Italy has opposed a Russian proposal to ban pizza in schools, arguing it is a popular and healthy food. The suggestion came from a group advocating for healthy eating, claiming pizza undermines traditional Russian cuisine. Italian officials, including renowned pizzaiolo Gino Sorbillo, criticized the idea, emphasizing pizza's nutritional value when made with quality ingredients. The Italian Society for Environmental Medicine supports pizza as part of a healthy school menu, suggesting it can be served with vegetables and fruit. The debate highlights cultural and culinary exchanges amid political tensions.
