Is it illegal to eat pizza with a knife and fork in Italy? In Italy you can eat a pizza with cutlery or directly with your hands. However, according to etiquette, you have to eat it with cutlery only if it's a whole pizza (e.g. as they serve it in a restaurant), while you can eat sliced pizza with your hands (e.g. as they serve it in the street food tradition).
