I have a guideline I like to follow when putting together my pizzas, I like something spicy, something savory, and something sweet
Spice: banana peppers, jalepenos, or yes, hot sauce if that’s what I’ve got
Savory: bacon,chicken, pulled pork, sausage, pepperoni, mushrooms,
Sweet: onions, picked red onions, roasted corn, pineapple
You can blend stuff (put tandoori chicken on the pizza) for even more interesting combos!
I feel like one of each gives a great result.
The point you raise reminds me of when Signal dropped SMS support, after my efforts to convert all the non techie people in my life over to it. So sad when it happens…
