What pizza topping is best? Do you stick with the classics? Are you Pro-pineapple or no? Aug 27 21 10:47 am Link New York Thin Crust Cheese Pizza is all you need. Aug 27 21 11:30 am Link This combo: chicken, artichokes, green olives, and sliced roma tomatoes is the bomb. Aug 27 21 11:51 am Link The holy trinity of pizza toppings are peppparoni, shrooms and olives, chased with an ice cold adult beverage. There are many combinations of great pie options, from plain cheese to the works. Pineapple is not one of them. Aug 27 21 03:54 pm Link BBQ Chicken Pizza from California Pizza Kitchen ! Aug 27 21 04:13 pm Link Spinach, mushrooms, scallions, fresh garlic, and an extra topping of gruyere cheese. Optional - green olives, bacon, and/or tomatoes of your choice. Aug 27 21 04:33 pm Link Black olives, pepperoni. Sometimes onions. Aug 27 21 06:15 pm Link I don't know if they were joking or not, but one of my friends suggested putting grapefruit on a pizza. Someone else said they've tried it and it was delicious. I don't know if the other person was in on the joke or not. I'd be willing to give it a try, but i'm not a fan of pizza anyway so I don't think i'd like it. --------------------- As a side note the same person suggested putting soy sauce on Vanilla Ice Cream. I tried it and it was really good! I went to a cafe that shared space with a Teriyake joint and told them about it. All of the employees loved it too! (In case you're wondering, it makes vanilla ice cream taste like salted caramel ice cream, which recently was a big fad).

I am partial to using spicy BBQ sauce in lieu of tomato sauce and spicy sausage. Back in my college days, I found my roommates could not handle the heat of my homemade pizzas - meant more for me. Aug 27 21 11:10 pm Link Pepperoni is a classic, but I don't like it. What I insist on is shrooms, then ham or some other not-pepperoni meat, then onions, green peppers, and black olives. Or sometimes hot peppers instead of green. Pineapple I won't condemn outright, but it's only appropriate under certain special circumstances, on a rare day of High Weirdness.

I'm very traditional and pepperoni, extra cheese, and some garlic flavor do it for me. Pineapple on a pizza doesn't do a lot for me, but I will eat it if it's there. It just seems too far fetched from other toppings. Aug 29 21 09:16 am Link No pineapple on my pizza. Ever. Too sweet - I think pizza needs to be savory. In any case I prefer sausage & pepperoni with mushrooms, and sometimes bacon bits (turkey if I can find 'em) thrown on for good measure. It's pretty good. I use only goat or sheep's cheese, since I have a fairly serious (bovine) milk allergy. Goat's milk doesn't bother me though.

Aug 30 21 07:19 pm Link I've been trying to avoid scaring everyone... But you have to remember that the putting pineapple on pizza was invented in Canada by Panopoulos WAY back in 1962. Things have gone WAY beyond that since. Especially with the real gourmet pizzas (as I'm sure some of you may have already encountered). One of the top rated places for gourmet pizzas happens to be in my neighborhood (down by the docks). For those that believe that pineapple doesn't belong on pizza, you'd better seriously brace yourself...! Some 12" pizza examples from their menu (things get really crazy, including the prices, near the end!): - FRENCH ($29) Chicken breast, mushrooms, white onions, asparagus and single cream brie with a light pesto drizzle - JAPANESE ($29) Wasabe-scented teriyaki chicken breast, enoki mushrooms, camembert and sesame seaweed julienne (no tomato sauce) - MERMAID ($68) Shrimp, crab legs, tiger prawns, smoked salmon - SERPENT ($81) Shrimp, prawns, Canadian lobster tails(4), smoked salmon - STORM ($110) Shrimp, crab legs, Canadian lobster tails(5), smoked salmon - HURRICANE ($120) Shrimp, prawns, Canadian lobster tails(8), smoked salmon - C6 ($850) Medley of tiger prawns, lobster ratatouille, smoked steelhead, Russian Osetra caviar, snowed with Italian white truffles And no, those 12" pizza prices aren't a mistake! I am told by friends that the "Serpent" pizza ($81) with its 4 lobster tails and incredibly creamy sauce is to die for... Anyway, for those that feel that putting pineapple on pizza is an abomination! Aug 30 21 08:22 pm Link Paolo D Photography wrote: Maybe. But you have no taste.

Aug 31 21 09:57 am Link Who's to say what the best pizza topping is? Done RIGHT almost any topping can be delicious. Probably the best pizza I've ever had was a spinach pizza in Manhattan Beach! Followed by a steak pizza in Rio. Then following that with a Tuna pizza in a little town up in the mountains in Mexico!! But when at home nothing beats a good ole greasy PEPPERONI pizza with the grease puddling on top of the pepperonis!!! LoL John Sep 01 21 11:58 pm Link I have a go-to which is pineapple, bacon or ham, and onion. I like veggie pizzas. Olives, tomatoes, onion, peppers etc. Upscale, pears, bacon/prosciutto, herbs and hot honey. I'll eat anything on pizza as long as it isn't chicken or beef. Sep 07 21 12:59 pm Link Pesto sauce pizza made with fresh basil, topped with ripe garden tomatoes, pepperoni and artichoke hearts on a whole wheat crust. More traditional fair: Pepperoni, cheese, mushrooms, peppers, onion, maybe olives. Sep 07 21 04:11 pm Link Pineapple and bacon. And a little Mozzarella Sep 07 21 04:16 pm Link Model Sarah wrote: ooh i had some pineapple bacon ham the other day! Sep 08 21 11:51 am Link A Good Zesty Tomato Sauce is essential - followed by the Cheese or Cheeses Yes to Pineapple on Pizza .Best Hawaiian Pizza I’ve ever had was in Hawaii . I still remember it 4 decades later Smoked Salmon, Capers and Onion is Nice on pizza as long as the Salmon isn’t too strong tasting Oct 02 21 04:41 pm Link Garry k wrote: i cant even imagine that as a pizza topping. Oct 07 21 05:55 pm Link every meat in the joint that isn't peperoni or from the ocean, onion and olives Oct 08 21 10:54 am Link Pesto or olive oil base, with artichokes, basil leaves and banana peppers. Thin crust only. Pineapple isn't awful on pizza, especially if you have it with ham or pepperoni. It's fine, sure. Whatever. Oct 10 21 06:48 pm Link I'm not saying this is my favorite, but I lived in an area with a German background when I was growing up. I thought Sauerkraut Pizza was just a normal thing. Oct 11 21 07:01 am Link My go to regardless, stuff crust, thin crust, or regular. Pepperoni pizza/no sauce Nov 11 21 06:02 pm Link Avery Wilson wrote: pizza with no sauce? is that still considered a pizza? Nov 11 21 06:56 pm Link Pepperoni is essential without a doubt. Pineapple never seems to work properly, sometimes it gets burned around the edges. Cheese and tomato are also essential. Mushrooms are OK. Nov 15 21 09:16 am Link Cheddar cheese instead of mozzarella, tons of lightly fried vegetables and no meat, a very small amount of anchovies, salt/pepper/fresh oregano, olive oil, and lemon juice (important to put the oil and juice on before it goes into the oven). Then more lemon juice when it comes out of the oven. I discovered this by accident a long time ago when someone invited me for dinner and served pizza along with shrimp covered in a lemony jus and the jus got onto the pizza and it tasted amazing. Nov 15 21 12:11 pm Link If you want a meat free pizza, mushrooms and soft vegetables like courgettes are quite good, spinach is surprisingly good. Nov 16 21 02:24 am Link Would tuna be any good? Worth a try I would have thought.
