How to eat pizza in Italy 😉

[@clarab325]

im italian (not neapolitan tho) and i usually just cut the soft tip off first with utensils and then proceed to eating the rest of the slice with my hands. many people do the flip thing tho or eat it entirely with utensils (if you're my dad)

Living in Napoli for three years, i never ate Neapolitan pizza by cutting it into slices and using my hands. Never saw any locals eating it that way, either. Only ate with knife and fork.

Hmmm....the only time I ate pizza with my hands when I was in Italy was when I walked into a place where they sold pizza by the piece to go. I used utensils when eating pizza in restaurants in Italy; never picked it up with my hands.

[@jaziejaz7194]

Wow that pizza looks amazing.😋😋😋

[@Hey-Nikki]

Thank you for this helpful information. I had no idea!

[@spa-town1937]

I bet that isn’t how your partner holds his fork.

[@ingridnorman7919]

This is how I, a Swede, eat my pizza too. Don't want the toppings to escape and our pizzas are similar to the original in Italy - at least in thickness of crust

[@WLfstyl]

Love your take on US and Italy differences, keep at it!! Admitting to probably being an asshole, but do Italians die inside just a little bit when they see you using utensils in that way? I do when I see my cuz from the states eating. 😂😂 Must be my suppressed feelings as I was brainwashed on table manners by my parents. It's a big deal. 😅😅

[@maddieb.4282]

Utensils in what way?? Functionally? It’s not like she’s dancing on the table… what specifically is she doing wrong?

In 1970s, there was a pizza store in coney island Brooklyn ny that made real italian pizza we had to eat with knife and fork. I think it had a green storefront.

I don’t like pizza in America, but THAT looks delicious

[@laurendouglas6452]

The way I learned to eat pizza in Italy (Viterbo specifically where the pizza can be super thin and more crisp) is to cut the pizza in half, fold said half and eat it- cut to me visiting Italy again 8yrs later with my husband and just devouring an entire pizza like that on my own 😅

[@liana8568]

Lol i do that instinctively, didnt know it was really the way to do it

[@tamorap1614]

I live very thin pizza. So delicious!!❤

[@NeptunesHorses5909]

That fold and tip tuck can be seen with big slices from a round pie in the Northeast US as well.

[@gravityVL1485]

From Napoli: YES MY DEAR, THIS IS HOW WE DO IT ❤

[@kate_6436]

Omg I actually did that when I was in Rome and was worried I was like doing something wrong 😂

[@danielleking262]

oooh I never knew they didn't cut it for you! 🤯

[@aurora8202]

You can ask them to cut it for you when you're ordering.

[@chiara3922]

I am from Napoli, we eat plenty of pizza. Let me tell you, if you get really good at eating it, you get the little cornet to fold too and nothing will fall down.

[@sunsinger970]

Pizza as we call it was always an American dish. Everyone else fucks it up somehow.

[@francescofilippi2824]

I doubt you could find pizza in the US before the start of the last century

[@jesserose6548]

No it wasn't. What is wrong with you people thinking America invents everything? Such ignorance.

[@gabrielesantucci6189]

Ahahahah ahahahah ahahahah 🤦🇮🇹😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@dariajanus1999]

Is it thin?? I live in Rome and we say here that Napolitan pizza is thick and the Roman is thin haha

[@Uapa500]

Indeed!

[@keyLimner]

Yeah, I was confused too 😂

[@deojnwedofuWE]

They're going by American standards. In America (I'm not American so don't take me for an authority) you have new york pizza which is similar, you have 'Italian' or thin crust pizza which is thin but cooked until the base is crispy and doesn't flop, or you have Chicago pizza which is very, very thick, and if you're Italian you should probably not find out about because you won't be happy.

[@lisaturtle13]

Yes, that is VERY thin by American standards! Extremely thin. In America, most pizza crust would probably be considered like focaccia bread to Italians. It is thick and can be a little oily.

[@MagycArwen]

I have never seen anyone hold a fork that way... Also, why would you pin down the rest of the pizza with your fork instead of the smaller piece your cutting off???

[@csengea]

Haven't seen anyone doing it like this either. Maybe it's the American way? I know they are using utensils somewhat differently than in Europe.

[@micibob7572]

Americans and Canadians who think they are cultured hold it like that. Upper classes still know how to hold the fork ,they just hold it in the opposite hand from Europeans.

[@SmartyPoohBear]

Wait, not precut? Does that mean it's normal for one person to eat an entire pizza?

[@francescofilippi2824]

In a restaurant or pizzeria usually yes, but as you can see these are not American sized pizzas. You can sometimes find pizzerias where pizza is ordered "al metro" which means that can be shared at the table and it can be divided in different types in the same order

[@Ash_Wen-li]

In Italy (and Neapolitan places abroad) pizzas are one size and it's meant for one person.

@stateofswift.fanpage pizza is a Neapolitan dish, not Italian in general. So if you go north or to areas next to other countries you will find the strangest ways of doing things.
