Maybe I'm weird, but I *love* pineapple on pizza. One of my favorite pizzas
was: fresh spinach, sliced fresh tomato, fresh chunky garlic, pineapple
chunks, and black olive. Oh and mushrooms! I can't eat a pizza without
mushrooms. :~)

A clam and garlic pizza is excellent. It doesn't have a red sauce; it
doesn't even really *have* a sauce - other than like an herb butter. It's
basically garlic and clams on bread with a touch of parmesan. Think of
eating steamers in a garlic broth and then dipping a crusty bread into the
broth. Same thing, sort of, just a different way of serving it.
