Pizza has been part of the diet since the Stone Age in one form or another. It had its beginning as a crude bread baked on a fire beneath warmed stones and used as plates that soaked up the gravies of the meal. It was improved by the Greeks with the addition of toppings such as olive oil, herbs, raisins, nuts or honey. Back then it was an economical and convenient food for the workers. Later Persian soldiers used their shields to bake a flat bread and then topped it with cheese and dates when away on their long battles. It wasn’t until the 1700’s that the pizza we know today became popular with its birthplace in Naples, Italy. This is when the tomato was introduced and became popular in Europe. Pizza was now no longer seen as a poor man’s food. Within the next 100 years pizza became a very popular fast food with young boys peddling pizza on the streets. One of the most famous pizzas was made in 1889 using red tomato sauce, white mozzarella cheese and green basil leaves for Queen Margherita using the colours of the Italian flag. Italian immigrants took the pizza to all parts of the world where todays pizzas are characterised by soft flatbread bases with tomato and cheese topping. Pizza is still a simple, convenient and economical fast food with a long history.
