So broccoli leaves a horrible bitter taste on their tongues.

In 2011, Oxfam conducted a survey of people's favorite foods in 17 countries around the world. In the survey, pizza was the favorite of most people in 12 countries. According to researchers, the reason for this popularity of pizza is not soft dough, juicy tomatoes, but melted cheese. Hard cheese begins to melt at 32°C.

Then the milk proteins start to liquefy. Milk proteins are completely broken down at 54 degrees Celsius. Since then, Thakoth has produced cream-like cheese. This hot melted cheese enhances the taste of the pizza manifold.
