Kerry pizza: Savvy restaurateur cashes in on nuke talks

LAUSANNE, Switzerland (AP) Whether or not Secretary of State John Kerry succeeds at nuclear talks in Lausanne with Iran, his name will live on in this lakeside Swiss city as a pizza.

Garnished with chicken, bacon, onions and rocket salad, the "John Kerry mini-pizza" went on sale Monday at an eatery as part of a menu that includes a small salad and a desert. The price? 18 Swiss francs just over $18.

Proprietor Francoise Tribolet says she thinks the offering will be popular, although it is too early to tell just a few hours after it went on sale. Asked why the name, she says "because he's here."

Tribolet says the pizza will join other full-size pizzas on the permanent menu named after President Barack Obama and other statesmen.
