I appeal to colleagues pizzaioli, to pizzerias holders and to all / and those who prepare the pizza at home, but you, that products used to prepare pizza?
According to authoritative sources “coldiretti” in 2015 imports of tomato paste from China rose 379% which is equal to 10% of national production, and also scares the importation of olive oil from Tunisia increased by 279%.
Also worrying is the increase in the 17% casearei of products for the production of mozzarella from Lithuania.

Initial estimates of the 2016 They are even more alarming when you look at the fact that there is an increase of one thousand tons of wheat from other countries, mainly from Canada.
All this happens daily before our eyes without the actual indication of origin of these foods is declared on the label (allowed by current legislation).
I'll cringe when I think that if a small operator makes a mistake on the compilation of the table of its ingredients in its pizzeria can incur huge fines or even days of their local closing.
The pizza, only in Italy with a total turnover 10 billion Euros and, listen Listen… every day is turning out 5 million pizzas for a total of 1,8 pizzas billion per year.
The equivalent in terms of ingredients:
200 million pounds of flour
225 million pounds of mozzarella
30 million pounds of olive oil
260 million pounds of tomatoes
All these data make us realize that 2 pizzas on 3 produced in Italy, They are “contaminate” by ingredients from foreign countries. This is unfair competition.
