        Do you know when and where the first pizza delivery (传送) took place in history? In Italy nearly

    150 years ago.

        In 1878. Queen Margherita became the first queen of Italy. As the story goes, the queen grew tired of eating "fancy" meals and wanted to eat "common" food. Raffaele Esposito, the most famous pizza chef (主厨) at that time, was asked to deliver a pizza to the queen.

        He prepared a pizza with tomatoes, cheese and basil—the red tomatoes, white cheese and green basil (罗勒) which were the symbol of the colors of Italy's new national flag. As soon as the pizza was out of the oven, he quickly delivered it to the queen himself.

        The queen had never eaten pizza before and said it was one of the best things she'd ever eaten. Esposito named the pizza after the queen, and it has been served in nearly every pizza restaurant in the world ever since.

        Today. pizza remains one of the world's most popular fast fools. In 1973, US pizza company Domino's Pizza promised to deliver its pizza in "half an hour or less"—if the pizza was late, it would be free. Little Caesars, another US pizza company, offers a "Hot-N-Ready" pizza at nearly all of its stores. These pizzas are cooked around the clock so that there are always fresh pizzas available. You go to the store, pay $ 6 (about 42 yuan) and walk out with a fresh pizza with no waiting time. Pizza, it seems, might be the ultimate (终极)"fast" food.
