The same country that eats desert for breakfast, and whatever the monstrosity they call "gravy" is with rolls?

How odd.

I've literally never in my life had anyone think sweet corn was weird on pizza until now.

I wanted to believe you were wrong, but according to this list, it's apparently the #11 topping.

https://www.tastingtable.com/1345777/pizza-toppings-ranked-worst-best/

But it also has pineapples as #2 and honey at #7 so I guess I just don't know what people actually like.

And LOBSTER at #15? Is this an opinion piece or facts?

Whoa, clam pizza is pretty strange.

For some weird reason I dont find baked beans on pizza too bizarre. Probably because of beans on toast? I remember eating a breakfast pizza earlier this year, dont think it had baked beans though. Just scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage and something I cant remember clearly

The stereotype of British food being shot has been out of date longer than anybody on this forum has been alive.

Also, America is shit at food.

It's one example of gravy and it's delicious.

Americans aren't running around believing there are no other gravies. Do you believe there is only one soup? Or one pizza?

And yet Brits on the Internet freak out about any foreign food that is spicier than a toast sandwich, proud of their culinary ignorance and limited tastes. To be fair, plenty of Americans are the same.

Corn on the right pizza could be cool.

But I have to check one important thing. TC, when you have pizza, you're typically eating slices (as in, triangles that you hold with your hands), not some other shape that you're cutting up and eating forkfuls, right? Because that is the standard and correct way to be eating pizza most of the time. Other styles are welcome as occasional alternatives, but it is wrong to consider anything else as default.

Personally, Im a Brit that likes a bit of spice.
