    The name...

    What does Hungry Enough To Eat Six mean?

    The name was inspired by this Yogi Berra quote: "You better cut that pizza into four pieces, I'm not hungry enough to eat six!"

    Unlike Yogi, I am ALWAYS hungry enough to eat six! Lucky for me and all of you, there is endless taste inspiration across the six New England states.
