Pizza - An American Obsession

It might be hard to believe, but Americans' obsession with pizza didn't actually start until less than a century ago. While the concept was first imported from Italy in the early 1900's, this global comfort food didn't start to achieve widespread popularity until September 1944 following a New York Times  piece about pizza in Southern Italy. Fast forward to modern times, and 13% of the American population over the age of 2 consumes pizza on any given day.

Here, we take a look at the most famous pizzerias across the country.
