Floating pizza party at International Space Station

Astronauts aboard the International Space Station (ISS) decided to have a ‘floating pizza party’ and French astronaut Thomas Pesquet recently shared the video of the same.
“Floating pizza night with friends, it almost feels like a Saturday on Earth. They say a good chef never reveals their secrets, but I made a video so you can be the judge Everything but pineapple, that would be a serious offence in Italy,” he wrote.
Soirée pizzas flottantes entre amis, on croirait presque un samedi soir sur la Terre ?

In the video, the astronauts are seen holding the pizza base and adding various ingredients on top of it. However, unlike on earth, all the ingredients, including the pizza base, are floating in the air and have to be firmly held onto in order to finish making the dish.
The video ends with the astronauts showing the floating pizza to the camera before taking a bite.
Below is how the internet reacted.

So awesome. And plates not required. Saying that, Thus Spoke Zarathustra, Op. 30 (2001 music) should start playing at 49 seconds. https://t.co/I5ouVxEGX4
