Believe it or not, Pizza is older than the Philippines. That is if we will based such statement to the historical findings that this food has existed since time immemorial in Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cuisine. By 997 the term had appeared in Medieval Latin, and in 16th century Naples a Galette flatbread was referred to as a pizza. A dish of the poor people, it was sold in the street and was not considered a kitchen recipe for a long time.
Today, this food treat "intended" for poor people is a favorite of people from all walks in like. You live in a mansion or a high-end condominium and still crave for a bite of a slice of this mouth-watering dish, whatever the toppings are (My personal favorites are pineapples and/ or mushrooms). Same goes with the masa who can get a slice or two for less than P50 from fast food chains or stand alone stalls in their neighborhood.
I am a certified foodie. And on top of my fave hunger buster is pizza. For one, it was the very first meal that I shared with my wife. Now, it has always been a tradition that we eat pizza for special occasions for the sentimental reason or just simply because of it's unique and delicious taste and presence in almost all menus.
