Picca is a type of Italian flatbread made from dough that is stretched and rolled thin. It has a texture similar to pizza crust, but is usually cooked on a griddle or hot pan rather than in an oven. Picca can be served as a side dish or as a main course, and is often topped with tomato sauce and other toppings. It can also be used as a wrap for sandwiches or as a base for pizza.

What is pica and how is it treated?

Pica is an eating disorder where an individual is unable to resist the urge to consume non-food items, such as dirt, paint chips, or paper. It is most commonly seen in children, pregnant women, and people with mental and developmental disabilities. The cause of pica is unknown, but it is thought to be associated with nutritional deficiencies, cultural practices, or mental health issues. Treatment typically involves restoring nutritional balance, addressing underlying mental health issues, and providing behavioral therapy.
