This has been known since it's inception but revisionist history books / tv shows of the last decade have framed the lie that pizza as we know it is Italian. Fuck those lying faggots.
old news, but it was the Italian Americans that invented it.
Fun fact: Tomatoes were not native to Europe. Columbus brought tomatoes to Europe after he discovered America. He also brought potatoes and maize/corn.
According to the popular legend, the pizza Margherita was invented in 1889 by Raffaele Esposito, chef at Pizzeria Brandi. The pizza was allegedly created in honor of Italy's unification, with the three toppings—basil, mozzarella, and tomato—respectively representing the green, white, and red of the Italian flag.
It’s true. When I was in Afghanistan a million years ago, we went off to the Italian side of the FOB one day. Got some pizza.
It was definitely not the American idea of pizza. Bland as fuck. It was like a runny tomato sauce thinly spread over a giant cracker with some cut up sandwich meat sparsely scattered across it.

both these windows of time can be used to cook other food.
ancient romans used thin sheets of dough to protect the veggies and meat they were cooking, like using baking paper today.
