On the night of June 12, about an hour before Israel attacked Iran, people noticed a sudden spike in pizza orders near the Pentagon. This isn’t the first time it’s happened - watching pizza deliveries near military buildings has been a quirky way to guess when something big might be happening, a pattern nicknamed “Pizzint” (short for pizza intelligence). While the Pentagon says staff usually eat in-house, the timing of the pizza rush and the airstrikes has made people wonder if the so-called “Pizza Index” is once again picking up early signs of global events.
