Favorite pizza toppings

[Proletariat]

Let's hear 'em. My favorite go to is just plain cheese with tons and tons of crushed pepper, but when I'm feeling more exciting it's green olives and anchovies or black olives, sardines and red onion. The trouble is finding any dining company on the planet who will agree.

When I was in southern Italy last year, I had some pie that had a bunch of different vegetables on it, I think artichokes and black olives and maybe proscuitto or something for some meat. It was called some Italian word that began with a C and the guy I was eating with said it meant 'like when a little kid wants everything he sees' but I can't for my life remember what the word was. I do remember just about every bite, it's by far the best 'za I've had.

So what's your fav?

Pepperoni and Italian sausage for me. Chicken and Barbecue sauce is also good.

Not necessarily all of those on the same pizza, but any of these toppings are good:
Parma ham
Rucola
Salami
Meatballs
Mozarella
Pesto
Red Onions
Artichokes
Tuna
Spinach

And my best guess is that you are thinking of Calzone?

Aha, found it. I remember at the time thinking the pizza's name was similar to the english word capricious.

Pizza capricciosa (“capricious pizza”): mozzarella, tomato, mushrooms, artichokes, cooked ham, olives, oil (in Rome, prosciutto raw ham is used and half a hard-boiled egg is added);

My favourite pizza toppings include:

Beef
Jalopeno
pineaple
onions
cheese

Doesnt sound very Italian, but its hot,sweet and tasty at the same time.More traditional option for me would be:

Bolognese sauce
fresh or sun dried tomatoes
onions
cheese

Choose sparingly from artichoke, spinach, garlic, olives, pine nuts. That sort of stuff.

I'm not big on meat on pizzas. A few shreds of ham just isn't enough of an event.

BTW is it just me or do capers sound like they ought to be a kind of fish? And, what is the point of capers anyway?
