Why do some people always have ketchup with their pizza? Pizza already has a layer of sauce on it which tastes pretty similar.

My friend does this and when I asked him about it, he says ketchup is different from the tomato sauce. I guess it's a cold/hot thing? *shrug*

I have NEVER personally witnessed this, nor have I ever even heard of such a barbaric practice, and for this I am grateful.

Is this a Canadian thing, like using moose piss intead of milk on your corn flakes?

My friend grew up in Canadia - I don't know about moose piss or what not and don't want to know.

Surprise him with some for breakfast on his birthday!

I don't understand why people would put ketchup on a pizza. I know one person who does this, but he claims everyone in his country eats pizza with ketchup (he's an international student).

No. Ketchup is the poor man's tomato/sphagetti sauce. I know someone who used to use ketchup on noodles...*shudders*

This thread reminds me of the last scene in Goodfellas when Ray Liotta's character is in the witness-protection program somwhere in the midwest.

His comment was somthing like: "I ordered linguini marinara from the local Italian restaurant but they sent me egg-noodles & ketchup" :p

I worked in a pizza restaurant for 20 years & 8 days. At one point, I concurrently worked at a 2nd pizza place (for a few months). I returned and worked 80-something more hours during 1 week at that pizza place.

It was calculated that the number of slices of pizza I had either made or served was well over one million.

I *NEVER* had a customer request ketchup for their pizza.
Blue cheese: common
Ranch dressing: fairly common
hot peppers to just put on top of the cooked pizza: fairly common

ketchup: NEVER

cold, raw mushrooms: rarely (on cooked pizza. Wanting it as a topping, regularly, of course.) In fact, I kinda liked just putting the cold mushrooms straight from the can on top of pizza just out of the oven.

So, consider than several 10's of thousands of votes for "no." (A lot of repeat customers :p )

Anyone who answered "yes" to your poll is just goofing around. (Well, either that or they're exceptionally weird.)
