      One of Trenton NJ’s specialty pies is a mustard pizza. You won’t believe me but they’re actually good.

          Have you ever been to NJ? Literally the entire state is lousy with incredible local pizza joints. If you live in the state and order from a pizza chain, there is something wrong with you mentally.

          And yeah, there is a type of tomato pie that is specific to Trenton, and it is known for it around the rest of the state (and PA, and perhaps NY). Google “Trenton Tomato Pie.”

          Trenton is a shit city (NJ should do better for their capital city), but people often forget that it has an insanely rich history that goes back to the Revolutionary War. It’s more recent history (early 1900s) includes a ton of Italian immigrants.

          That said, I love mustard and I love pizza, but they don’t go together. That’s a travesty.

            The Golden Gate Bridge is held up by Trenton steel. The city definitely isn’t what it used to be but the food is still great

              Yeah it’s a bummer. I don’t know if it’s a corruption problem, or what, but it’s unfortunate that NJ can’t/hasn’t/won’t fix the city up. It’s still their state capital.

        Bottoms up in Richmond VA has one called the State Fair: Spicy brown mustard, sausage, caramelized onions and roasted red peppers.

        Years ago when I had it I remember it being surprisingly good.

          I’ve tried it on pepperoni pizza as that was the only way it made any sense whatsoever in my brain.

          It wasn’t gross or anything, it tasted exactly how I expected. Not for me.
