Pizza has become one of the most popular dishes in modern civilization. The versatility of pizzas maintains its tradition as a meal and is considered a dish for any occasion. From a casual event to an upscale party, pizza is the choice of many when it comes to food.  What is so amazing about pizza is that it started as a meal peasants could not afford, and evolved to gourmet dishes loved all over the world. As pizzas have evolved and recipes have changed to many different types of pizzas, there are some aficionados that insist on keeping pizza original, and in its purest form, trying to maintain a tribute to its roots and origins.

            The word pizza is believed to be from an Old Italian word meaning “a point,” which later became the Italian word “pizzicare,” which means “to pinch” or “to pluck.” Pizza can be described as a baked pie of Italian origin consisting of bread-like crust which can be thick or thin, covered with seasoned tomato sauce, cheese, and often other toppings such as: sausage, meats, olives, anchovies and many more.

In all reality the true origin of pizza is unknown.  It could have been invented by the Phoenicians, the Greeks, Romans, or anyone who learned the secret of mixing flour with water and heating it on a hot stone, but what is true about pizza is that it has been a basic part of the Italian diet since the Stone Age.  This earliest form of pizza was baked beneath the stones of the fire.
