When we were in Italy last year we went to a famous pizza parlor and tried several types of pizza. They were the worst pizza we ever had. When we told them of the variety of pizza we have back home including pinapple,meats etc. they could not believe it and said they are not pizzas, everyone for there own.

My Dad was in the Navy during WWII, I remember my Mom would only fix Spam when he wasn't home because he would not touch it.
I'm kind of the same way with meatloaf, because of too much bad meatloaf when I was in the Air Force.

We almost always make our own pizza's and have done so for many years including the dough. We have one almost every week. We like to experiment a little bit especially in the summer when we do them in the BBQ. Those usually get a pretty thin crust and don't take long to cook.
Most often this is what we have for toppings: Our own home made tomato based sauce with a little balsamic vinegar drizzled on, onions, mushrooms, sweet red or yellow or orange bell pepper, jalapeno pepper, black and/or green olive slices, bacon bits, pepperoni, sometimes a little pre-cooked ground beef, mozzarella cheese (lots).
Not opposed to pineapple on pizza but I like it much better just by itself and never out of a can.
Doesn't pizza cover almost all the required food groups (if beer or wine is included).

Hi R FUN,
Re: They were the worst pizza we ever had.
The worst that I ever had was about 20+ yrs ago in Brazil. They put mayonaisse, corn, beans, etc on them.
UGH!

(I get the corn and beans; but the mayonnaise??? )
When I think of Brazil, I certainly don't think of pizza.

If we go back to Hawaii, we are going to do food a bit differently. My other three trips, we covered all the "fine" dining places, but tried to stay away from "chain" restaurants. The four star hotels liked me a lot as well as a few other establishments.
I am a big fan of watching triple D. (Diners, Drive In's, and Dives). Guy does find the interesting places where the "locals" congregate. Have driven by many but only stopped at a few. Was never disappointed when we did though. We had some great wood fired pizza, great BBQ (Hawaiian style), and Loco Moco (with a burger on it--sorry, no spam this time). Cost wise--you can't beat it. Taste wise--does not get much better. Buzz's wharf (one of my favorite places on Maui) closed its doors a couple years back--so that is off the "locals" list now.
Better quit, or I will be on Expedia arranging another trip.

While you were in Maui, did you happen to try 'Mamma's Fish House' on the north shore. Pretty pricey but the food and service were amazing (to us). Others may feel differently. The seafood really is fresh caught every day. I can't remember the names of some of the other places we ate but we were at Mamma's 3 or 4 times.

Yes, we were there. My impressions were the same. We also did Roy's when he was in the shopping strip by Hilo Hatties. Have not been to the new place where he moved to NW Maui.
