Yeah, that's the stuff. Not an American invention by any means, unless you mean deep-dish pizza, which, as I mentioned earlier, is fine food but not
pizza. (Hand-throwing of the dough is absolutely essential, and skilled labor is the one thing the chains never, ever, spend enough money on. You also
need really high-gluten flour.)

Did you get the little salad and the hard-boiled egg with it? Those seem to be the traditional Neapolitan accompaniments. Part of the fun is balancing
all this on your knees as you try to cram the smoking-hot pizza into your face, sitting on the steps outside the centuries-old pizzeria.
