History of Great American Pizza Bake

Pizza has existed since ancient times in some way, shape, or form. Different cultures made different versions of basic flatbreads with a variety of toppings. The word pizza was originally recorded in Gaeta in 997 A.D. and then spread throughout Central and Southern Italy. Pizza was mostly consumed in Italy and by Italian emigrants. After World War II, when Allied forces stationed in Italy began to appreciate pizza and other Italian delicacies, this changed.

A galette flatbread was referred to as a pizza in 16th-century Naples. Alexandre Dumas detailed the variety of pizza toppings in 1843. According to legend, on June 11, 1889, Neapolitan pizza maker Raffaele Esposito developed the “Pizza Margherita,” a pizza topped with tomatoes, mozzarella, and basil, to honor the queen consort of Italy, Margherita of Savoy, and to represent the national colors of Italy as seen on the Italian flag. Pizza has transformed into a bread and tomato delicacy that is frequently topped with cheese. Until the late 19th or early 20th century, however, the meal was sweet rather than savory.

Pizza was popular among substantial Italian populations in New York City, Chicago, Philadelphia, Trenton, and St. Louis when Italian immigrants first arrived in the United States in the late 19th century. Shakey’s Pizza, founded in 1954 in Sacramento, California; Pizza Hut, founded in 1958 in Wichita, Kansas; and Little Caesars, founded in 1959 in Garden City, Michigan, were among the first pizza franchises. Domino’s, Pizza Hut, Little Caesars, and Papa John’s were later restaurant chains in the dine-in pizza sector. Pizza is now widely available nationally, thanks to take-and-bake pizzerias and supermarket chilled or frozen pizzas. On any given day, 13% of the US population consumes pizza.
