Is take-away Pizza considered 'fast food' in Italy?
- aruggirello 11y agoMostly. On top of that, you actually have two variants: traditional, round pizza (which comes in common take-away square boxes, and may or may not be pre-cut into slices for convenience), and smaller, square-shaped sliced pizza ("pizza al taglio"). The latter is always considered fast food.
- ai_ja_nai 11y agoAgree. Italian fast food usually is squared sliced pizza that you eat standing in the shop, or on the go. It's fast because it is continuously produced and therefore, by the time you walk in, it's always already available, steamming and waiting to be cut. Take away round pizzas usually take more because the are made JIT for you and are considered more of a way to have regular dinner at home without cooking.
