Some Italian (?) restaurants use the term ‘pizza turnover’ instead of
‘calzone’ or ‘panzerotti’ as well. Might add to the confusion….

Back in 1979 I bought a hole-in-the-wall pizzeria from a non-Italian dude for $1200.00. He showed me how to twirl the dough and bake pizzas (I’m Italian but had never used a pizza oven). He also introduced me to so-called “pizza turnovers.” Never had calzone growing up so I didn’t know the correct name. Only sold one a week or so, so I took them off the menu. I remember a small pepperoni went for about $1.90 and was still mostly profit. Not any more.
