World’s Worst Invention:Toronto Pizza
The first week has been an adventure for most of us here in Cyprus. We arrived thinking that it was going to take a while to adapt to the different lifestyle in which we now reside in for the next month. From driving on the different side of the road to having to throw away your toilet paper, the month seemed like it might last longer then the 5 weeks we signed up for. But it turns out, its not that different at all. The people here for the most part speak slight English, which becomes very useful in a country whose road signs are in Greek. The best part is the hospitality we have received since arriving on Aphrodite’s island.
But now to the real part you are reading this blog. Toronto Pizza. We arrive first day and are greeted with pizza (Which at the time sounded amazing because we were hungry and did not have to pay for it). Well let me tell you a little something about the pizza we have eaten here twice. Toronto Pizza is the name of the company and has sold over 2 MILLION dollars worth of pizza in Canada… This potentially is the worst pizza I have ever had. Chuck’E’Cheeses pizza compared to this pizza is gourmet. The toppings are so bizzare. We had two choices: one with meat (ham, mushrooms, peppers, onions, and a bunch of stuff I could not recognize) and a vegetarian choice (onions, tomatoes, olives, etc..). The sight of peoples reactions when finding out for the second time we would be eating Toronto’s pizza was priceless. So here is piece of advice that I am ending on today.
Canada… Give up the dream of creating your own type of pizza. You failed miserably. Stick to syrup.
