Pineapple. Of all the people that hate it, I'm not convinced the majority have tried it (exceptions for those who hate pineapple on its own)

Edit: also it's best on white pizza

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 jalapeños.

Blue cheese, fig, and caramelized onion.

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

Feta. Sure, pizza tends to be already covered in cheese, but this is different cheese, and that is a good thing. I think it goes well with some of my other faves, such as green olives, pineapple, banana peppers.

Salami. It's like pepperoni, but different.

Alfredo sauce instead of tomato sauce, together with a few toppings like chicken and red onion, is heavenly, and doesn't seem to cause heartburn.

Try it before you judge me: pineapple, anchovies, a tad Tabasco. It's absolutely brilliant.

egg pizza

Arugula adds a sharp flavor that really pairs with cheese well. Might be controversial, but I'm a big fan of the salad pizzas. The best tend to be the house salads of romaine, red onion, tomato, and olives up ended atop a good thin crust pizza with plenty of sauce.

Edit: Oh!! If making an arugula salad pizza, I find it works best when paired with something incredibly salty, like anchovy, used very sparingly, some thinly sliced pecorino romano, and a drizzle of good balsamic (that thick shit, not the watery cheapo one). Throw some halved sweet cherry tomatoes on there and some thin sliced onions? Oh! One of my favorite meals after a night of drinking.

Palak paneer! Baltimore, queen of Indian Pizza. Someone on here mentioned feta -- try some squeaky paneer, instead! This gem really needs to be made elsewhere.

Chives, fresh or dry. It started as a joke when a buddy and I made the pizza from System of a Down's Chik N' Stu song and I've never gone back.

Fresh, they bring this green crispness that contrasts really well with the other ingredients. Dry chives burn a little in the baking process but in all the right ways, giving the whole pizza a deep smoky taste that feels amazing.

Crack, smack, and angel dust.

peanuts. don't knock it unless you've tried a chicken-peanut-curry-pineapple pizza

Pineapple, and yes, I will die on this hill!

Also, sundried tomatoes

Fresh corn is weird but gives a similar sweet juicy effect. I like corn+feta+chile peppers

Anchovy. It's a nice salty kick with a lot of umami

FETA CHEESE!

Sundried tomatoes. Goat cheese.

Don't know if it's underrated: margherita. Simple, delicious.

No one mentioned goat cheese+honey ? Maybe just an European thing !

I love cranberry and camembert pizza

Mushrooms

Roasted potatoes paired with chicken or beef and onion

Also pears, blue cheese, candied pecans, and balsamic glaze

I had pear slices on a pizza once expecting it to be kinda weird at best, and it was genuinely fantastic.

shallots!

Worst is tomato slices. Waaaayyyy too watery. It is like someone left your pizza out in the rain.

Pineapple and pepperoni, Prosciutto, Salami, Hot sauce/hot honey, Buffalo sauce/bbq sauce instead of pizza sauce

One of my favorites is bbq sauce, brisket, cheese and, hear me out, diced pickles

Caramelized Onions.

Not a topping, but underrated: ricotta instead of tomato sauce. So good!

Tapatio hot sauce (or Valentinos), Crystal hot sauce, garlic powder, salt, pepper, sriracha.

All on the same pizza.

I have to say I'm loving the pineapple renaissance.

I love pineapple, the sweetness goes great with other savory toppings.

I love artichoke hearts on my pizza but most places don't have that option. My favorite pizza is a pesto sauce with feta, artichoke hearts, fresh tomatoes, and maybe trace amounts of ham.

Sardines, olives, capers.

Fig jam. A local place makes a fig jam and bacon artisanal pizza that's to die for.

Roasted garlic. Everytime I go to Mod pizza I cannot forget the roasted garlic. And yes, I always get it with pineapple

I don’t know if you cancan call it underrated, but bacon and egg is the best pizza

My toppings of choice are olives, mushrooms, and pineapple.

I got one that is more cursed then underrated:

Mac and cheese pizza, but right before you eat a bite you pour a tiny bit of cola on it first.

Chives, fresh or dry. It started as a joke when a buddy and I made the pizza from System of a Down's Chik N' Stu song and I've never gone back.

Fresh, they bring this green crispness that contrasts really well with the other ingredients. Dry chives burn a little in the baking process but in all the right ways, giving the whole pizza a deep smoky taste that feels amazing.

Crack an egg on it

I had a really good pizza topped with stinging nettle once.

Here in Chicago we enjoy a thin crust with Italian beef and hot giardiniera.

My absolute favorite pizza is: white pizza (no red sauce), mozz of course, shrimp, bacon, spinach, and some fresh garlic, preferably sliced and roasted. All on a thin New Haven style crust. If you’re ever in New Haven and go to BAR, it will be an incredible pizza.

My personal favorite is pineapple, mushroom, and jalapeño. Sweet, savory, and a dash of spiciness. Then I’ll usually add some dried scotch bonnet flakes if I’m eating at home because I’m a fiend for spice and scotch bonnets are delicious
