I have actually had mayonnaise pizza in Japan, and it was actually pretty good.

Kewpie brand Japaneese mayo is pretty good. Not like you'd think for US Mayo.

But on pizza..well...heck in Japan  that's nothing new, they put Kewpie mayo on lots of things.

We have a BLT pizza here in town with bacon, lettuce and tomato and mayo for the sauce.  Quite tasty.

They also put corn and squid on their pizzas. Hell, I think one of them has squid ink instead of tomato sauce.

Paradise roll: sushi with toasted mayonnaise.  Splendid on a cold winter's day.

I've heard worse ideas

/actually, some of those sound pretty good

Mayo and corn are apparently common pizza toppings in Moldova. Mayo is one of the three things I will not ever eat, in addition to eggs and offal, but the corn was basically drained whole kernel canned stuff... and it was surprisingly good.

I can't wait for the opportunity to go back to Eastern Europe, dammit.

fish scales and corn are also popular toppings. slanty eyed freaks.

I think the canned corn thing is a holdover from the post-WWII era. In Japan, at least.

Shoot me in the face

Ghhaaa! The thought of eating mayonnaise makes me a little queasy.

Not as bad as half Canadian bacon and pineapple, half artichoke and pesto, light on the cheese. Anyway, how's your sex life?

Am I un-American if I admit that mayo and/or Miracle Whip both taste like wet snot and make me want to hurl?

Notabunny: Ghhaaa! The thought of eating mayonnaise makes me a little queasy.

I don't mind mayonnaise, I just can't stomach the thought of it hot.

It's cool, I dig eastern europe anyway.

Just the idea that I've accidentally been subjected to an aioli makes me york.  Sigh.

Mayo is bad enough, but on a pizza? Hell no.

Sounds like a pretty good pie to me. I also like Miracle Whip.

That's just a step too weird for me. I know, Mayo is relatively tame to some of the things that ends up in Japanese foods (i.e. Pit Viper Venom Ice Cream) but, no, it's just too strange. I'd eat the sea food pizza I've heard of, I might even try the squid ink ice cream.

But the only place for mayo is in the fridge for guests, nowhere near my pizza.

What are you talking about, subby? Miracle Whip is just brand name mayo.

Kewpie mayo is awesome. Once I discovered it, I can't go back to any of the American brands.

I think the corn on pizza thing is pretty much all of Asia. I had an American colleague when I was working in Vietnam who thought corn on pizza was great and would order all of his pizza with corn. I don't like the combo of corn on pizza, but seafood pizzas are pretty much the bomb.

It must be something from my childhood, but grandma would make salami and Miracle Whip. For some reason I still like MW with salami. Otherwise it's mustard, spicy please.

Dominos Japan has plenty of regular pizzas and some of them are actually edible. The only problem is that US-style pizza is ridiculously expensive; Dominos and Pizza Hut are $20 for a plain large and it only gets worse.

I was recently linked to an NY-style pizza place in Tokyo that charges $30+ for a plain large and up to $50 for many of their topped pizzas. It's a crime.

What's different and/or better about it?

Kewpie mayo on a seafood pizza would probably be pretty decent. Kraft or something would be terrible.

It's salad dressing for fark's sake!

With the exception of the shrimp pizza (hurk), I would nom every one of those. The first one just sounds like a giant potato skin, which is a good idea.

My favorite by-the-slice shop in San Diego makes one with buffalo sauce instead of marinara, chicken, mozzarella, and stripes of ranch drizzled on top. With fresh cilantro, sometimes.

It's just a lot more flavorful. It actually tastes like something.

The only things it should taste like are eggs, lemon and oil. Do they ramp up these flavors, or add something else.

Japanese put mayo on everything. They love that shiat.

You know what they put on French fries in Holland instead of ketchup?

Kewpie Mayo + fried bean sprouts = crazy delicious. yes, really. of course, I haven't had it since it was 12 since it's also about a zillion calories despite having bean sprouts. And, for that matter, this isnt the early 90s or earlier any more, the japanese shouldnt be eating mayo either. the days of petite japanese are long gone, hello large portions and junk food.

Hey, Dominos is the best of the chain pizza joints around here. Tasty homemade crust, toppings that look and taste fresh, and reasonably priced.

That said, I'd eat all of the above pizzas. We can't say much when people here put nasty anchovies on their pizzas.

/ also likes Miracle Whip

Old news is old.

You haven't lived until you've had The Italiano hot dog. Guac, tomato and mayo.

Have you ever seen Ramen Girl made me think they didn't like corn but guess I was wrong.

I'm a huge fan of mayo, but that looks barf-tastic.

Is there a hot dog in there? It doesn't look like there is one.

I used to put vanilla pudding in a mayonnaise jar and eat it in public.

STELLAAAAAA!

Mayo (Kewpie kind only!) and hard boiled egg pizza is delicious. Naysayers should feel sad that they're missing out on an interesting experience.

I've had corn, mayo, and potato pizza in Japan. It's actually pretty good.

Don't knock it till you try it.

Here's an article that does a better job of explaining just why it's so great. Apparently it's got rice vinegar and uses yuzu instead of lemon.
