The Most Bizarre Pizza Toppings on Earth
The most bonkers pizza toppings in the world
If you’re into pizza, you’ll already have picked a team: Pizza Hut (established 1958) or Domino’s (1960). These are the big families in an industry that’s worth $46 billion per year in the U.S. alone. And despite efforts to objectively decide which pizza is better, you are what you eat. Your favorite pizza is literally in your blood.
But what about pizza toppings?
Cheese can be pretty vanilla. Sometimes — when you don’t have to share — it shakes things up a bit to go for the most random item on the menu.
NetCredit picked out pizzas that were unique or unusual and noted them down before isolating the five most unique from each chain.
Read on for the world's most over the top Domino's and Pizza Hut toppings:
Domino's
The following are the five weirdest toppings available at Domino's locations.

1. Tacorama, Norway

Weird Domino’s leads with the Tacorama, Norway’s answer to the question, “what would a Scandi American Mexican Italian dish look like?” Built with beef, jalapeños, grilled peppers, nachos and taco spice with hoops of simmering white sauce radiating from the center, this is the Benetton ad of pizza. And it gets better: the custom options are open, so you’re free to add Döner kebab, pineapple or Bearnaise if you have krone to spare after splashing 30 bucks on a weird pie.

Methodology
For each U.S. state, we used the most populous city and searched on dominos.com and pizzahut.com to find a store. Using the online ordering systems, we found the price of a large cheese pizza with a classic base. When the most populous city wasn’t available, we used the next one. We applied a similar method for each country, using the capital to find a store.
We also recorded the price of the most expensive pizza in every country, allowing us to pinpoint the five most expensive pizzas worldwide from each chain. We also picked out any pizzas that were unique or unusual and noted them down before isolating the five most unique from each chain. Every country’s pizza price was recorded in its local currency and converted using xe.com.
Spain’s prices have been reduced by 50%, as online promotions automatically cut their prices in half.
The data was collected in September 2022.
