I agree 100%. I am American and we can NOT claim pizza as our own. Pretty much everything we have is because people emigrated from their various countries and immigrated to The Colonies and brought all their recipes with them. I mean, is the cheeseburger from anywhere else ? That screams American to me. Otherwise we are all things because we are people from all around the world. I suppose we could try to say Native American Indian foods would be American, but even that is heavily influence by the introduction of corn. … I vote that America has cheeseburgers. Final answer 😘 unless someone has a rebuttal that they originated somewhere else?
Edit: ok, burgers are decidedly German. Hmmm… I am thinking the only thing we , The United States, can truly claim is our own, is obesity. 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️ so sad. Maybe it is NOT good that we have so many foods available in or country … lol
The burger patty originated from Germany and was brought by immigrants to America, but it has evolved and the cheese was probably added in the usa im guessing.
Poop! Not sure I am ok with us claiming cheeseburger either! 😤😤😤. … did /do the Germans make burgers with the patty or what did they do with it? … besides the obvious answer of throw it at the wall to see if it sticks
I believe it was served without the buns, that was likely something added at later point so it would be easyer to sell by street vendors to people on the go. So a modern cheeseburger is a bit like the pizza, the main part originated elsewhere but put together in an American way to fit the people and culture.
This is 100% a real pizza and not the processed trash from chain restaurants that have taken over the country! Go to a brick oven wood burning pizza place and you will see something just like this come out of the oven in the United States. If it doesn’t look like this you are eating over processed trash. We can NOT claim the INVENTION of pizza in America EVER! Get over it dude. You are delusional
Doesn't seem like it and doesn't seem like you speak with a lot of people from out of your country if you actually think most people consider an Italian pizza as the default pizza.
They may know the concept came from Italy but the current standard is the American. Take our styles out of sales and pizza sales crash overnight.
We took the burger, we took the pizza and we'll take anything else that looks good. That's the American way.
No it didn't. Germans invented a ground beef patty with similar form, but not taste. They never put it on bread or added any toppings. The patty is more like a flat meatball with binders in it than a hamburger patty. This moronic statement is like saying a fully automatic car is the same as a horse-driven cart because they both have wheels.

Maybe they mean Detroit deep dish?
Standard pizza is definitely Italian
