Italy: make history, have a pizza named after you

Posted on Wednesday, June 18th, 2008 at 8:34 am under Finland, Italy.

After Garibaldi, Michelangelo and Al Capone, it was only a matter of time before Berlusconi got his own name attached to a pizza. The prime minister of Italy can thank the finnish “Koti Pizza” (“home pizza”) chain for the honor, and let’s hope this will help heal the finnish-italian gastro-diplomatic relationships that went sour a few years ago over some statements from the very same head of state. The ad says – I think -  “elected best pizza in the world” (although it could also say “mundane parhaaksi elect pizza” according to this automatic translator). I have no idea what the ingredients are, but knowing the finnish sense of humour I would bet there is parma ham.
