestyle is cool in my book.
So it's official -- my new food crush is a pizza company with a cute smiley face as their logo. Love at first guilt-free bite.
