| An excellent treatise on what has become a staple among American meals. I know what I'm having for dinner tonight - - well, maybe not the exact flavor, but my mouth is definitely watering for some pizza. Have you ever tried lobster chunks as a topping? Don't know if that strikes you as sacriligious or adventuresome, but I've had it, and man it is some kind of wonderful!! |

I love pizza, but it is strange that I can't eat too much of it. Two slices have already made me very full.
There is a local pizza shop in my area called Johnny Boy Pizza. My husband and I love Johnny Boy's special and the toppings consist of: Shrimps (in Aussie we say prawns, ham, pepperoni, black olives, onion, red peppers and pineapple pieces. |

Hmm, prawns or lobster would be interesting--though I have never tried it(so you never know if I'd find it too salty or whatnot). Not sacreligious:P But, questionable. Seafood cooks a bit differently than say pepperoni, so you have to probably bake it a lil more gingerly. Or make it a white pizza(mozz', swiss or provologne...maybe gyro style sauce).
Eww, Gwat! No olives! And, especially not with pineapple and shrimp! That sounds like too many diverse flavors together. Pizza has to have style. A common American deluxe pizza has many colors but a distinct flavor. Pineapple, pepperoni and shrimp all have distinct flavors...it sounds like a traffic jam:P Some things I just do not eat together. Now, pineapple and canadian bacon is okay. Or, again, a white sauce/base pizza with shrimp and pineapple might be okay. But, make sure they are popcorn shrimp(not jumbo).
Hey, Ellie:) I think I have heard of Alberto's! What is your definition of a white pizza? Personally, that is usually sacreligious:P As I am a devoted tomato sauce guy. But, I DID say I liked gyro style pizza--which is a first for me. Feta is rather chalky and salty, so you need a bland base to counter it. I suppose spinach would be interesting. But, I'd probably go with baby swiss and spinach instead with some zesty seasoning or some marinated/pickled cucumber bits thrown on after cooking(so you don't roast the cucumber). |

| Brainstormer, you should open a Pizza shop!! By the way, why has it to be Canadian bacon? What is wrong with the other bacon? |

| It's one distant dream of mine, Gwat. I was thinking I'd ask someone like you to open it with me;):P But, alas, you are taken. I'll still keep you in mind as a business partner. Just maybe not my sidekick:P |

I found the list of pizza places they mentioned as being the best in the USA on Oprah!
It was:
Ledo's Pizza(Maryland) since the 1950s...wood paneling, mirror walls, square pizzas...they use provologne instead of mozzarella.
Pizza Bianco(Phoenix, Arizona)...owner Chris Bianco...they do not use pepperoni(awh!:O)...Chris makes many of the pizzas himself every day...no take out, no delivery...6 specials including "WiseGuy", "Biancoverde" and "Margharita"...no special orders.
Mariella's Pizza(New York, across from Oprah magazine HQ)
Pizano's(Chicago, Illinois)for thin crust.
Due(Chicago) for deep dish.
Those are all the ones I remembered to write down. Not a great list. But a good one;P |
