Would you like Anchovies?

Just like back home, Japan has pizza. This is how I think it originated:

Japan and Italy had a business meeting way back when. There was a lot of beer and sake at the table.

Italians said, "Hey! We have this fabulous food called pizza. Let us tell you how to make it."

Of course, the Italians were drunk off their ass and slurring their speech.

"First,<snicker> you get dough and put cheese on it."

(The Japanese are diligently taking notes)

"Next, you put on <drunk giggle> CORN and seaweed! <drunk snicker>"
"Then you put salmon on it. No wait, SQUID! <drunk snort laugh>"

(Japanese still taking notes)

"Oh Mario, you almost forgot, the Mayonnaise and eggs!" <holding stomach because it hurts from laughing so hard>

<Italians pass out face first on the floor>

Japanese: "Well, lets try this. Oh, our flight leaves in 3 hours. Let's go"

Some years later, the Italian joke is a Japanese reality. The largest Japanese Pizza chain is "Pizza Royal Hat".
