OH BOY! Pizza stones! Did you know I bought one just because of a discussion here about those?

THE PIZZA PLACE THAT I USED TO WORK AT USED THE DEEP DISH PAN FROM THAT COMPANY. THE ONLY BAD THING ABOUT THEM IS THE FIRST FEW TIMES YOU USE THEM THE PIZZA IS REALLY HARD TO GET OUT OF THE PAN EVEN THOUGH IT'S NON-STICK.

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??

My Gosh, that would probably get a person hung where I live...

Lots of sauce, lots of cheese, I'm getting hungry! They use propane mostly where I live, but there are 1 or 2 places that do Brick Oven with hot coals and such, which I guess is more traditional than gas. There's a place right down the street from where I live that's been there since 1991, and we go there once a week like clockwork!

A lot of places do make what's called a White Pizza, which is dough covered with olive oil and such, instead of red sauce. They then cover it with vegetables, mostly either spinach or broccoli.

Actually http://www.pizzahut.jp/ is the correct URL.

PIZA HATTO NO SÛPPA SHUPURIMMA! I love katakana english.

Most pizzas list mayonase as an ingredient... Hopefully there isn't a natto pizza (belive me you don't wanna know what that is).

Traditional pizzas don't always come with tomato sauce, but that is how most people think of them, since modern pizza is based upon recipes brought over by poor southern Italian immigrants. Most of those kinds of pizza were thin crust, with lots of tomato sauce; this is common with Sicilian style, which is quite heavy. Some Mediterranean pizzas use olive oil and garlic as a base; usually this is Greek style. I've also seen alfredo sauce pizza, but that is likely an American creation. Putting ketchup and mayo on pizza is disgusting, and I can't imagine why anyone would do that.

When I traveled to Germany, we got a pizza that was very thin, with no tomatoe sauce. It was just peperoni and cheese, and it was WAAY better than "normal" pizza with sauce.

GOD I wish I could grab every person in Rio de Janeiro and YELL them this sentence. I was working there for three months couple of years ago and I witnessed they doing it. And when I asked why didn't they just have tomatoe sauce on the pizza like FREAKING HUMAN BEINGS and stopped this ketchup insanity, they acted offended!

BTW never go to Rio. I mean it. *does his Sam Kinison impression* OOHHH!! OOHHH!! IT'S HELL ON EARTH!!

Every single wacky pizza you guys have mentioned in this thread makes me want to cry. A pizza must have cheese and tomato. End of story.
