We have a local FB food group. A woman recently posted a pic of a pizza with
a rather thick crust and asked,"Where can I get a real, Italian pizza like
this, here?" We all laughed. That pizza didn't resemble any pizza made in
Italy and clearly it was something made here as it had the red and white
checkered tablecloth underneath it as well as a shaker of Kraft Parmesan
cheese.
