What’s missing?
I’m seeing dough, sauce and cheese.
Isn’t that the three?

I’d rather have pineapple on pizza than tomato slices.

Meanwhile in Italy:
P.S. I would respect you more if you put pineapple on the pizza as it is at least a vegetable unlike tomatoes. BBQ Sauce is for the meats!

The pineapple debate doesn't interest me. Pizza is too important a dish to squabble over toppings. A house divided can not stand.

Tomato's didn't originally come from Italy or that continent either. They showed up long after authentic Italian pizza was first created.

I eat that all the time sans tomatoes...leave it to Girl Cheese over here to eat lectins as well.If BBQ Pizza is real pizza, despite not having one pillar of the holy trinity, then so is this...
"The proof is in the enjoyment!"
Don't you see what you sound like? What you've become?
Christ...fucking lectin eater...explains your commoner origins.
I guess then it becomes a question of which bbq. Lexington style yes it is pizza, Eastern style no it is not pizza.

No. No BBQ is allowed.
If you went into a Pizza Parlor and they decorated it with one of the pillars of pizza, you'd see more symbols of red tomato than you would of bread or cheese. While all 3 are important, red tomato sauce is the most vital.
This thread is officially closed. Not enough deep thinkers here to support it.

To quote your tag, it's a parody of actual pizza.

I like the lightness of a true Italian pizza don't get me wrong. But if you want a hearty pizza that will give you a heart attack but fill you up, You eat American pizza with all the meats and the cheese and tomato sauce. Chicago style is a little much I will give you that.

You can put more than tomato and mozzarella in an italian pizza, you don't need all the grease and questionable cheese and meat and shit.
An average pizza place has a 4 page menu of pizzas...
When i was younger my usual pizza was margherita + ham + sliced boiled eggs + sliced wurstel - fries - black olives, around 33 to 35 cm of diameter.
Normal people wasn't even able to eat half of it and it still felt completely different from an american pizza.

Indeed. Authentic/historic pizza is dough, cheese, olive oil and some flavoring/topping that can be sweet (like fruit) or salty (like fish)

if I go for actual Italian pizza I go for Mozzarella and fresh Tomatoes, or sometimes just a Margherita.
if I want something more out there I go for Salami, hot peppers, garlic and onions... but it's hard to find Pizzarias that have the right peppers... I got one relatively close tho thankfully.
as for BBQ pizza... nahhhh, that's just an insult to pizza. the only meat that goes on Pizza is Salami or Prosciutto! anything else is heresy

I've never been a picky eater, but I’ll never understand why people willingly put vegetables on a pizza. Just give me some sauce (obviously, you need that) and load it up with all the meat
At the office, we eat pizza pretty often, and the number of picky eaters is ridiculous. And don’t even get me started on the slow eaters. Those tiny bites every 15 minutes? Just finish the damn slice already.
Double meat, no nonsense. That’s all I need.

If you start with a pizza base and add a topping it becomes a pizza, i.e. if I melt a toblerone on it its a toblerone pizza, or if I shit on a pizza base its a shit pizza (incidentally they look pretty similar)
If you put the basic toppings of a pizza on a toast it becomes cheese and tomato on toast.
Ergo, pizza is defined by the base its formed on.
However, I used to use pitta bread as a base in my pizza oven. I would still argue that it was a pizza, even though that makes my opening statement re: the legitimecy of attaining pizza status redundant.
Conclusion: I'm really not sure.

Hmmm… good point - toast, which can be extended to pizza bases, bagels, rice cakes etc. – are all merely part of a family of edible rafts for the toppings they carry en route to the digestive tract of the consumer.
Pizza by definition will need said ‘raft’ (unless it’s a pizza pie of course in which case the raft is replaced by a vessel). The soup vessel - or ‘bowl’ as some people call it - is of course inedible, however if the soup was served in an edible vessel we are edging closes to what could sit within the definition of a pizza, albeit not wholly.

- Thick doughy crust, pan pizzas or crusty greasy square Detroit style
- Lots of meat
- Any veggies limited to onions, black olives and hot peppers
- Pineapple is ok if you want to make a Hawaiian style pie
- Tell the pizza place to add in free sprinkles of oregano, garlic or herbs
- Dipping sauces are optional
- Never understood the point of making a pizza if it's just crust, sauce and cheese. Put some toppings on it
