The 5 worst toppings for a pizza

Caviar

We have the world-renowned Chef, Wolfgang Puck to thank for this one. His signature pizza includes smoked salmon, along with crème fraiche and caviar, to name of few of the main ingredients. While I wouldn’t be to fond of smoked salmon on my pizza, it’s definitely not the one of the worst options. But for the sake of this slide, I’ll stick with caviar.

As someone who doesn’t eat caviar, I may be a bit biased with this one. Even so, I can’t help but feel like pizza is the last place a fish egg belongs.

Caviar alone has never appealed to me in appearance or in how it’s been described as tasting. It may look fancy and it may sound gourmet, but I’m willing to bet it wouldn’t be the most pleasant experience, especially not to the average pizza eater.

Aside from the taste and texture, a caviar-topped pizza just isn’t the most aesthetically pleasing food to look at. Caviar itself looks notoriously unappetizing and unappealing, and it’s for that reason alone that it would never step foot in my mouth. Pairing this with perhaps the most beautiful food creation on earth is just insanity of the highest order.

There are many ways in which seafood can be enjoyed. Some of the cooked and some of the uncooked variety. But when it comes to fish, I prefer it to be of the cooked and fully-hatched variety.

And save for a few exceptions (calamari-topped pizza being one), pizza and fish are two foods that are best kept far away from one another.
