We Think This Could Be Big in Sun-Kissed Miami
If you worry about how all of those hours laying at the beach are going to affect your skin in later years, then you might be interested to know that a nutritionist in Italy has come up with an anti-wrinkle pizza:
The "primula" pizza is made up of three times the amount of fibre found in a classic pizza and boasts that it contains more magnesium and iron, thanks to its ingredients, including wholemeal flour, La Stampa newspaper reported Monday.At least eight vegetables or sauces in the pizza allegedly create the anti-oxidant effects against ageing: tomatoes, rocket, garlic, courgettes, basil, mushrooms, carrots and spinach.
(For those who aren't well-versed in British vegetable terms, rocket = arugula and courgettes = zucchini.) So far, the True Neapolitan Pizza Association hates it, the pope loves it, and it's only available at one restaurant in Italy. But we imagine you could recreate the pizza at home. And then in order to get any real effects from it, you'd have to eat it every day, as we doubt this will work in a once-a-week dose.
To the creator of the pizza, we suggest you franchise an anti-wrinkle pizza chain in South Florida. The demand is huge, and we have none of those pesky pizza purists over here.
