A long time ago, there were several kingdoms in Italy. Later, they became one country. During this time, Italians got some new ideas on cooking. The most interesting idea was to make pizza. The first pizza was not so delicious and did not look nice. So the cooks in Italy tried to make it better. Then this kind of food began to look nice and taste delicious. Soon it became popular around the country. Most people liked it because it was cheap, easy to make and nice to eat. Now Americans eat more pizza than Italians do every day. Maybe many people in China are enjoying pizza as a meal.
