How do italians eat pizza?

When we eat at a proper pizzeria (a restaurant that mainly specializes in Pizzas) we eat one whole pizza per person. Pizza is usually thinner than in North America (but it depends as in Naples for example it is thicker) much lighter, contains real mozzarella cheese (cow or Buffalo milk) and it’s not pre-cut. You will need forks and knives. Sometimes people will cut it with fork and knife and then fold the slice and eat it with hands. Everyone has his way. If you go to “fancy”pizzerias in richer neighborhoods you will not see people using hands unfortunately. People in my country can be very formal. A traditional pizza will be prepared in a stone oven with firewood but gas ovens can be used nowadays and with amazing success and taste even if some die-hards will refuse to go to pizzerias that don't use real firewood :)

Traditional oven: firewood is used

Pizza in Bari, my hometown: thinner, lighter and delicious

Pizza in Naples, a bit thicker. Naples is where Pizza is originally from

there are hundreds of ways to prepare pizzas. the menu can be endless in famous pizzerias. Pineapple is never used as a topping with some amazement from foreigners being pineapple pizza so popular abroad.
