Pepperoni pizza
Pizza is a type of food that was created in Italy. It is usually made by putting "toppings" such as:
- cheese
- sausage
- pepperoni
- olives
- vegetables, like tomatoes, or onions
- spices and herbs, like Oregano or Basil
onto a piece of bread covered with sauce; most often tomato, but sometimes butter-based sauces are used. (The piece of bread is usually called a "pizza crust".) Almost any kind of topping can be put onto a pizza. The toppings people use are different in different parts of the world. There are different styles of pizza, including New York, which has a flat pizza crust and Chicago, which has a fat crust.
