We’re all familiar with that feeling of hunger, the one that hits when you can least afford the time to stop and eat. Sure, we’d like to be healthier, maybe have a salad, but in this fast-paced world the opportunity to sit with a fork and take our time with a leisurely meal is one so few of can fulfill. Sometimes the best we can hope for is a quick bite, a dash into our favorite pizza joint, a slice to accompany us on the rush to make our train before it leaves without us. Sadly, we all know all too well that sometimes we aren’t even allowed that simple enjoyment.

We are all Pizza Rat, and Pizza Rat is all of us.

Move over Smoking Crab! We have a new hero. One that understands the plight of the modern American, of whom much is expected, one of whom the battle must always be fought, even if sometimes we lose.

Pizza Rat, you know. You know the plight we all face. So today we raise a slice to you.

Well, that or you were just hoping to bring home something for Michelangelo to eat, in which case you are Splinter and we are still way into you.

Pizza Rat almost seems like the real life animal version of our favorite fake comedian, who also loves the pizza in New York.

Or wait! Maybe……just maybe.

Pizza Rat has us ready to believe again!
