I may be able to "Kick the Habit" but I don't have to "FORGET" the joy of eating pizza!!! In memory of the days, I could indulge in slices of Pizza, I help to celebrate, at least in spirit, The National Pizza Party Day on Friday!
I can just close my eyes and remember the wonderful taste of Pepperoni and mushroom in my mouth! :) ;)
NATIONAL PIZZA PARTY DAY https://www.nationaldaycalendar.com/national-pizza-party-day-third-friday-in-may/
Each year on the third Friday in May, millions of pizza lovers across the nation join in extolling the qualities of pizza on National Pizza Party Day. Celebrate by inviting friends and family to share a night of fun at your favorite pizzeria. Another way to celebrate is with a homemade pizza with fresh toppings or by having one delivered.
In ancient Greece, Greeks enjoyed bread covered with oils, herbs, and cheese.
In Byzantine Greek, the word was spelled “πίτα”, pita, meaning pie. A sheet of dough topped with cheese and honey, then flavored with bay leaves was developed by the Romans.
The modern pizza had its beginning in Italy as the Neapolitan flatbread. The original pizza used only mozzarella cheese, mainly the highest quality buffalo mozzarella variant which was produced in the surroundings of Naples.
It was estimated that the annual production of pizza cheese in the United States in 1997 was 2 billion pounds.
The first United States pizza establishment opened in 1905 was in New York’s Little Italy.
Pizza has become one of America’s favorite meals.
