Pizza Anyone?


Pizza shops in Naples, Italy are being accused of fueling their ovens in an unusual and disturbing way. Grave robbery is said to be rather common place in the area and even the coffins are being recycled. The wood from the coffins is thought to be being burned in some of the ovens of pizza shops in the city. Mmm, delicious!

Just don't order the "hickory smoked deep-pan". Particularly if someone you know who died recently was called "Hickory".

While I prefer a coal fired pizza oven pie (few exist anymore because of pollution laws) this is just disturbing.

The preservatives,coatings, etc in the coffin wood I guess would be the least of your worries.

"I'll have a pepperoni, sausage, and casket pizza please" .. Ewwwww :sick:

The grave-digger special.

It's been decades since I've been in Naples. We were in NW Italy last June but the pizza didn't taste funny.

coatings? i'm not worried about the chemical coatings (well i am but...) its the biological coating absorbed into the wood. :shut: :ahhh: :sick: :exclaim:

"the pizza didn't taste funny."

Maybe no clowns had died that week? 😊

Perhaps with the embalming fluid absorbed your pizza will stay fresh longer. Even if you leave it out on the counter overnight it will be fine the next day :ahhh:

Haha . Clowns .. 😝
