same as the other idea - lot's missing here - any given address may not have a direct parabolic trajectory from the pizza shop - and, assuming my house doesn't have a suitably placed window, or pizza-flap - the chances are that my pizza will end up enspattened in a way that would make it less than tempting as a food item. |

You've also got significant windage issues if your projectile is going to be pizza shaped - you could have mitigated these somewhat by having the pizza spin, frisbee style, but as an explosively launched payload, the shape is going to severely, and chaotically affect accuracy. |

Perhaps a shape-charge could be employed to form calzone at the last minute, or to unfurl a ball-shaped pizza into the final shape at the final moments before impact - but as it is, I seriously question whether this idea has any practical merit. |

This is like Beanangel, but without the considered prose or
the underlying idea. |
