Pepperoni, despite being one of the most popular pizza toppings in the world, is a tricky beast. The right pepperoni needs to be crunchy but not burnt, zesty but not greasy, and have a precise circumference that allows for the appropriate amount of pepperonis on the pizza. Mountain Mike’s is well aware of this pepperoni conundrum, and appears to have the equation solved with their mountain-sized pepperoni pizza.

This beast of a pie comes with over 200 mini pepperonis that, due to their natural casing, curl up, giving the edges a perfect crisp and distinct look.

And what else is mountain-sized about this pizza, exactly? 

Well, how about everything.

The other immediately apparent feature is the size of the pie. Spanning 20 inches, this pizza is big enough to feed even the largest of appetites. In comparison to other top 25 pizza brands, the next largest pizza being sold comes up a whole 2 inches shorter than Mountain Mike’s pizza. 

Since it is impressively large, so too are the slices. All 20 of them extend to the that you’re well satisfied with one. And, with such long slices comes the ever so crucial cheese pull,, which will be no problem to capture considering each pizza comes with over a pound of cheese on it. 

You can get this massive ‘za at any Mountain Mike’s on any day. But, on September 20th, in honor of National Pepperoni Pizza Day, it can be had for $5 cheaper than usual with the code 624368. They’ll also be running a special for $3 off any Large size pizza on the same day with the code 889573. 

So be sure to get a mountain-sized pizza on the 20th for you, your family, your extended family, your significant other’s extended family — whoever! It can definitely feed all of them.

County fairs are widely known for fun and decadence, whether it be through the rides, attractions, or the food. And speaking of the food, in recent years its become the main attraction for many looking for some prime time indulgence. Usually deep fried, a sweet treat, or both, fair food scratches cravings that you didn't know you had, like a sudden hankering for deep fried butter. However, most of these foods are noticeably missing some pops of vibrant color. That's why the LA County Fair is going POP this year for their theme and rolling out a special discount POP Menu, where select foods are full of color and only $6.50. Check out some of our favorite picks below:

Tajin Dole Whip

Nitro Treats is taking Dole whip from Disneyland and bringing it right to your favorite mangonada stand. In a varied take on the treat, they're topping a smooth pineapple Dole whip with Chamoy and Tajin to give it that sweet chili flavor with a little bit of spicy zest.

Deep Fried Uncrustables

Chicken Charlie is a Southern California fair staple that's serves up a constantly rotating menu of off the wall fried foods. This time they're using a familiar after school snack: the Smuckers Uncrustable. By dipping it in a colored batter, they're turning the Uncrustable into a red nugget of deep fried deliciousness. Topped with a strawberry drizzle, powdered sugar, and fruity pebbles, this treat is bursting at the seams with vibrancy and flavor.

Rainbow Pop Grilled Cheese

Grilled cheese sandwiches might be the most comforting of comfort foods, but they're not much fun to look at. The Dog House is addressing this by giving the cheese some POP. By using four different colors of cheese, once this sandwich has been grilled, it becomes a gooey, yummy rainbow.

Unicorn Elote

Though delicious, all elote is usually similarly colored. Crazy Corn is here to fix that. They're covering their corn with the usual mayo and butter combo, and then smothering the whole thing in different colored cheese to give it a full rainbow spectrum of colors.

Poprock Texas Donut

Everything is bigger in Texas, even the donuts. Aptly named Texas Donuts, this donut shop is covering a massive donut with a classic glaze, and then pop rocks. This gives the donut some color pop and a literal pop once you bite in.

32Oz Root Beer Float

How could you make a root beer float better? It's already sweet, creamy, and delectable. Well, you could super-size it, shooing the disappointment of finishing off until later. And that's exactly what MacPherson's Ice Cream is doing. This root beer float comes with a leaning tower of soft serve surrounded by a 32 oz. moat of root beer.

Chocolate Dipped Jerky

This sweet meat just got even sweeter. Timbo's Beef Jerky will have giant sticks of their chewy, savory jerky covered in luscious chocolate and sprinkles, to give it some color.

Which of these items sounds best to you? Luckily, it doesn't matter, as each item on the POP Menu only costs $6.50, so it's entirely possible to try all of them. And you can do this all at the LA County Fair in Pomona, CA, until September 22nd.

What’s not to love about ice cream? Especially, when it’s piled high with fresh fruit and a special blend of Tajin and Chamoy.

At La Michoacana Premium (pronounced Lah Meech-oh-ah-CAH-nah) in Anaheim, Calif., you can enjoy delicious mangoneadas — fresh fruit topped with chamoy sauce, mangos, and a choice of lime juice, chili powder and a tamarind straw. These traditionally authentic treats are made to order and are completely customizable.

In order to ensure freshness, La Michoacana Premium makes all their ice cream with fresh fruit and other natural ingredients.

With a variety of water-based popsicles made with real sliced fruit, cereal and other sweet treats, there’s a little bit of something for everyone.

From delicious agua frescas, to freshly prepared gazpacho cups filled with diced fruit, and freshly squeezed orange or lime juice, you can create a brand new flavor experience each time you visit La Michoacana Premium.

"An especially wet winter was largely welcomed across California this season for the relief it brought to a region suffering from severe drought. But for residents of Big Sur along the state’s central coast, an increased number of landslides and road closures have proven particularly problematic. The latest of which, a slide that covered a 1/3 mile stretch of Highway 1, is being called unprecedented. The Monterey County Sheriff’s Office posted a video on Facebook of the devastation with the following explanation: 'MCSO airplane Idaho 90 up in the air to put eyes on the recent landslide at Mud Creek in Big Sur. The slide went from bad to worse over the weekend and the video will give you a glimpse at the undertaking needed to open the road again.'" - The Inertia's Dylan Heyden (@hey_dylan) Read more about the Big Sur landslide on theinertia.com/environment☝️Link in our bio. #bigsur #landslide #TheInertiaEnvironment #MTNlife
