It's logical really, given that pizza was pretty much the first tangible non-cash item bitcoin was traded for (AFAIK). I'll sell you a couple of delicious home-made pizzas for BTC10k!

Well, again you see how mainstream media works.
Journalist: Hey Boss, remember that internet money I told you about, that one that could completely change our monetary system? That one you didn't want to make an artikle about?
Boss: Barely.
Journalist. You now can buy Pizza with it.
Boss: Well, if that isn't front page material.

Bitcoins first appeared in 2009 and are closely linked to the global network of computers that supports the currency and its users. Many people generate or "mine" the coins by participating in that network and a growing number of web stores and online firms accept bitcoins as payment.
They have become a very widely used alternative payments system and one bitcoin is currently worth about £17 ($26).
