Wait until you start thinking about the first guy that tried cows milk

If you’ve never made homemade pizza, you haven’t lived.

I just made two last night and had all the cold leftovers this morning.

We wouldn't even be using nostr, the decentralised social media protocol if it wasn't for that bitcoin purchased pizza👀👀. The Italian mods can confirm

#[3]​ can you confirm ?

Si

Please don't summon her ffs 🙄

Thought she was gone. ngl was spooked

Never! (motions in italian) haha. Pizza is life.

sounds like a nightmare

is there no pide either?

We would be eating something else equally delicious

Dystopian

Or the first guy who figured out how to store milk in a sheep’s belly to make cheese. Imagine a life without cheese….

No thank you! Lol.

From age with cheese, now that’s what the French food.

All Italians would starve 😔

🍝🤌

No 🍕, 🧐 no #bitcoin 🧡😉

it would have been discovered by accident

Now that's a shower thought

E would starve 😂

People would probably still call it Lahmacun

Fuck that’s a scary thought

There would be a proliferation of meatball sub style sandwiches, including pineapple+ham+cheese+tomato sauce sandwiches.

Kind of like marsupials in Australia: the existing solution evolves to fill the niche.

Did you know a chef getting mad at his meatballs caused the invention of the burger?

Nope

Yah! The chef slammed his spatula down on his meatballs while angry cooking, which made the first burger patty. He then took this party and placed it in a small bun, creating the first slider, people ate it and liked it.

Patty* though surely it was a party now!

What if cows never existed?

No ice cream, cheese or steak..

dear god

😋

Bull what now, #[5]​ ?

Shit?

😭🤣🤣😂🤣

🫵🏻

How would we explain that Bitcoin is worthless?

No pizza, no civilization.

We would still have empanada

Your question is interesting because it speaks to the interconnectedness of culture, food, and history. If pizza had never been invented, it would indeed have a significant impact on our society and culture in a variety of ways.

1. **Culinary Impact**: Pizza has had a huge influence on global cuisine. It's one of the most widely recognized and universally enjoyed foods. If it never existed, our global culinary landscape would be significantly different.

2. **Economic Impact**: The pizza industry generates billions of dollars in revenue annually, providing employment to millions of people worldwide, from pizza makers to delivery drivers. Without pizza, the economic impact would be substantial.

3. **Cultural Impact**: Pizza has deeply ingrained itself into many cultures. In the United States, for example, it has become a staple of fast food and is a centerpiece of many social gatherings, from birthday parties to late-night study sessions. It's also a significant part of pop culture, appearing in movies, TV shows, and books.

4. **Nutritional Impact**: While pizza isn't always the healthiest choice, it does provide a relatively balanced meal, containing carbohydrates, fats, proteins, and some vitamins and minerals (depending on the toppings). For some, it's an accessible and affordable meal option.

5. **Innovation**: The concept of pizza has led to a variety of other food innovations, such as calzones, stromboli, and various "pizza-inspired" dishes. Without pizza, these food items might not exist, or at least not in the forms we know them today.

It's fascinating to think about how a seemingly simple dish like pizza has had such a profound impact on our world. But remember, food is an ever-evolving aspect of human culture. If pizza hadn't been invented, it's likely some other dish would have risen to take its place in some form or another.

sorry. I had to ask GPT-4

It‘s almost sad how clearly recognizable this was a GPT answer. #einheitsbrei

Yes, I see also the queality of GPT-4 decreasing over time. The first ones were the most human. The more he will be trained to more clear it appears it is an AI thing. Sadge

Also we are quite adaptable. Maybe we‘re simply past the initial awe.

There would simply be no reason to exist.

There is a version of universe without pizza.

As well as there is a version of universe where people put pineapple 🍍 on steaks instead of pizza and all of them are well done.

that guy who spent 10k btc on pizzas, I bet he is thinking the same thoughts..

Im sure there is societies who have no idea what is pizza... And those have no other technologies or others too.

Im just saying there might be correlation.

What if it was a mistake? You may never sleep again.

well, at least we'd never have the abomination of putting pineapple on pizza if that were the case.

😂😂

There’s probably a really delicious food nobody’s thought of yet and we might never get to taste it!!😦

Like Bitcoin, pizza was inevitable.

What about the “pizza” we don’t even know to invent that has been left undiscovered
