Pizza For Sale

1 Where and when was pizza first made? Experts cannot seem to agree on an exact place and time. They do agree that pizza was not first made in the United States. Pizza appeared in the U.S. in the late nineteenth century. Italian immigrants began selling it in their neighborhoods in large cities. In Chicago, a pizza maker would walk up and down the streets. He would carry pizzas in a large metal washtub on his head. Experts say that was the way that pizzas were sold in Naples, Italy. Pizzas then began to appear in grocery stores and small cafes.
