Wouldn’t most pizza snobs say that Margherita is the most pure pizza? After all, this guy doesn’t actually like pizza, he’s just using it as a vehicle for all that extra cheese. Hell, pizza Marinara doesn’t have cheese at all and originally didn’t even have tomato sauce. Surely that’s even more pure? I guess I’m a pizza snob snob. /s
Also, It’s kind of a stupid opinion. It’s ignorant of some absolutely fantastic kinds of pizza like capricciosa, which is one of the most popular kinds of pizza in Italy. If the inventors of pizza say plenty of toppings are fine and even good, why be so prescriptive for everyone else? If OOP could expand their definition of pizza, they might even get to try the magnificence of pissaladière.
Most people I’ve seen making claims of what “real” pizza is tend to point at a traditional Napolese pizza, which is just basically a cheese pizza. They also tend to say that’s where pizza was invented, despite evidence that pizza has practically always existed since humans invented bread. Pretty much every single culture on Earth has some kind of flat bread+sauce+topping food.
which is just basically a cheese pizza.
it’s not even that, it’s fucking bread with a bit of cheese on it.
Gotta take one of the 2 slices where the fat slab of cheese was placed before someone else takes 'em.

So…bread?
Basically. Top it with olive oil, olives, and some anchovies for a traditional fisherman’s snack.
Add the toppings back in and boom, focaccia.
this guy has never been in a genuine swedish pizzeria run by a hardworking guy from the Levant. that’s true pizza.
you lost me at Swedish pizza, but masterfully bought me back into the fold with the Guy from the Levant.
Bravo, sir.
those guys have truly mastered the art of fusion cuisine. one place i used to frequent served a döner kebab four-cheese pan pizza with french fries on top.
then there’s of course the infamous Calskrove.
En kebabpizza med isbergssallad, pommes, färska tomater, färsk gurka och stark sås tack.
No, because it was BS … 😆
Kinda agree with the top post tbh.
I’ll have my cancer with olives, thank you.
Extra cancer please, yes I know it costs the same as an extra topping.
I bet he also prefers added sugar/syrup in the sauce, the dough and even the cheese.
