Pizza cone takes a slice of food-on-the-move action
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

If the Kono Pizza catches on, Italy's most well-travelled contribution to the world of fast food will finally be able to hold its own against Big Macs and doner kebabs.
It is the invention of Rossano Boscolo, an Italian hotelier whose father had him rolling out pizza dough when he was a boy.
Marco Piva, a Milanese architect, has designed a cone-theme kiosk where the pizzas will be cooked and sold on the Italian high street. The first dozen shops are to open across Italy in the coming months.
The concept is to offer real Italian pizza - no pineapple and curried chicken abominations, please - in a handy new form.
The basic Margherita, with tomato sauce, cheese and a sprig of basil, will be the mainstay, and other varieties, such as four seasons and capricciosa, will be available as well.
The expected price for each Kono Pizza is about €2.80 (£1.90).
