This is Funny if you think about it because Modern Pizza originates from the USA and Pasta from China

Naples. Modern pizza comes from Naples.

That dish was then taken to New York where shredded cheese was used in place of the slices used in Neapolitan pizza.

Pasta on the other hand, does descend from a Chinese dish. Sort of. The Proto-italians actually invented some types of pasta dish themselves, notably the precursor to lasagna and ravioli.
