This meme is referencing a very specific type of pizza which was almost universally served by American elementary schools in the '90s (maybe also late '80s?). It was basically knock-off Ellio's--rectangular with red sauce and cheese, relatively bland but palatable enough.
Really good YouTube video going into the history of that specific pizza including how to recreate it:
