Freestyle ski athletes in Livigno for the Winter Olympics said they could not get enough pizza since arriving in Italy. Austrian skier Matej Svancer had been creating what he called “deadly” combinations of toppings, while American skier Troy Podmilsak said he had been having pizza for nearly every meal except breakfast. “It’s very hard to say no to pizza in Italy,” said Stefan Doubek, a driver for Team Austria.

Not a single person they interviewed came from a place where they have real pizza.
🔜✅️
Jealous
Why would u eat pizza all the time instead of pizzoccheri, polenta, cassæola, you know, traditional local food? Pizza is not local, wtf? Better than mc donalds i guess, cant expect much from turists
I use to ski in Livingo in the 1970 s was so beautiful , we lived in Switzerland at that time and loved going to Italy, winter Livingo, summer Toscana and Italian Rivera . Italy was always my favourite European country and the fabulous people . Those were the days.
How is this news exactly?…
Why eat the pizza with a fork?
There is no pizza like Italian pizza.
"Can i just get some macaroni an gravy?
Gravy, gravy, Tomata sauce" -Paulie
Anyone try to add pineapple to the pizza? 🍕
You can definitely recommend it for your opponent in front of the Italians
Both of you will win together at the next match, right? 😂
C’mon now. Italian pizza is just cheesy bread.
Report the real news…no one gives a flying f abput this bs
When the Moon hits your plate eat up before it’s too late…Ciao!…Urban myth has Italian Hotel Bed Pillows are stuffed with Pizza…When you sleep you dream Pizza…Molto Bien!
This is exactly as if the Olympics were hosted in Portland and everyone was going batshit crazy about their Cajun scene. Try local food people, you won't be disappointed: canederli, polenta, spatzle, casoncelli, speck, local cheese, braised meat, venison, risotto.
Italian pizza is great but your missing out if you skip on pasta and lasagna
Eating pizza with knife and fork is Not Approved
Sick of pizza cant get good one in Canada anywhere all freaking franchises here very bad
I can’t understand people not eating pizza edges/crusts… or people eating pizza with knife and fork!!!
No judgment! Pizza is very healthy food❤👌🤝
Good news for a change ❤
What Olympics? Hardly anything about it lately.
Please do NOT eat pizza with a knife and fork 😢😢😢
Come to New Haven CT 💯 times better
Thank you for answering my question that i had yet to voice from last night
Pizza in Livigno is like Key Lime Pie in Seattle
It's not rocket science. Ingredients in America will eventually make you sick. Regulation is so bad it's embarrassing what's allowed. Our government is for the profiteers!!!!!! The slimmy dark souls that are running the country.
There is nothing like it. Ive been to Milan, Rome, and Florence. The pizza is incomparable. Delish!
The acne scars of first guy should warn him about eating both gluten and lactose
This is the equivalent of going to the UK and getting fish and chips, or going to India and eating curry, or going to China and eating dumplings and noodles, or Japan and getting sushi.
That's the way in Italy
I used to order panini con tutto and spaghetti con tutto at Joe's Bar across the street from Caserma Ederle in Vicenza. Spaghetti with everything has pepperoni ham mushrooms sausage and melted cheese baked on top.😋
