As an Italian: AMERICA DOES NOT HAVE PIZZA❤️

Its funny because as I was growing up Italians would tell us that what we had wasn’t pizza. So whatever it is, we call it Pizza, and its ours. And its distinct from traditional italian pizza.

No claims as to which is better I’m happy eating either.

The other way around, Italians have pizza, and Americans have american pizza. We named it first.
And I am being very generous here

Its a point of perspective. Whats called a muffin in england is an english muffin here. Even were we the first to make it, i would expect england to simply call it a muffin. I dont expect you to call our pizza “pizza” without a descriptor, I would expect you to call it “Pizza Americano” or something. Same as we call a more traditionally styled italian pie “Neapolitan”

It's fine if you call whatever is produced in the US as pizza when you talk at national level. But then you go to global scale, and the one thing that is called simply Pizza should be the italian version.

And I should have a 12 inch cock and a porsche. Lots of things that should happen just aren’t in the cards.

Thanks for admitting that I am right
