About National Pizza Month
United States
Ends: Oct 31, 2023
DESCRIPTION:
October is the National Pizza Month.
Pizza is a flatbread with toppings; in its original form, we called it focaccia. Dressing flatbread with seasoning goes back 7,000 years.
The first mention of "pizza" in history is in 997 AD, in Gaeta, Italy. Of course, tomatoes and tomato sauce would have to wait seven centuries until the 1700s, when Napoli chefs added the sauce. Tomatoes, originating in the Aztec empire, were as yet undiscovered.
It would take WWII to bring pizza to America in a BIG way. The soldiers stationed in Italy couldn't get enough of this flatbread feast or Italian food. The first pizzeria opened in the United States in 1905 in New York City. Until World War II, pizza was almost exclusively an Italian immigrant dish.
Shakey's was the first national pizza chain to open in 1954, and Pizza Hut followed it in 1958.
National Pizza Month was created in 1984 by Gerry Durnell, the founder of Pizza Today magazine. October 1984 is when the first issue of his magazine debuted.
