When my friend Erica, who grew up outside Boston, came to visit me in Hawaii, I wanted her to try the popular "Boston's Pizza" - a small chain in Hawaii. I wanted her to tell me what was "Boston" about it. In Boston, she explained over pizza, this would be called "Gino's Pizzeria" or "Luigi's Pizzeria". It's just NORMAL pizza, served by the (large, thin) slice, with different toppings, warmed in a large brick pizza oven. Before Boston's Pizza opened in Hawaii, all we knew was delivery from Pizza Hut or Domino's.
The reason for my remembering this today, almost a decade later, is because of a fun fact I just read:
"New Zealand is the largest grower of "Chinese gooseberries" although the world now knows the fuzzy berries - which did originate in China - as kiwifruit.
