Hi Uncle Phaedrus,

My request is for a recipe for pizza that was sold in the in-store bakery at Rini-Rego 
grocery stores in and around Cleveland OH in the 60's. It was sold by the rectangular 
piece at room temp. It had a fairly thick yeasty crust, a thick sweet tomato sauce and 
dollops of cheese. I suspect the sauce was heavy on tomato paste. 
Anyway, it was heavenly!

Thanks for your great website!
Rose

Hello Rose,

It looks like "Rini-Rego" became "Stop-N-Shop" which became "Giant Eagle."

I was unable to find any mention at all of their pizza, but I did find a Facebook Page where former employees of the stores might read and post.

See: Facebook: Rini-Rego Stop-N-Shop

You might try posting a request for the recipe or a "tastes-like" there.
