Why Pepperoni Pizza Sucks

Oh, forgot to add that inebriation had alot to do with the creation....I think we drew the toppings out of a hat.

People think I'm crazy, but here's my favorite
*Canadian Bacon
*Pineapple
*Jalapeno
*Anchovy

Like certain Southeast Asian cuisines, it combines the perfect combo of sweet, salty and spicy.

Question of the Day: What did Mom used to cook that no restaurant's been able to match?

Not that any restaurant would make it, but "Depression Stew"...dating back to the...well, you get the picture. A can of Veg-All (scary stuff), a can of tomato sauce, ground beef, onions and seasonings on pasta or rice (with Parmesan cheese on top). Sounds terrible, but to this day I can't recreate it quite like mom made it.

Pepperoni pizza sucks? What can i say... you are are crazy. Seek help. I appreciate the devil's advocacy – the iconoclasm, but... seek help. I'm serious.

Phew! Lotsa posts. I'm afraid I've never been particularly fond of pepperoni...I don't hate it, but I wouldn't choose it. Go-to favorite? A combo of cheeses, including provolone and Cheddar with caramelized onions. I have had a fabulous Thai pizza, and by that I mean traditional in form (shape, size of crust, laying down of toppings, etc.) but Thai in flavors (chicken, purple basil, a bit of peanutty flavor, coconutty flavor, a base sauce that'll blow the top of your head off). That was fabulous...could only eat about a slice and a half but for that many bites, it was intoxicating.

Whenever I try a new pizza place, I always order "The house special" because I want to see that place's idea of what the ideal pie is.

It is never a plain cheese or pepperoni pie, in my experience.

I almost never order sausage, because I love it and most places use crap.

My favorite place serves a pie with tons of ingredients and I savor every bite for the depth of flavors.

I am from Buffalo, NY - so thanks Machineman! I can only shake my head in bafflement at what the rest of the country puts on their pizza. Indian style? Demi-glaze? Tuna? Really, people? Come to Buffalo and get a good old cheese and pepperoni from Bocce, Bozanna's, Just Pizza, LaNova, or even some corner joint. You'll never want it any other way!

i love, but can never find pizza places that will put salami on my pizza. i grew up in massachusetts, and our family was a salami pizza family. it is SO good! now i live in nyc, and i did find one place that put salami on a pizza once, but it only had salami the one time. i had to comment on this, because i really dislike pepperoni, and it only makes me want salami pizza more!

Green olives and onion. I ate it first at the insistence of a girl I was dating. She's now a distant foggy memory, but her pizza toppings still provoke the occassional craving.
