If anyone is ever asked what is a round object that is one of the best delicacies out there for people of all ages, their first answer always will be a pizza. It’s just something about pizza that just cannot be resisted and hasn’t been for centuries. Dreaming about pizza is a specific variation of dreams about food and anything related to dreams. The meaning behind is best understood as a variational interpretation of dreams about food and eating.

History of pizza

Pizza by itself does not have any hidden meaning. But if you can put it together with all the elements in your conscious life it could have a deeper symbolism to you exclusively. Pizza has been associated with Italy for centuries to come. However, its origins are old. 

According to historical accounts and archaeological research, it shows that pizza originated in the times of ancient Greeks and Phoenicians (first-century humans). This pre-historic pizza was flatbread coated with olive oil and some aromatic herbs. It was not until the 16th century that the tomato became a regular ingredient for making pizza.

There are innumerable stories about how the pizza we eat today was made famous.

According to some natives, flatbread with tomato and spices was a common fold cheap food in Naples of the 18th century. Visiting Naples, Queen Margherita di Savoia saw the natives eating the flatbread, even though it was against the convenience of a queen to eat the poor man’s food. She called upon for personal chef and the rest is history.

Today, it is one of the most popular street food all across the globe, made in all sorts of variations and all kinds of ingredients, from sweet to savory.

Dreams about food

Since pizza is just another type of food, let us explore what happens when you dream about food. The meaning of the dream depends solely on details. As food isn’t exactly symbolic. For example, if you dream about water it usually signifies your mental state. If you dream about food but cannot get in touch with it, it signifies various meanings. It usually means that you want something in your life, but because of some unapparent reason, you can’t seem to have it. The hungrier you get or feel in the dream, the heftier is your desire to have that thing.

Most commonly, it is associated with material possession. If you just keep staring at your food, the dream suggests you should lower your expectations about certain ideas and desires. If you dream about tasting food, it means that you are facing doubts about a situation you are in and you have confused about what choice to make.

If you tried too much food or fill too much on your plate, probably, more than what you could eat, it reflects your state of doubting your opportunities in your life. You cannot eat all your food, similarly, you cannot choose all the options. The dream suggests you should narrow your choices. If you tried food that you liked it indicates that you made good choices in life and vice versa.

A dream about making the food is a good sign. This dream signifies you could expect a similar situation soon but one in material form. If you are making food for yourself, it reflects that you are capable of making good choices for yourself or it suggests that you are well-aware of what you need in life and you will become more independent in the future. Whereas, making food for other people reflects your warmth towards others, your willingness to share and care for others as well.

Feeling forced to eat in your dream, the meaning is not good. It means that someone is feeding you bullshit in real life.
