Of course, pizza can come with tons of different toppings. Meat toppings are common and popular, but lots of people also like vegetables on their pizza. This might often include green or black olives, mushrooms, onions, and peppers. Do you like these toppings on your pizza? Personally I don't. Some of them I don't like at all. For example, I won't green olives, onions, or peppers on anything ever. But I do like mushrooms and black olives, I just don't like them on pizza. So how about you?

Cabbage, now that's different, I've never heard or thought about that before. I like fried cabbage so I would probably try that. My friend in Ohio tells me they make pizza with a mashed potatoe topping. One of my uncles adds peanut butter to his pizza, but then he adds peanut butter to EVERYTHING. Lol. I guess there's not limit to what one could use as a topping, it's all up to what you like. :D

peanut butter! lol :D i can't imagine how it would taste like ;) anyway, the pizza with the cabbage topping was patterned after a famous snack in our country -- "shawarma", so it also has beef and onions in it ;)

I don't either. I don't even care for stuff like pineapple. When it comes to pizza, I am diffenately a carnivore. I love a pan pizza, Meatlovers, from Pizza Hut. I love different types of meats and cheeses all over a pizza. Oh great, now I am craving pizza.

Yeah, I don't like doing just plain cheese either though. I can eat it, if I needed to, but if I have the choice, I gotta have some sort of meat, at least pepperoni.

Yeah I don't like pineapple pizza either. I prefer meat pizza to veggie pizza for sure, but my favorite really is just plain cheese. Sausage or Canadian bacon are good, too, though. I'm just not a big pepperoni fan. I will eat it though. Haha sorry to make you crave pizza!

I do, and I love mushrooms a lot. Noting like having a cheese topping covered with lettuce, tomato, cucumber and mushrooms. I just love the combination.

Mushrooms are one of the few toppings I will eat on pizza, though plain cheese is still my favorite. I have never heard of cucumbers on a pizza before, although I suppose that makes sense.

I like my pizza with nothing but extra extra cheese. :D Not that I haven't eaten pizza with other toppings before. I cannot eat pizza with green peppers or any other color peppers, I just can't. I do like mushrooms and spinich on pizza, and even broccoli is good as long as it's not big pieces, because broccoli and cheese tastes good to me. I think the strangest thing I've had on pizza is pineapple, FRUIT on PIZZA Lol, it was a hawaiian pizza. Very different. The worst thing was anchovies...:X

I prefer just cheese too! Pineapple is definitely weird on pizza... not a combination I like. I don't want anchovies, either. I don't even like fish in the first place, but certainly not on a pizza.

Hi anna, I rarely eat pizza but when I do it is from the wood ovens and very good. I prefer my olives on the side rather than atop the pizza but I always have onions as could not imagine a pizza without them, usually mushrooms as well. Quite often the pizzas have aubergine slices on them but as I so rarely have it I always order the same thing, pepperoini, onions and mushrooms.

I've never tried green or black olives on pizza, but I like tomatoes, onions and chili peppers. The way pizza is prepared mixes all the flavors and sometimes I just don't realize all the ingredients on it. My mom usually prepares pizza on weekends and she uses a lot of ingredients, always meat or chicken and all the vegies she can find in the fridge, since my brothers and I aren't lovers of salad or vegies, so I'm kind of use to vegies in pizzas.

I actually prefer my pizza with vegetables. I love fried eggplant pizza. It is delicious! Also, enjoy mushrooms, onion, peppers, tomatoes, and black olives. Some pizza parlors by me also have pasta pizza, which my daughter enjoys.

Hmm eggplant pizza? I've never had it or heard of it... I have heard of pasta pizza but never had it. I like pizza and I like pasta, so I suppose it could be something I would like, but it just seems sort of odd to me. I'd try it though.

Only if there is also meat toppings. I don't like vegetarian pizza because they substitute pepperoni with tomato slices

Yes, I do. I'll take a pizza with vegetable and cheese over a meaty pizza with any day. Although, the meaty pizzas do taste good; I just rather not eat it all the time. I like pineapple pizza as well, it's so juicy and moist.

Pineapple seems to be popular as a pizza topping, but I don't really go for it myself. I like pineapple in other things (like smoothies!) but I don't like it on pizza because I don't like the combination of something so sweet with the more salty or savory flavor of a pizza. But I'm boring and like plain cheese the best!

I like to have some vegetables on a pizza. I wouldn't like a Carnivore's pizza with just only meat. I do like to have some olives, onions, mushrooms, and some green bell peppers. I don't like the Jalapeno peppers that much on my pizza.
