Pizza in America

Do you like Pizza??

I love it very much.




I thought

Pizza=Italy

but it also

Pizza=America

If you go to NYC, you'll see a lot of hotdogs, bagels and Pizza!!

because I did!!


a lot and very very big.... and cheap.



I'm very interested in the history of Pizza in America, so I'll tell you



The biginning of American Pizza is Italian immigrants' home cooking in 19c.

In 1905, the first pizzeria opened in NYC.

In 1945, American soldiers in Italy(during WW2) were back to America and they bought it.

In 1957, frozen pizza appeared in grocery store and it became super populer!!

The difference between American Pizza and Italian Pizza is...

American Pizza is thicker than Italian Pizza.

and...hearty topping are the characteristic of American Pizza.


American Itarian
It looks yummy!!!


There are various ethnic groups and races in America especially in NYC,

and that's why there are many kinds of food and food culture in NY.

I hope you enjoy many many different kinds of countries' food.



Enjoy eating;)

    What's up Mariko!

    I think American Pizza is more popular than Italian one in Japan.
    I am curious about what Italian people think about the fact that Pizza is like an American food. Like you said, Pizza originally is from Italy and we can definitely say Pizza is Italian famous food, but at the same time, Pizza is really popular in America. If I were Italian, I may not feel good about it and I want more people to enjoy Italian Pizza. It's like a battle: Italian Pizza vs American Pizza.
    In fact, I like both types! yay! Why don't we have both types of Pizza at dinner and compare them someday?
