Pope Leo XIV Installs Deep-Dish Pizza Oven in Vatican Kitchen

The Vatican�s historic kitchens, once home to Renaissance-era recipes, now feature a Chicago-style pizza oven�a gift from the city�s mayor. "The sausage is theological," the Pope declared, layering cheese like "the strata of Church tradition." Outraged Italian chefs protested by serving only deconstructed bruschetta at the next papal dinner. Food historians note this is the worst Vatican culinary schism since the 16th-century "Garlic Wars." Meanwhile, Chicago pizzerias report a surge in orders labeled "The Leo Special."
