Most Popular Pizza Toppings in the U.S.

brunos_world

Apparently 37 percent of us are boring, because a recent study from food delivery provider Foodler reveals that’s the percentage of us who typically order plain cheese pizza. But aside from those Luddites, the rest of you surprised us a little. The top 10 most-ordered pizza toppings aren’t exactly what we might’ve predicted. (For example, check out where onions ranked.)

After analyzing pizza orders from thousands of restaurants in the United States and Canada, Foodler says the top 10 pizza toppings are as follows:

Pepperoni
Mushrooms
Onions
Sausage
Bacon
Extra cheese
Black olives
Green peppers
Pineapple
Spinach

In addition to that data, Foodler also reveals that when we order “half and half” pizzas, the two most divisive ingredients (a.k.a. DON’T LET THEM TOUCH EACH OTHER) are green peppers and pineapple, which makes sense because totally reasonable people like green peppers on their pizza, and total whack jobs order pineapple as a pizza topping.

The Cannoli

Cannoli are Italian pastry desserts. Cannoli originated in Sicily and are a staple of Sicilian cuisine. They are also popular in Italian American cuisine.
Cannoli consist of tube-shaped shells of fried pastry dough, filled with a sweet, creamy filling usually containing ricotta. They range in size from "cannulicchi", no bigger than a finger, to the fist-sized proportions typically found south of Palermo, Sicily.

The History of Cannoli

Cannoli come from the Palermo area and were historically prepared as a treat during Carnevale season, possibly as a fertility symbol; one legend assigns their origin to the harem of Caltanissetta. The dessert eventually became a year-round staple throughout Italy.

The versions with which Americans are most familiar tend to involve variations on the original concept. This is possibly due to adaptations made by Italians who immigrated to the United States in the early 1900s and discovered limited availability of certain ingredients.

The cannoli sold in Italian-American bakeries today usually still contain ricotta, but mascarpone is a less common alternative. Rarely, the filling is a simple custard of sugar, milk, and cornstarch. In either case, the cream is often flavored with vanilla or orange flower water and a small amount of cinnamon. Chopped pistachios, semi-sweet chocolate pieces, and candied citrus peel or cherries are often still included, dotting the open ends of the pastries. Today some companies are expanding on the cannolo, filling it with Nutella, peanut butter and other non-traditional ingredients.
