-No pizza made in the country of Italy may be larger than 35cm in diameter, and no more than .3 cm thick in the middle.
-All dough used for pizzas must be hand-kneeded.
-Any and all motzerella cheese used as pizza toppings must come from the Appenine Mountains.
There are also laws regarding which kind of tomatos must be used, where the meats for the toppings should come from, and what kind of ovens may be used to bake the pizzas.
Only Italians could possibly concieve having laws regarding their food. It is that important to them that they need to make their pizza's so regularly so that they stand out. As if Italians don't stand out already.
Oh god, just imagine in two years, when the French and the Germans have caught on, and they start passing laws regarding their soups and sauces, and what kind of meats can have that '-wurst' suffix attached to them, like "Brockwurst," or, "Petewurst," "Porkwurst," and "Guntershimzerhimnenwurst."
Let's just hope the food laws don't spread over here, because then we'll have to start having laws invovling hot dogs and hamburgers, and fries! Good god: "No French Fry can be more than 4 inches in length, and each has to weight between .03oz and .07oz.
Crazy Europeans. We should annex Italy just to remove those stupid laws. Food is not supposed to be restricted by the government. Sure, if it's laws like "No food containing poisonous ingrediants may be sold," then fine, it's cool, but not laws like this. Food is the one thing that isn't, oh, my bad, wasn't, influenced by politics. Guess that changed.
