You might find this very odd, but in other parts of teh world pizza can come with more then just sausage and cheese. Japan has a tatste for the popular Italian pie, but they have quite a diffrent taste in toppings, like this pie:
The Seafood Pizza:
Toppings: Shrimp, Squid, Tuna, Mayonnaise
#2: Toppings: Shrimp, Squid, Octopus, Clam, Scallops, Crab Legs
The Quattro:
Toppings: Shrimp, White Sesame/ Asparagus, Bacon/ Chopped Beef, Garlic, Steak Sauce/ Shimeji Mushrooms, Mushrooms, Red Pepper
And they also can replace your traditional tomato sauce with something called Squid Ink Sauce, as experienced by the author of the site I found on the subject:
Of course, no intro to Japanese pizza would be complete without mention of the Squid Ink Pizza. In these pizzas (and pastas) the tomato sauce is replaced with a black-as-sin squid ink sauce. To be honest, squid ink sauce doesn't taste all that bad but tomato sauce is ten times better. Plus squid ink looks terrible & stains your mouth black, so I have never found a reason to eat more than a spoonful of the stuff.
Curry Monterey
Toppings: Curry Sauce, Potato, Fresh Mayonnaise, Canadian Bacon, Sweet Corn, Onion, Green Pepper, Black Pepper
