When I lived in a war-on-drugs city 15 years ago, we always used “pizza” as a code word for weed. A pie was an ounce, and a slice was an eighth. We’d call each other and ask if we wanted to eat some pizza tonight, and how much they wanted to eat. We always knew if it was actual pizza or weed based on tone of voice.

I used to sell weed out of a pizza place. We used that verbiage too, but I’d also just have folks roll through and ask for a Bob Marley extra crispy, and they’d get pizza and weed. Was a win win. Loved that job.
