Here's a curious discussion I'd like to propose. Pizzas ALWAYS have tomatoe sauce, right? Well, here in Brazil, only the state I live in - in which a massive ammount of italian immigrants and further generations live - pizza is done the traditional italian way. With tomatoe sauce, on a proper log oven (not propane or electric), with the proper dough...

Now, if you eat a pizza OUTSIDE this state (São Paulo), you'll get a thin, crappy pizza with NO sauce on it, cheese directly into the dough, on electric ovens, and get this... people smear ketchup, mustard and even mayonase on it. If you do that here, where I live, people will think you are some sort of lunatic (or an outsider). It is even considered bad etiquette on some pizza places around here, to ask for ketchup.

So, my question is, HOW are pizzas prepared where you live, and do you commit the CRIME of putting ketchup, or... God forbid, mayonase on it??
