The Toppings - This can make or break a pizza, so it's obviously most important

The Cheese - This can easily break a pizza. Too much cheese and the pizza is uneatable... unfortunately all pizza's in Germany puts extremely much cheese on the pizza, so I have started making my own pizzas instead of ordering pizza

The toppings determine whether I will touch any particular slice at all or not.
Acceptable toppings for me include:
meat and meat products
seafood
tomoatoes
mushrooms
some fish

Add anything else, like pineapples, onions, bell peppers or olives, and I will not touch it. Well, I might touch onions.

I can eat a pizza with thick crust or mediocre cheese if it has appropriate toppings, but not a pizza with pineapples and dried fish even if it has delicious thin crust and irresistably fragrant cheese.

To me, the most important part of the pizza is the crust. The crust is what everything is built on. However, a bad crust and be negated by a good sauce.

The part of a pizza that I look forward to the most, is the cheese.

Ontario says your avatar deal. Well you don't know any better. You DO live in a pizza wasteland Xorbon. Sorry to break it to you. Listen well now, during your life I charge you to go forth into the world to that place on the map on the east coast of the country just south of yours known as 'New York'. You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villany, you should be careful. There you will find, among the back streets and alley ways, amid the pimps, hookers and has beens, the truly greatest pizzas ever brought into this world. Welcome to Pizza heaven.


Do not become sidetracked by that other place, that dark place which offers some sort of goo in a flour bucket, a pizza pot pie of sorts, chicago. They have lived their illusions so long it seems natural to them. Besides that, they are all *******s. Go there not.

SAUCE FTW!!

It definatly the sauce which separates great pizza from good, average and sub-par pizza. Of the dominant chains I'd rank them as follows,

Papa Johns - good,
Pizza Hut - average,
Dominoes - sub-par

And 70% of that is the sauce, Dominoes uses undiluted tomato paste, Pizza Hut's uses a few spices and Papa Johns a few more. Their are also some improvements in crust and cheese quality as you go up the ladder. toppings are applied more generously but are still fundamentally the same in any chain. The sauce is the key and a truly great pizzeria will always be one which has the best sauce, the other three factors 'max out' much earlier at the 'good' pizza level leaving the sauce the deciding factor in the top tier pizzas separating good from great.

Well, the Papa Johns here sucks Blue balled Donkey Kong d!ck$, so they need to follow better directions


I am actually convinced now that Sauce is something I hadnt thought of as being pertinent to good pizza, but now agree, which doesnt bode well for franchise pizza style delivered sources

But thats fast food Pizza for ya, masas produced for mass delivery

Honestly, DiGorno is pretty well overall

I would never go to any "dark place which offers some sort of goo in a flour bucket". That sounds awful.

But, what about Chicago? I heard they have pizza in the form of a pie. How awesome is that?

Beer in the sauce. We have an idea trending, now.

Nuh unh, beer in the dough! At my first job, Orlando's Pizza, in Batavia, IL (not a Chicago style place, btw), we made our dough and let it sit for several days, so the yeast had time to do their thing. It came out crispy and flaky, like a cracker. One time I found a bag that had sat for five days. I popped it open, and literally almost passed out from the alcohol vapor I inhaled. We didn't give any to the customers but made a pie for ourselves with it and it was amazing. Their sauce wasn't that great (too garlicky for most people, but I loved it at the time).

I voted for sauce, but this comment made me think about it, and really, the best crust will make decent pie, but lousy crust can't be saved. Papa John's is just god awful.

I love cheese, but this is overkill.
