Eating pizza is now a cultural activity

So feel free to put another pizza in the oven.

Or yes, you guessed it:it is of course a bit more nuanced. The Italian art of pizza baking is officially on the UNESCO World Heritage List. That news was announced on Thursday after the meeting of the UNESCO committee.

The reason for the spot on the list? Italy possesses great culinary knowledge and is admired for the production of the pizza. The gestures such as turning the pizza and Italian songs about making good pizza dough also make it a spot on the list.
