I dont mind sweetcorn on all pizzas, I'm pretty easy going that way.
But tonight my pizza reached a new low, GLACE cherries on a bacon pizza.
Sigh, those crazy koreans |

Did it "look" pretty? Koreans and Japanese like food that looks pretty. And I guess the bottom line is whether it SELLS. It pisses me off here how Pizza Hut tries to justify selling a pizza for 25,000 or 30,000 won by saying that it has 20 different toppings on it.
I don't think Koreans make their own pizzas at home. Pizza sauce is a scarce item in the supermarkets here. Home PLus & Emart don't sell it, but I found it at Wal-Mart. Buying foreign groceries in this country is a real challenge. Thank God there's Costco. |

I've seen that- dump a can of fruit salad on a pizza and call it "hawaiian"
The lowest I've had was the one with sweet pickles embedded in the pizza. Has me gagging a little at the memory |

Very few Korens have ovens. Even today. So, yeah. |

Have you tried the frozen pizzas that they sell in the store (not the snack bar)? Very thin crust, some American brand (can't recall the name, don't have the box anymore), toppings: tomato, cheese & herb. All I have to say is "Yum!!" I was very pleasantly surprised by how not-bad-for-frozen-pizza it tasted. Someone else bought it for me, called me to ask if they should get it, I took a chance and am very happy I did. I had her buy three (?) more next time, which I believe was less than 20,000 won. Again, very thin crust, so it's not particularly filling. Two slices for every one slice of a "normal size" pizza, I'd say.

Hahahaha...
As soon as I saw the subject of this thread I got all psyched for my "but once they put sweet pickles and maraschino cherries on my pizza" outcry. But apparently there is enough suffering to go around...
Do you think it's the soju that makes them like the sweet potatos so much? Actually, I know the real answer, but I like the soju theory better.
Next step: pizza flavored soju with sweet pickle-cherry salad anju.
Yum.
That all being said, the pumpkin/barley yogurt rocks. Try it if you see it. |

Wow, that's exactly what I had for dinner tonight. In fact, the whole freaking thing, minus two small pieces I let my husband eat. It's been one of my main pregnancy fall backs. The herb is basil. MMMMM..... If you're feeling particularly decadent, try it with tobasco and then some sour cream. Seriously good. |

| Wait till you stumble across a pizza made with ketchup for the tomato sauce. While it was red and was made from tomatoes, it bore no resemblence to pizza sauce. None. |

Neither do the Japanese, but lots of Japanese make pizzas at home with toaster ovens (so do I here in Korea). In Japan, you can buy ready-made pizza crusts in some supermarkets. When these are not available, they use slices of white bread. They call it "Pizza Toast" over there. You don't need a real conventional oven to make pizza (unless you're making the crust from scratch). Stop acting like you know everything. You're not even careful with your typing. Look at how you spelled "Koreans". |
