>I do have to wonder whether it's really worth it to go through all this rigmarole to get the official Neapolitan pizza seal of approval.

In my neighborhood in Denver I have several Neapolitan pizza options. One is fully Vero certified. I go there often because it truly does give me the taste of Napoli from my childhood.

The best option, however, is recognizable as Neapolitan pizza but is much better than anything I have ever had in Italy (at least to my taste buds).

I feel like both really have their place and both restaurants have been around for quite awhile at this point so it seems to work for both.

That said I do appreciate the places that have are fully Vero certified because when I travel if I see that sticker in the window I know I am gonna have a pretty good pizza.
