12、just happened to match the colors of the Italian flag.

13、tude for the pizza from the royal household that Pizzeria Brandi displays appears to be a fake and may just have been a marketing plan.3: Hawaliian Pizza Invented by a Canadian.Sam Panopoulos, from Greece originally moved to Canada at the age of 20.

14、on a pizza at one of his restaurants in Ontario.“We just put it on for fun to see how it was going to taste,” he told the BBC in 2017.

Although medical sciences favourite creatures relish temperatures of a little over 30 , laboratories routinely keep them at five or ten degrees below that.
