Just in case you haven't been keeping up, here's your reminder that Wednesday is National Detroit-Style Pizza Day. Detroit-based Little Caesars is honoring it by offering its DEEP!DEEP! Dish for $6 with the promo code, DetroitDeepDish, a news release said.

"Detroit-style deep dish pizza is one of the most unique and delicious pizza styles," Little Caesars CMO Jeff Klein said in the release. "Little Caesars became the first national pizza chain to offer Detroit-style deep dish pizza in 2013. Today, we want to remind the country about the distinctive and delectable qualities of our hometown pizza style and give everyone a chance to try it at a great value."

National Detroit-Style Pizza Day was originally created by Detroit-based Buddy's Pizza, which is credited with first serving square-shaped pizza in 1946 at its original location on the city's east side.
