        The History of the Doughnut                                

                   Doughnuts have been around for centuries.  Archaeologists found petrified  ruins with with burned fried cakes with holes in them.  They were found in the Southwestern United States.  No one knows how these Native Americans prepared their doughnut.

Known as oily cakes or olykoeks in the mid 19th century, the Dutch were credited with taking dough balls and then frying them in pork fat.  The ones who really brought the oily cakes to America were the pilgrims.  The doughnuts were made with apples and raisins in the center.  There was a problem though, when the oily cakes were pulled from the kettle the center was  hardly cooked.  Inserting a filling that only needed to be warmed was the solution.  That is how the hole appeared in the middle of the doughnut.  That is the history of the doughnut.

The History of the Hamburger

 

              The hamburger was invented in New Haven Connecticut in 1900.  Louis Lassen, owner of Louis' Lunch had a customer that wanted lunch and the customer wanted it in a hurry.  So the cook put the beef patty between two slices of bread.  Louis' customers had a choice of tomatoes, onions, or cheese on the burgers.  That is the short history of the burger.

The History of the Pizza

                   The pizza, as the Italians called it, was created in 1889.  Queen Margherita took an inspection tour of Italy.  She found that many people were eating large pieces of bread.  She was very curious about this strange piece of bread that people were eating.  She ordered her guards to bring her a piece of this bread.  She absolutely loved it!  She went back to her palace and ordered her chef to make the bread.  Her chef Rafaelle made it special with tomato sauce and  Mozarella Cheese.  It also had basil to represent the colors of the flag Red, White, and Green.  The queen absolutely loved this special bread and decided to call it pizza.  That is the amazing history of the pizza.
