Let’s try not to yuck each others yum, even the absolute heathens who like a BBQ sauce base.
bonshui@reddit
Rocket, parmesan and black olives
Adventurous_Deal2788@reddit
Chicken tikka, mushroom, pepper, onion, jalapeno on half and olives on the other
RaveyDave666@reddit
Ham and pineapple on a bbq base 🤤
Radiant-Prize-3722@reddit
Pineapple & jalapeño
Confident-Leather871@reddit
Pepperoni crispy bacon and jalapenos
Queen_Moose88@reddit
4 cheeses. I don't care which cheeses, just more of them!
Minimum-Bad-6472@reddit
Goats cheese works well
sparklybeast@reddit
I would agree but I’ve had cottage cheese be one of the four before - that was not good.
Minimum-Bad-6472@reddit
Ive never had bbq base it sounds lovely
Anyways my fav toppings are
Meat: tandoori chicken,chicken tikka,spicy beef and pepperoni
Vegetarian: crispy onion,peppers,pineapple, garlic and jalapenos
This isnt even counting all the bloody sauces omg
Stealth_bummer_@reddit
I have two faves and they are both pretty controversial. 1. Already mentioned but pineapple, pepperoni and jalapeno. Spicy/sweet/salty/lovely. 2. Tuna- the best one, try it then come for me.
hdhxuxufxufufiffif@reddit
Pineapple, pepperoni and jalapeño is great.
Re: pineapple, not liking it is fine but I find it tiresome when people turn it into a point of principle and act like it's sacrilege.
WorcsBloke@reddit
You and me both. Seriously, I wouldn't order pineapple on a pizza in Naples... but I'm not in Naples, am I? Food snobbery is so tedious. I was delighted the other day to talk to an actual Italian who loved a cappuccino after lunch. They exist!
Minimum-Bad-6472@reddit
Id keep pineapple on me to add myself
DeadBallDescendant@reddit
God, yes.
Minimum-Bad-6472@reddit
Omg yes im also a pineapple,jalapeno and pepperoni fan its so fudging good bruv like oh my days
captain_crackerjack@reddit
Are you me?
Stealth_bummer_@reddit
….. Yes
Ornery-Vehicle-2458@reddit
And I am, too.
Anchovies rule. As do Capers.
Honorable Mention; Jalapen̈os.
elpulls@reddit
Pineapple, pepperoni and jalapeño is incred- sounds rouge but sprinkle some tajin on top or marinate the pineapple in it- takes it to the next level
Stealth_bummer_@reddit
I like your style
ooooomikeooooo@reddit
Your first is my favourite as well. It's the best combo.
I hated the idea of tuna in pizza but last year on holiday someone had a tuna pizza and let me have a slice. It was great. A revelation.
One of my most surprising was how good anchovies are. I love a tuna mayo with anchovies sandwich. I've never tried it as a combo on pizza but I'm sure it would work.
Pengetalia@reddit
Love anchovies on pizza. That salty goodness 👌🏼
Majestic-Camel2927@reddit
Tuna is crazy
Playful_Echidna_3465@reddit
I used to think it was disgusting, but in Sicily I had a tuna, spring onion and some herbs combo.
I think it’s the best pizza I’ve ever had.
Stealth_bummer_@reddit
Margarita al tonno, bellissimo!
NoFewSatan@reddit
Margherita*
Stealth_bummer_@reddit
Try it
jenzfin@reddit

hsw77@reddit
Tuna and pepperoni. It's a magical combo.
Lazy-Limit-8684@reddit (OP)
Omg your number 1 is literally my all time favourite order (for dirty pizza) we call it the traffic light. It’s the perfect pizza I swear.
GrabbedByTheGhost@reddit
Extra cheese with anchovies and some tobacco sauce.
CadianGrunt8675309@reddit
Serrano ham, olives, artichoke hearts, some sort of either garlic oil or vinaigrette
Zestyclose-Park-7493@reddit
Slices of garlic is an under rated topping
TazTazTAZTazTaz_@reddit

buttersnapsghee@reddit

Odd-Leopard4388@reddit
Nothing quite like a kebab meat pizza from a 1 star hygiene rating kebab shop

tobyc97@reddit

sharpied79@reddit
Peanut butter...
Lazy-Limit-8684@reddit (OP)
No…. You’re trolling… or is that a real thing?
sharpied79@reddit
It certainly was back when I was younger...
Give it a try sometime...
Lazy-Limit-8684@reddit (OP)
Yeah I will do. Do you put it on a margarita basically?
sharpied79@reddit
Yep, just plain old cheese and tomato pizza.
Can be a bit of a bugger to spread on so look for a "thinnish" peanut butter (some of the organic ones are quite good for this)
Lazy-Limit-8684@reddit (OP)
Such a bizarre combo but I can imagine it being nice, will defo give it a try
hdhxuxufxufufiffif@reddit
Never tried it but I'm thinking about it now and honestly peanut butter spread on a cold slice of last night's pepperoni with a drizzle of Chinese chilli oil could be an excellent breakfast.
lk910@reddit
I was always the pepperoni/meat feast type, but there's a place near me that does a pizza with pesto, chicken, spinach, mushrooms and a garlic butter crust. I rarely order anything else now.
EducationalTourist55@reddit
Pepperoni doner meat jalapeños
duginsdeaddaughter@reddit
Mushroom, Onion, Fresh chilli, Basil is all I will ever need
sheepandlambs@reddit
Donner and onions is a classic.
When I lived in Austria a place I frequented did tuna, prawn, and mussel meat. I have never found a place in this country that does mussels.
ddmf@reddit
Bolognese is one that surprised me.
If it's a pizza hut deep pan it has to be pepperoni, chicken, pineapple, and jalapenos.
WiggyBallz@reddit
No way have you sat there and thought ‘yes, this is a great Reddit post, this is very interesting’
imalwayshungr@reddit
I am a dirty heathen who likes a bbq sauce base, HOWEVER I am typically a tomato sauce gal.
For toppings - Asda make your own pizzas used to do the most amazing 'steak' pieces, and their chilli beef is spot on.
Steak OR chilli beef, pepperoni, jalapeños/fresh green chilli, sweetcorn, and mozzarella slices. 😍
BRB. Going to Asda!
Lazy-Limit-8684@reddit (OP)
I’ve been hearing good things about Asda make your own pizza! I’ll have to try it.
imalwayshungr@reddit
Top tip: if you want something like sweetcorn, add frozen/tinned at home, instead of using it as one of your 4 topping choices. :D
AdStreet8083@reddit
Pepperoni, pineapple and jalapeños.
Yes, really. Come at me!
phatboi23@reddit
a local place does tika sauce instead of the normal tomato base.
it's absolutely SLAPS.
some cheese, chicken and sweetcorn?
i will absolutely demolish it :D
eselex@reddit
I’m a purist, no toppings!
hdhxuxufxufufiffif@reddit
That's called a pita bread.
phatboi23@reddit
this cracked me up hahahhaa
weatherwaxs_broom@reddit
BBQ as a base is degenerate behaviour 😂 Definitely needs veg to break up the grease. Pepperoni, onions, peppers, olives, spinach, spicy anything, loads of sauce. Now I want a pizza 😋
WraithOfEvaBraun@reddit
My go-to is red onion, mushrooms (double), pepperoni, green peppers, fresh tomato and pineapple (sorry not sorry 😆)
Lazy-Limit-8684@reddit (OP)
Pineapple on pizza is great I don’t care what anyone says. Burst of sweet and sour against salty toppings is PHENOMENAL
WraithOfEvaBraun@reddit
Absolutely! My pizza place missed it off the time before last and it just changed the overall taste so much I only managed two slices lol
I've always liked cheese and pineapple together though so it figures! Love it in sweet and sour sauce and a Honolulu chicken my mum used to make...funnily enough I can't stand the stuff alone or in a dessert, only savories but yes you described it to a T! 😋
Harrry-Otter@reddit
Fennel sausage and friarelli.
Kaurblimey@reddit
Mushroom
BusyBeeBridgette@reddit
Anchovy & Pepperoni. Salad cream, or blue cheese, dip.
Lazy-Limit-8684@reddit (OP)
Salad cream as a pizza dip is quite a maverick move. Might have to try that
BusyBeeBridgette@reddit
What can I say? I live on the edge.
GothMoth8442@reddit
Sweetcorn, olives, mushroom, pineapple, mozzarella
PeaceOrchid@reddit
Pepperoni, jalapeños, black olives, sweetcorn and pineapple. I said what I said.
KeepOnTrippinOn@reddit
Chicken and sweetcorn, or just a good veggie one with red onions, peppers, mushrooms, sweetcorn and olives.
QueenFreek@reddit
Sweetcorn, Peppers and Red Onion. I sometimes have stuff like pepperoni or n'duja instead if i'm feeling something a bit more meaty though.
QueenFreek@reddit
My favourite pizza of all time though was from a takeaway in York that did Broccoli and Garlic. 10/10
fistmcbeefpunch@reddit
I like a nice simple pizza. Fresh mozzarella and basil. Maybe a single meat
CulturedPhilistine@reddit
I prefer a veggie heavy pizza:

Own-Dragonfly-942@reddit
My go to for Domino's is sausage and mini hot dogs. My go to for frozen tesco cheating is meat feast with stuffed cheese crust on bbq sauce base.
charlierc@reddit
When I was younger it was ham and mushrooms. Nowadays I have pepperoni and jalapeno (or at least chilli pepper) as my first choice, though I don't mind spinach and ricotta as another option
Alix_T_1865@reddit
ham and mushrooms!
sparklybeast@reddit
Prosciutto, mushroom & garlic. Or nduja and goats cheese.

Rowdy_Roddy_2022@reddit
Pepperoni as long as it's not too spicy.
KoorbB@reddit
Anything meat and chilli based. Perfection.
Dabonthebees420@reddit

Bacon, pepperoni, mushrooms and jalapenos
manual_typewriter@reddit
Green pesto sauce, tuna and spinach.
Pocket_Aces1@reddit
Together or just my favourite? I'll take basically any topping but
Anything that will crisp nicely is a benefit. Have to limit the "fresh" toppings unless prepped otherwise to minimise water content ontop. But you can get some decent pizzas if you know how to cook them
newbornunicorn25@reddit
Pineapple, red chilli and salami/pepperoni
tobyc97@reddit
salami and chilli honey
