Pizza is one of the world's most popular foods

You can't buy happiness. But you can buy pizza, and that's kind of the same thing.

The crisp crust. The creamy mozzarella. The rich, tart tomato sauce. Is there anything better than a good Italian pizza?

Pizza has a long history. Flatbreads with toppings were consumed by the ancient Egyptians, Romans and Greeks. (The latter ate a version with herbs and oil, similar to today's focaccia.) But the modern birthplace of pizza is southwestern Italy's Campania region, home to the city of Naples.

There are dozens of famous pizzas that appeal to different palates specially in Italy and globally. In addition to the ready-made pizzas that are available at pizza restaurants you can also choose pizzas with only the ingredients you want to eat.
