More than 1,000 people petitioned for [California Pizza Kitchen](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/grab-grill-pizzas) to bring back its iconic Tostada Pizza and in response, [CPK](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/baked-mac-n-cheese) is bringing it back and giving guests the power to decide how long it stays on the menu. The Tostada Pizza will be available at all company-owned CPK locations on March 26th and if CPK sells more than 1,000 pizzas between then and March 31st, it has the potential to stick around longer.

Impassioned fans can track the progress toward 1,000 pizzas online or on California Pizza Kitchen's social media.

The popular [Mexican-inspired Tostada Pizza](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pizza-de-mayo-menu) is returning alongside all-new California Pizza Kitchen menu items, including the Green Chili Enchilada Pizza and Casa Paloma cocktail.
