How many pizzas are sold each year? What’s the origin of the name “Margherita”? Since when do Europeans have eaten pizza?
Over five billion pizzas are sold all over the world each year.
Though pizza became a popular food in the U.S. in 1945, after World War II, it was brought to America by Italian immigrants 50 years earlier.
Pizza was being prepared by people of Pompei when the volcano erupted and buried the city.
Kids aged 3-11 prefer pizza over all foods for lunch and dinner.
Pizza Margherita was given its name by a chef who cooked for a 19th century Italian queen. She ate her pizza with tomatoes and cheese.
It is estimated that over three billion pizzas will be eaten next year in the U.S. alone. Europeans have enjoyed eating pizza since the late 18th century.
Of all the toppings available, Americans choose pepperoni, a king of salami, as their favourite.
