What Is the Most-Hated Pizza Topping?
There are plenty of upscale pizzerias that pop smoked oysters, goat cheese and truffle oil on their pies, and many of us are happy to try them. Universally though, there is one pizza topping that is so despised that it makes you wonder how it ever even made it to a crust and why it still exists on menus – anchovies. Running close behind the little hairy fish is eggplant, then artichokes, broccoli and one of the most polarizing toppers: pineapple.
