The Pope got a tasty taste of home when a Chicago-style pizza was specially delivered to him at the Vatican. The deep-dish pie, a nod to his roots in the Windy City, made its way from the U.S. to Rome, giving the pontiff a little slice of comfort from his old stomping grounds.
Editor’s Note: It’s a lighthearted but meaningful moment—showing how even global religious figures appreciate small, personal connections to their past. Plus, who doesn’t love a good pizza story? It humanizes the Pope while celebrating cultural ties between the U.S. and the Vatican.
