Pizza is like the Earth's crust because...

The lithosphere is the cheese and the toppings. The cheese is the ocean lithosphere, and the toppings are the continental lithosphere.

The asthenosphere is the pizza sauce. The asthenosphere is known as the 'weak sphere' and can move independently of the lithosphere (like your cheese and toppings can sometimes slide off your pizza)!

The mesosphere is the crust!
