Pizza is one of the greatest foods that you can eat. The customization that you can employ on them is limitless! You can choose to stuff your crust with different things, use different sauces or cheese, and even put different toppings on them. However, to paraphrase Jeff Goldblum’s character in Jurassic Park, just because you can put toppings on a pizza doesn’t mean that you should. There are certainly some unorthodox pizza toppings that have achieved notoriety over the years. We’ve assembled some of the weirdest ones below!
Chocolate
Believe it or not, there are a few brave souls out there who have added chocolate to their pizza! Some variations of this pizza dish leave out the sauce and cheese for a chocolate or nutella spread with little bars of chocolate on top. Other people put chocolate bars directly on the sauce and cheese for one of the oddest pairings we’ve seen! This seems more akin to a dessert rather than a full-on meal.
Crocodile
Can you take a guess as to where this pizza topping originated from? To spice things up, crocodile meat was introduced as a pizza topping in Australia! We can’t imagine that there are too many people out there who have eaten crocodile meat before, let alone on a pizza. There are a lot of meats out there that taste like chicken, and crocodile meat is one of them. The main difference is that it has a slight fishy flavor to it.
Grapes
This unorthodox pizza topping is offered as a part of an even weirder menu! It hails from a pizzeria in Brooklyn, New York, and is part of an even weirder menu with all kinds of crazy toppings. This one in particular is named for the late Alan Rickman, called the Severus Grape. There are a lot of fruits that you can put on pizza, but this one is by far the weirdest. Pineapple is definitely a close second, though!
