When I was in Italy, the pizza which I ate was a very thin crust. The crust was kind of sweet - almost like a pastry dough. The toppings? Nary there. The toppings were extremely light. It was the crust which was the star.

Here in the U.S. it's the opposite: The toppings are the star.

Bob and I found a good takeaway pizza that delivers. The crusts are whole wheat and the pizza toppings we have settled on are pesto, basil, mozz cheese, tomatoes. Simple. Delicious. Healthy.
