Pizza prices could drop

In a bit of welcome Friday morning news, Canadians learned their favourite snack could soon go down in price with the lifting of restrictions on mozzarella cheese. The cheese used to make pizza is regulated by supply-management pricing making it more expensive than mozzarella sold on the world market.

The Canadian Dairy Commission has changed the rules to remove mozzarella from the supply-management pricing. That change takes effect June 2.

The ruling could drop the price of a large pizza by as much as 10 per cent according to Bob Abumeeiz, owner of Arcata Pizzeria in Windsor, Ontario.

Canadians will find it a nice change from the relentless rise in prices of just about everything else.
