BTW, your like an artist or something, I'm impressed.
Yeah, corn, baked beans, potatoes, mac and cheese, etc. None of these go real well in pizza though.

But I'm wondering if the spinach might still work. If paired with gouda cheese.

Re: Pizza

Post by Richie Allen »

I enjoy a lot of different style pizzas (St. Louis, Chicago, NY, etc...) and love (almost equally) thick, thin and "cracker," but am not a big fan of a lot of toppings. I like sausage, pepperoni and I don't mind those two together. I can tolerate green peppers and onions but I'd probably never order them myself unless it was from a couple places that dice them up really small. I think that great pizza needs to stand on its own, without being too dressed up. I love a great cheese pizza.

Has anyone ever had this exchange?
Richie: So what do you want on your pizza?
Toppin' Lover: Oh I want green peppers, mushrooms, onions and black olives.
Richie: I'm not crazy about any of those and I won't eat mushrooms and black olives.
Toppin' Lover: But you can't even taste them.
You can imagine what my next question would be.

The two toppings I do have to have are hot sauce and crushed red peppers.

Ok, I question the IQ of anyone that says you can't taste black olives on a pizza. Mushrooms I can see because they can be bland but black olives are another story.

How do you live?

I enjoy sausage and pepperoni, and LOTS of sauce. Remember, a pizza is only as good as its sauce.

Do you not question the IQ of someone that wants to order and pay for toppings that cannot be tasted?

You weren't the one I was having pizza with. The person I was having pizza with wanted to order two toppings that she promised me I wouldn't be able to taste...
