Does Pizza not deserve to be called the classic American Food, or is it still hot dogs and apple pie? |
Pizza evokes Americana like baseball and fireworks on the 4th of July. I'd like to dialogue on what pizza means to everyone. I'm producing some mixed media fiberglass art pieces dealing with Pizza for a local gallery exhibit and I'm hoping comments will give me that artistic insight that I need to excel. Here's you chance to be a muse. I think pizza has evolved to the point of being a symbol of americana. Sure it has its origins in a different country, but our country has many cultural origins from elsewhere. Also, look what people in america are doing with pizza that is uniquely american, most noteably deep dish pizza. Honestly hot dogs arent technically american either, they're from Frankfurt, Germany, thus the name frankfurters. Its the local sausage in that area. Still it also has evolved to be american with the way we treat them. Apple pie also has its origins elsewhere, France, Germany, and Italy all have a version of apple pie, nonetheless that doesnt make it not american. On a side note, in response to the first answerer, the Italians didnt invent pasta, the chinese did, marco polo brought it back with him. Source(s): Professional Cook/Culinary Institute of America Alumnus OMG I cannot believe you seriously think that Pizza is American... Surely you have heard of a little European country which had also invented Pasta, Versace and Ferrari? I thought pizza originated in Italy. I heard pizza was invented in China, so maybe it should be called Chinese food..... I like mine with pineapple and ham hot dogs and apple pie just had a better PR person.......... |
