| Which pizza topping on a first date? And does it expose the type of person you really are?

in Canada it is all about bacon.
Yes I know. I have some Canadian friends who are absolutely obsessed with bacon. They're always talking about it. Bacon this, bacon that, making bacon. Which reminds me, I must ask for that recipe.
Australia's national pizza is called the Aussie. It's comprises steak, eggs, chips, chops, rissoles, tomatoes, baked beans and of course cheese and bacon. It's delicious, and very filling!
In 1999, Australia Post's Philately Bureau actually bought out a special set of commemorative stamps featuring iconic Australian foods like the Aussie Pizza, the Aussie Burger, The Aussie Meat Pie and Tomato Sauce and The Queensland Pie Floater, etc. It was very popular and was reprinted a record eleven times. I bought 10 sets myself and sent them to foreign friends for Christmas. They loved them.
I liked your take on pizza and the free for all that ensued.
Yes, that's all water under the bridge now. Just about everyone is now out of hospital, or on parole. It's almost like it never happened. My home detention electronic anklet comes off next week so I'm looking forward to meeting someone on POF and doing a bit of socialising, if you catch my drift (cough, wink).
...watch for sharks.
And well you might say! They've been particularly bad and especially hungry in Sydney Harbour this year. The scientists say it's something to do with global warming and the extra cold Sydney weather over the last two months.
Even the Sydney to Manly Ferry has banned people with young children from standing on the outside decks after one or two nasty incidents earlier in Autumn.
Anyway, as you say, have a happy Summer...and look out for those Leopard Seals! | |

Australia's national pizza is NOT the Aussie...sheesh! I think we're a bit more cosmopolitan than that.

A bloke just has to mention The Classic Aussie Pizza, beloved by millions of true blue dinky-di Aussies everywhere, and suddenly all the chardonnay-swilling, latte-loving snobs within a thousand miles of cooee pop out of the woodwork and come down on him like a ton a bricks.
I say, if you don't like Australia go back to New Zealand or Tasmania or whatever foreign hellhole you came from. | |

Posted: 7/27/2008 12:55:55 AM | I think Belligerent Colleague is most likely a judgmental person [known one like her before] and if she is choosing her friends/dates/partner on the basis of pizza topping then she best get a life. Do tell. Is she the one who initiated the topic?
Frankly it wouldn't even occur to me to 'read' someone based on their choice of topping. That surely can show only one aspect of a persons personality i.e. they are allergic to anchovies or they didn't feel like meat that day. | |

Posted: 7/27/2008 3:09:34 PM | Beau - what exactly is in your work's water cooler? Are you sure it's not vodka?
The best kind of pizza? Thin crust.....tomato and herb sauce....sundried roma tomatoes.....olives.......sprinkled with feta after cooking. And a bottle of something delicious....an open fire. Sounds perfect.
But then again.....Cheap Tuesday feeds the family for $20! (Guess that wouldn't be much of a date tho, with the kids all along.) | |

Posted: 7/28/2008 12:35:04 AM | Did someone say Vodka Pizza?
First there were Alco-pops, now there's Alco-Pizza... nice...
Vodka, Tomato and Tabasco vegetarian pizza
Vodka, oysters and Tabasco pizza
Bacardi, pineapple and ham pizza
Malibu, pineapple and chicken pizza
Drambuie, honey carrots and duck pizza (yum)
The trick would be to cook it without the blessed alcohol evaporating... is a pizza flambe` possible? Or cook it first and give it a splash of some divine juice just before serving?
Okay, first I'll have to name my first pizza joint (thinking... thinking...)
Drunk Pizza, or Drinkies Pizza, or Pizza Spirit, or Hangover Pizza...
Get Pissed on Pizza has a nice ring to it for an ad campaign slogan.
Man, I'm gonna be rich, I'm gonna be rich...

Posted: 8/19/2009 4:25:49 AM | Here's a tip about the timing of pizza ordering, for those considering a pizza date. Don't order at 2am!
My sister used to work at a pizza joint and around 2am, especially on a Saturday morning, they used to make 'drunk pizzas'. They were made from scraps of food that had fallen on the floor that were then dusted off and covered in cheese. I understand that no one ever complained.  | |
