The awesome goodness of Pizza explained [Infographic]


Ah pizza – the food of the gods come down to earth for the betterment of all mankind and every sport nut in the world. Although Greek in origin the pizza we know today finds its roots in Italy and it wasn’t until 1889 that cheese was actually added into the mix.

Of course the original pizza has been bastardized over the centuries with many kids these days thinking that the epitome of pizza goodness is what ever slides out of a Pizza Pizza oven and served up as a single slice to scarf down with a cold drink while trying to be cool.

The fact is that the pizza has a really interesting epicurean history with the wide variety of baking methods and the ‘nationalization’ of the toppings that go on it but regardless of the country you live int there is nothing more comfort foodish than a night spent with friends and a freshly made steaming hot pizza made just the way you like it.

The folks over at mypepperonipizza were good enough to put together a rather simple but fun infographic with some facts about pizza that you may not have known.
