    Originally pizza didn’t have tomato either, because it only grew was on a still undiscovered continent. Now you can’t but a pizza without. Things change.

      What did the original pizza look like then? Just bread and cheese? Or just bread? How far back are we counting? Originally pizza was just random wheat straws in a field?

      I’m being a little facetious. 😇

        The earliest record is flatbread with cheese and dates. But there has been all sorts. For a while, a common base layer was lard topped with herbs, then the cheese on top of that.

        Even now not all pizzas use a tomato base. And I’m not just talking about American pizzas that use barbeque sauce or something, pizza bianca (“white pizza”) is a style that will forgo tomato sauce for olive oil, lard, or bechamel sauce.

        If you think pineapple on pizza is controversial, I had a bechamel sauce and pear pizza in Naples. Kinda unusual.

          Sounds delicious! Obviously not the pizza we’re all used to but I’d love to try. Interesting history as well.
