My favorite bizarre pizza was one that we built at the restaurant where I worked for about two years. It was supposed to go to the local Taco Grunties place who had a habit of cheating us on food trades. We cut one of the cardboard circles into slices, placed it between layers of dough and then continued normally from there. We didn't trade food after that... But we were happy.

They are frozen as hard as you know what and taste like every other frozen pizza I've ever eaten...soggy cardboard covered with colored preservatives.

A really bizarre pizza has pineapple and Canadian bacon on it. It actually tastes GOOD and I understand it's a pretty popular thing in places like Hawaii. -- "Time flies... when you're asleep." ******************************************* From the bizarre fingers of Shelli Meyers UUCP: ...!harvard!bu-cs!sam ARPA: sam%bu-cs.csnet@csnet-relay.arpa *******************************************

You obviously never learned about the fine art of frozen-pizza-eating! You take the frozen pizza OFF the cardboard before cooking and eating it. The pizza (sic) itself is more like paste than cardboard. That is, unless you overcook it, in which case it's more like low-impact plastic. -- Steve Thiel ...ihnp4!ut-ngp!thiel Wer sie nicht kennte die Elemente, Ihre Kraft und Eigenschaft, Waere kein Meister ueber die Geister.

Yum! > >(Gag) Tombstone Pizzas have been available in Minnesota for years and years. I believe the name comes from the primary ingredient, which is reported to be thinly sliced headstones from some of the really ritz grave yards in central Iowa. The headstones (or crusts, as they are affectionately called) are sliced and then cut into a rough circle. They they are coated with a tomato sauce made from some of the finest red clay available anywhere in the world, and quick frozen for your supermarket.

But why do people eat it? You make ice cream sundaes out of pinapple, not pizzas! Do people put chocolate or marshmallow or nuts on pizzas? Of course not. One of the pizza places in Toronto once had FRUIT pizzas -- with the usual tomato sauce and cheese. Apparently they were popular amongst extremely intoxicated people. That's bizarre. (By the way, the best pizza on the planet is made by Science Fiction Pizza in Saskatoon.) Jim Tubman University of Waterloo
