The Pie-Pod® Story: Innovation, Resilience, and a One Bite/Pie-Pod Pizza Challenge for Dave Portnoy that’s Out of This World
Pie-Pod recently launched two slices of pizza into the stratosphere. Now they’re challenging Dave Portnoy, the pizza legend behind Barstool Sports, to taste test these slices after reheating them on a Pie-Pod crisper pan. The challenge, if accepted, will take place at Dave Portnoy's One Bite Pizza Festival, hosted by Medium Rare, this weekend on Randall's Island in NYC.

Davie, Florida - September 12, 2024 - In a world where innovation drives the market, the creators of Pie-Pod® a unique product designed for optimal pizza storage and reheating, have a story that almost never saw the light of day. After years of development, they introduced a solution that allows pizza lovers to store and reheat their favorite leftover slices with a microwave crisper pan, ensuring a fresh, crispy bite every time. Unfortunately, their chance to take the online marketplace by storm encountered some unexpected obstacles.

Despite what some might call 'misappropriated ideas' during their journey, they made a conscious decision to avoid an expensive and time-consuming legal battle. Instead, they’ve chosen to let the power of their story and product speak for itself. While others may have attempted to capitalize on their innovation, PIE-POD is the original — developed with passion, dedication, and a vision to revolutionize pizza storage and reheating.

Their journey started with humble beginnings: a father-son duo, Seth Marquit, and his son Caleb, applied and were accepted to compete on Season 4 of Make48, a reality show designed to take new inventions from concept to store shelves within 48 hours. Though they didn’t win the $10,000 grand prize, they used the experience as a springboard to further develop the product, eventually selling out of their first 500 Pie-Pod units at the 2021 International Pizza Expo in Las Vegas. The demand for Pie-Pod was clear, but the COVID pandemic disrupted their supply chain, delaying their efforts to bring their innovative product to the masses.

To showcase their success, Seth and Caleb auditioned for Shark Tank. They made it to the final round and even purchased airline tickets to fly out to California for the show. However, in an unexpected turn of events, they were informed that Pie-Pod would not be moving forward with filming. Shortly afterward, a product with striking similarities appeared airing live on Shark Tank Season 14, pitching a solution to pizza storage and reheating — but without the ability to crisp pizza in the microwave like Pie-Pod can.

Pie-Pod has doubled down on efforts to reclaim its rightful market share. This weekend, in a Hail Mary attempt to capture the attention of pizza aficionados, they’re taking their mission to new heights — literally. Pie-Pod recently launched two slices of pizza into the stratosphere. Now they’re challenging Dave Portnoy, the pizza legend behind Barstool Sports, to taste test these slices after reheating them in a microwave oven on a Pie-Pod crisper pan. The challenge, if accepted, will take place at Dave Portnoy's One Bite Pizza Festival this weekend on Randall's Island in New York City.

The David vs. Goliath nature of Pie-Pod’s journey, along with their bold challenge to Portnoy, serves as a testament to their commitment to pizza lovers everywhere. It’s time to let the world know the true story behind Pie-Pod and why it remains the only storage and microwave crisper device capable of delivering that brick-oven taste for leftover pizza that’s out of this world.

They invite the media and pizza enthusiasts everywhere to join them at the One Bite Pizza Festival and witness what could be the ultimate pizza review of the century! Their goal is simple: to reclaim their rightful place as the top choice for pizza storage and reheating while showing the world just how far their passion for leftover pizza can go.
