My Very Educated Mother Just Served Us Nine Pizza Pies Noodles
(Mercury Venus Earth Mars Jupiter Saturn Uranus Neptune Pluto)
This is the long, strange video about the planets pictured above, but click here to watch Toni Braxton’s great cover of the Blue’s Clues “Planet Song”!

I could be wrong but I think Pluto is a planet again. If it is, is pizza pies considered one p? Couldn’t it lead kids to think there’s another planet with p in the title? I also read the criteria for what a planet is is changing so there might be more food needed on the list.

Good to know! I was pretty sad when Pluto was declassified. I’m sure it will be easy to add foods if necessary.

The “pizza pies” song is something I remember from way back–a video shown one day by my Earth Science teacher. The double “p” never confused me.

Ok good. I think being from NY and the fact you probably know Italians helps. Pizza pie is rarely said in the south, where I live.

I honestly only say “pizza pie” when I’m singing that song to access the planets in order. I’m probably the only person who even remembers it, though.
