5th May 2026 - What toppings are on your ideal pizza?
Ermahgad I love pizza!
Pizza is my favouritest food :)
OK, toppings…
Well, I’m a lifelong vegetarian so anything meat is a big no-no to start.
Obviously I’d have cheese — the real kind, I’m veggie, not vegan — probably several different types of cheese because cheese is awesome.
I’d have tomatoes because it’s a pizza, y’know? You have to have tomatoes on it so that it’s healthy (…ish.)
Apart from that I’d probably have sweetcorn, mushrooms, maybe some peppers, red onion, possibly pine nuts, and definitely broccoli — broccoli on pizza is so under-rated. It’s proper lush!*
*Got very Wenglish for a second there, lol.
Now for the controversial part: what’s my stance on pineapple?
Well, they wouldn’t be on my ideal pizza, but I actually don’t mind pineapple on pizza.
Like, it’s not my favourite thing, but if it’s on my pizza I’m not gonna complain or refuse to eat it or anything — it’s quite tasty, and I don’t mind it.
I personally think it’s weird that people get so hung up on it — like, eat it or don’t, who the hell cares? *shrugs*
...This post made me hungry. I really want pizza now dammit!
I also don’t mind pineapple on pizza. I wouldn't order it if other things are available, but I like pineapple.
ReplyDeleteI know, right? It's just not a big deal to me! :)
DeleteI like pineapple...only not on pizza. And I guess I'll have to revoke your friend card now...
ReplyDelete😂
Seriously, I think in Italy we get particularly hung-up on it because we're like "we invented the thing, how dare you ruin it with pineapple?" 😉 Also, pineapple is so very sweet, and it's a fruit. It's hard to imagine that the two things can be a good match for tomato sauce. Then again, the Eleventh Doctor liked fish fingers and custard...(I mean, he's an alien, but 🤷♀️).
My pizza would have garlic and capers or hot salame and onions on it. But with my digestive problems, it's rare that I get to eat those now (also, I still have to find a place that offers the lactose-free mozzarella option...).
Honestly, I don't care enough to argue, lol. I've had it, it was nice, it was not so nice that I'd go out of my way to have it on pizza all the time.
Delete...I don't know what capers are, not gonna lie.
Maybe you know them by a different name? When looking for a translation (we call them "capperi" it Italy), I found they're called capers, or caper berries: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caper
DeleteNope, literally never heard of this thing, lol
DeleteToo bad...they're tasty!
DeleteLol, good to know! :)
