"pizza timeline" news and stories

The Pizza Belt

 Slice NY, the blog that revolves around pizza, has featured an excerpt from Ed Levine's Pizza: A Slice of Heaven. This particular excerpt concerns the existence of the pizza belt, that swath of America along which the first and best pizzas in the country originated. Essentially, the "belt" seems to have spread along patterns of southern Italian immigrants, coming into Ellis Island in New York and gradually spreading over towards Boston. Stretching over a 33 year period, the American pizza timeline clearly shows the launch of some of the mainstays of pizza-dom. Slice also has a textual account of the history of pizza in America, contributed by Mr. Levine.
