Pizza Ponderings
Someone in the humour forum asked if you would eat pineapple or egg on your pizza, which got me thinking/wondering. What toppings do restaurants in other provinces/states/countries offer on their pizza?
Here’s a typical list of toppings which are available in most pizza joints in Southern Ontario, Canada:
Pepperoni, bacon, salami, ham, ground beef, chicken, Italian sausage
Hot peppers, green peppers, pineapple, mushrooms, tomato slices, sun-dried tomatoes, onion, green or black olives
There’s one restaurant in my area which offers pickled eggs - I’ve never heard of this before as a pizza topping (and I’m a *big* pizza lover.)
In Quebec (the Montreal area) you can often buy tomato pizza at Italian bakeries. It’s usually a large slab of deliciously oily dough with plain tomato sauce, no cheese. Sadly, you can’t find them in Ontario.
What pizza toppings are on offer where you live?

Down here in the South, I like barbeque pizza, with barbeque meat and sauce instead of tomato sauce. I have also had hot wing pizza, with the hot sauce instead of the marinara. Both are very good.

Yeah we have a lot of pinepapple pizzas. We also have the basic stuff like beef and mushrooms and ham and pepperoni. They have shrimp pizzas too and sometimes chicken pizza.

Chicken is good on pizza

chicken ^ yep, it's good
actually we can add everything and what matters is what we liked to eat or try new things.
pineapple pizza is called Hawaiian pizza here, there's lover's delight with lots of salami , then there's meat lovers, garden fresh with lots of veggies and other stuffs =)

Just the fact you gave us an idea of where you live is interesting in itself Misskatilynn.
Now I know what BBQ pizza is - I've heard of it before but I thought it was a regular pizza that was cooked on a BBQ. Thanks CJ!
That spinach alfredo sounds scrumptious Sharon. I've had frozen spinach pizza (from the grocery store) but not with the alfredo.
