LOGAN SQUARE — New York's Pizza Rat has got nothin' on us.
We've got Logan Square's Pizza Squirrel.
A video of the critter happily munching away was captured by restaurateur Paul Biasco of Quiote,
who tweeted it out over the weekend.

Before helping launch Quiote, at 2456 N. California Ave., Biasco was a DNAinfo reporter.
Squirrels typically eat seeds, nuts and fruits, but have been known to also swallow small insects, caterpillars, small animals and snakes.
And the occasional slice.
