Truly, I thought, there is no other person more suited to chat about the art of pizza than Scott Wiener. First, I was really curious to know his thoughts about why pizza has us all in such a chokehold. In 2016, the Picky Eater Bloganalyzedthe most popular cuisines and meal types in the world based on Instagram tags. The first place, naturally, went to Italy and the pizza.“Pizzais the great equalizer,” Scott Wiener tells us. “Everyone has access to it and it’s a food that adapts to any cuisine or cultural tradition. It’s also a really fun low-stakes high-passion conversation topic. We can argue about it all day without ruining a friendship.”

Another great thing about pizza is that it’s the perfectcomfort food. “Pizza’s also that food we attach to important celebratory moments all the way back to childhood,” Scott tells us. “It’s a comfort food that’s nostalgic but also perfectly acceptable in just about any social setting.

“One of pizza’s strongest characteristics is the fact that there isn’t a single agreed-upon recipe for it,” Scott says. “Its boundaries are loose so we can customize it however we want while still making what we call “pizza.” Not manyfoods[are] like that!”

Wiener founded Scott’s Pizza Tours in 2008, but he has been a fan of pizza long before that. During his many years as a pizza expert, he’s seen many a weird pizza topping. “I’ve had SO many weird pizzas,” he tells Bored Panda. “I often judge the non-traditional category at the International Pizza Expo in Las Vegas and there are wild topping combinations there. I’ve had peanut butter, elk, alligator, seaweed, and even edible flowers on a pizza.”

Scott was also a host for the YouTube seriesReally Dough?He took on the role of a pizza enthusiast while his co-host Marc Lacono was the pizza purist. “[It was] all about weird pizzas,” Scott tells us. “I ate a ramen pizza, a 24-karat gold pizza, and a pizza donut.”

Okay, Pandas, I’ll admit this with my whole chest: I like pineapple on pizza. There, I said it! I like sweet and savory mixed together, okay? Sue me. I know many people consider this a crime against pizza, but isn’t it time we retire these old stereotypes? Sure, they can inspire some comedy gems likethis Jon Stewart rant, but, ultimately, we should let people enjoy what they like, right?

A few years ago, there was also an interesting debate going on online about whether pizza is a healthier breakfast than cereal. In 2018, Nutritionist Chelsea Amer concluded that a slice of pizza can be more nutritious than your favorite sugary cereal.“There’s more protein and fat to balance out the refined carbohydrate crust. Your blood sugar won’t spike and then crash in the same fashion as it would with a sugary bowl of cereal, which will leave you [feeling] full and satisfied for a longer period of time,“she wrote.

However, that doesn’t mean that you should reach for pizza every morning instead. Not all pizzas are equal, just as not all cereals are the same. “A cereal made with whole grains, nuts or seeds, and fruit with organic grass-fed milk or plant-based milk is a better choice over a grease-laden pizza made with processed meat like pepperoni on a white flour crust,” Cynthia Sass MPH, RDtold Delish.
