I usually go with straight pepperoni, but when I’m at Matsos Family
Restaurant in Wooster, OH, I generally get their Hawaiian Punch pie.

You can put pineapple on pizza, and it is very good. But in no longer
pizza. It is something else. The same with artichokes and other whatnot.
No longer pizza.

Canadian Bacon and Sauerkraut (Happy Joe's Special) make an
tastey pizza topping.

There's no such definition or what can and connot be put on top.
According to various places:

Pizza: A dish made typically of flattened bread dough spread
with a savory mixture usually including tomatoes and
cheese and often other toppings and baked.

If it's a yeasted flatbread with sauce and toppings, it's a pizza.

You don't even need cheese ... thankfuly, since cheese is disgusting. :-p

A pizza without cheese is today recognized as one of the
three official authentic Neapolitan pizzas and is called
pizza marinara.

That's one of those that I don't mind, but I don't go out of my way to
each. The only topping I won't eat is onions. If those are on a pizza,
I just pass.

Back when the issue occasionally came up, I /never/ passed on a pizza,
no matter what it had on it.

In Germany in the mid-70s I "discovered" the "Pizzatasche", or "Pizza
Pocket". For a while, it was my favorite meal.

And the tomatoes are Gianni-come-latelies. Street pizza goes back to at
least to ancient Rome, but tomato is a New-World crop.

Yep. Europeans even considered tomatoes to be toxic when they were
first brought back from South America. Tomatoes are part of the deadly
nightshade family and tomato leaves are indeed poisoness ... brings a
whole new meaning to the "killer tomatoes" movie franchise. ;-)

Indeed, I had a great-great-grandmother who refused to eat tomatoes,
insisting that they were “poison”, and this was Brooklyn in the 1920s.

Never have figured out how bacon gets a nationality. I've had it both
in Canada and in California and didn't see much of a difference.

Guess it's like applying a nationality to soft drinks (eg. Canada Dry
as one of the better ginger ales)

It's to differentiate Canadian bacon from American bacon, which with our
usual cultural blindness we just call "bacon."

Canadian Bacon is back bacon. American Bacon is streaky rashers.

It should depend on where the pig was born and/or what passport(s) it has. ;-)
