Fresh tomatoes whether it's grape, cherry, beefsteak, or roma add a nice juicy bite every once in a while

The underrated combos is where the gains are.

Anchovies with olives and capers.

We all know pineapple and Canadian bacon (can also be Spam).

Pepperoni and jalapeΓ±os.

Blue cheese, fig, and caramelized onion.

Pesto as the sauce under the cheese and fresh or sun dried tomatoes on top.

Is pepperoni and jalapeΓ±os not super common?

In the UK, that's called 'an american'

Not really. I've only seen it at a couple local type places. No large chain has it as a standard combination. TBH, that's kind of weird to peg that of all things as "an American" slice.

Figs have to be a top contender. I've never heard anyone suggest them, yet it's great. There's one place I go that serves with prosciutto, fig preserves, and a balsamic glaze.

Love them figs!

Pepperoni and jalapenos is my favorite but it is also the kryptonite to my usually indestructible digestive system. I get green peppers instead which is still very good but not the same.

Anchovies with olives and capers.

Salt, salt and salt? I'm on board, but I wonder how many other people would be.

Capers are pickled, so they bring the acid, along with the tomato sauce. The rest is major umami punch, but you go veeeery sparingly.
