Who invented Pizza?!
Answers: I've herd rumors about the chinese did and the italian did I want to settle this dispute once and for all
Pizza is one of those foods for which we will never know a specific origin. For one thing, the definitions of pizza are many and varied. Putting stuff on flat bread as a meal certainly goes back as far as ancient Rome. The word "pizza" itself appears just before 1000 AD, in the area between Naples and Rome, meaning "pie."
There are traditional pizza-like dishes in Provence where bread (or sometimes a pastry) is topped with onion, tomato, anchovies, and olives. In the Middle East, lahma bi ajeen is a pizza base with minced onions, meat, and flavorings.
So we need to start with some definitions. Shall we confine our attention to American pizza, now found throughout the world? If so, no problem--it was invented in America in the 1950s. That's probably not the answer you were looking for, although the New World did make possible pizza as we know it today.
Instead let's define modern pizza as the tasty conjunction of flat bread, tomato sauce, and cheese. Most food historians point to Naples as the area of origin, and to Napoletana, the pizza of Naples, as the archetype of this type of pizza.

I'm afraid you'll never be able to settle this question "once and for all".
There are a number of ancient cultures that made and consumed some sort of Flat Bread baked in an oven.
It's like asking "who invented the dumpling"...LOL
I say the Neapolitans invented pizza as you and I know it today. I believe it was the Italians who first used a tomato and cheese topping....so if we are talking about modern pizza my vote goes to Italy.
Greeks invented pizzas
italians
Italians.
The round pizza as we know is sometimes called Neapolitan Pizza it is credited to have orginated in Naples, Italy, hence the term Neapolitan.
It's this Italian guy calle Pizzorio Rezoliti :)
it was spaghetti with chinese...not pizza... there isn't nothing similar to pizza in chinese food...
pizza (the modern concept...) is italian from 1800...
than,in ancient wold was common use a slice of bread similar to pizza,with no topping...there wasn't nothing else to eat...
