SUMMARY: Pizza, a beloved global dish, traces its origins to flatbread in Mesopotamia and ancient Egypt. The modern version emerged in a Jewish community in southern Italy, where leftovers were placed on flatbread, later becoming popular in the U.S. through Italian immigrants in the late 1800s. American pizza differs from its Italian counterpart with a thicker crust, more sauce, and varied toppings. In the 1960s, pizza kits and chain restaurants like Pizza Hut helped popularize pizza in America. Homemade pizza is simple yet time-consuming, requiring basic ingredients, or premade crusts for convenience, with endless topping options.
