actually the american use of the word pepperoni pretty much sums up the majority of american peoples arrogance/ignorance towards the rest of the world......take a word from another language, use it for a completely different type of food than the actual meaning, then when using it, try and convince the rest of the world that it is "italian" .  Dicks!

Us wogs don't have too much of a problem with it. There are basically 3 types of Italian dried sausage. White string, pretty much a plain sausage, green string that has fennel seeds in it and the red string that has hot capsicum or chilli (pepperoni in Italian). The yanks or probably Italian born Americans more likely, have given the hot sausage the term "pepperoni" because that's exactly what's in it. Better than calling it "sausage with hot peppers in it". It's really got nothing to do with arrogance or unrelated food.

And if you have tried a Calabrian hot sausage, you will know that they are loaded with "pepperoni" are bloody hot.

Pizzas, in the Italian tradition was the result of left over dough that was not enough to make whole loaves of bread, so consequently they'd make these small, flat, round things and spread tomato puree over them and fire them in the ovens (wood fired of course) and eat them as snacks or appetisers. Eventually they topped them with other things and hey presto, the modern day pizza was born.

We usually eat pizzas as appetisers, not usually as main meals.

not disputing the origins of pitta style bread which is "unleavened" as opposed to pizza which is "leavened". Won't disagree with you on what you are saying. What I'm saying is that pizzas as we know it is from Italian origin as described in my previous post, a by-product of bread making, village style, if you like, because they didn't waste anything, even bits of dough. :D

You are correct in what you are saying, tho'

when Paul ask you where you want to go for dinner you can shout him a pizza.

They do excellent a-la-carte (spelling??) as well, my favorite is fettucini with orange colored sauce and slightly chillied prawns. We usually start with fried sliced hot ding snags from the wood oven and olives and ciabatta bread. The only drawback with the snags is you will drink 50 litres of water afterwards.

My daughter loves Cafe Amaretto, one of her favourites

Oh, and a nice bottle of cab shiraz.
