Changing Pizza Trends

Pizza has long been a beloved cuisine in American culture. Pizza has become a fixture on the American menu and table, competing with all-time greats such as hamburgers and hotdogs. However, since its demise as a beloved cuisine in the United States, pizza has come a long way in terms of what is considered fantastic toppings and what is considered just plain strange. Some new trends in the preparation and topping of pizza have emerged. Foods that are popular as toppings now would have been rejected as ludicrous in the 1960s.

Tastes in America have shifted during the last several decades. While many pizza enthusiasts favor classic pizza types and toppings such as pepperoni, sausage, onions, peppers, mushrooms, and olives, new pizza aficionados like experimenting with non-traditional pizza toppings in an attempt to uncover pizza topping excellence. Toppings like chicken, ham, pineapple, and ground beef are examples of novel toppings that are not so radical that the classic pizza lover cannot get beyond them. However, certain toppings have completely insulted the sensibilities of the typical pizza aficionado.

The fact that the great individuals of the gourmet foods sector have come to take part in the pizza industry, helping to make it their own, is one of the factors that has totally changed the new wave of pizza traditions in this industry. Pizza is no longer only for Super Bowl parties, kids' birthday parties, or a late-night fix when a busy business lady arrives home exhausted from work and doesn't want to cook. It has attracted the attention of society's elite in the gourmet food circuit.

Fine dining and gourmet restaurants are increasingly offering their own distinct touch to the making of pizza. The gourmet food sector adds flare to pizza by giving daring topping options and allowing creativity and taste to shine. While some may argue that the toppings they select are silly, and some of the more adventurous topping ideas may be, some of the new pizza trends are definitely taking traction with the more affluent class. Seafood toppings, such as oysters and crayfish, are among the new additions. Game meats such as venison and duck have also been attempted as novel toppings. Toppings like peanut butter and jelly and bacon and eggs are even more bizarre.

While most pizza enthusiasts are unlikely to try mashed potato pizza, many are taking the risk and tasting the new toppings that the refurbished pizza business has to offer. Whatever your favorite toppings are, everyone in America agrees on one thing: pizza is difficult to live without.
