thats why IN Italy you dont find dominoes, pizzahutt.. and little ceaser they are American pizzas, typical other nations ripping off Italian ideas and globally exporting it.. good on them.. Still PIZZA is Italian!
probably some immigrant to NEW YORK who brought pizza.. and then they mass produced it to and the rest is history.. |
Technically, pizza was invented in Greece long before Italy even existed. They even imported mozzarella cheese from India in making them. Italy's sole contribution to pizza is tomato sauce, but that is primarily because they got tomatoes from Mexico right after Spain and were actually able to grow them locally.
Tomorrow, I'm going to add cabbage to unflavored ice-cream and then lay down the claim I invented all ice cream! Actually, no, I'm going to Yongsan to pick up a new graphic card so I can finish setting up my media server. Then I'm meeting a couple people for a social event.

IM sure you know the thin crust? woodfired.. |
Thin crust pizzas are available from most restaurants, and many places even specialize in using wood stoves. They aren't as popular as the image shown in TV commercials, but widely available. I actually prefer the thin-crust style, but I am in the minority. |
