Pizza is a beloved food that originated in Italy but is enjoyed around the world. While many cultures have made a flatbread product a meal, there is something special about the combination of dough, sauce and cheese on pizza that perhaps contributes to its addictive qualities.

According to the mozzarella distribution company Maestrella, the worldwide pizza market reached US $132 billion in 2021. Pizza is a favorite takeout dish worldwide. Though pizza is beloved in the U.S., Norway ranks No. 1 in pizza consumption across the globe. The U.S. comes in second and the United Kingdom rounds out the top three.
