Hmm... where are you? Here in Oregon, they put all sorts of things on
pizza. I've had goat cheese, artichoke hearts, capers, smoked chicken,
barbequed chicken as well as the 'usual' things (though I know 'some'
people who think pineapple on pizza is 'weird', which mystifies me
because I've eaten it that way since I can remember). To me pizza is a
flat bread topped with sauce, some meat and/or vegetables, and cheese.
Just about anything but the kitchen sink can go on pizza! (Of course, it
helps if it goes nice with rosemary!)
