The Roman legions travelled on cabbage and a pouch of grain, which they had to mill for themselves. This made them edgy and always on the lookout for better food. They still don't quite get the idea of pizza.

If somebody expected me to get by on cabbage, I'd be on the lookout for better food, too.
Any food is better than cabbage.

They had pizza (borrowed from the Greeks) flat bread smeared with olive oil. Thanks to Central Americans and a Spaniard, Italians were finally able to make something that resembled a true Pizza brought to its true maturity in New York City.
