It might be designed that way to make the nutritional facts more appealing. They can define the portion sizes arbitrarily, so the per-portion amounts don't look so high.

I dunno about y'all, but I cut my pizza's into 1/8ths, which would be smaller than 1/5.

I'd be willing to bet that this particular pizza is very small, so most people would cut it into 1/4ths.

I always cut my frozen pizzas into eighths. I eat the whole thing in one sitting either way, but I prefer smaller slices.

The FDA is in charge of portion sizes. No one decides it on their own.

What a company can do is fiddle with the total number of portions. Which is how you get 5 portions in this pizza.
