When you think about , you probably dream about the classic style pizzas, with a crispy crust, delicious tomato sauce covered with mozzarella .
But as it’s become a delicacy across the world, several places earning recognition for their own style of pizza, including the New York slice and Chicago deep dish.
Now did you know that also has its own style?
It could often include large thin crusts and toppings you probably haven’t thought about adding to pizzas.
In a video which gained popularity on , a Swedish family shared their traditional Swedish order, which included three large pizzas with varying toppings that are common in the country – and people were horrified.
They explained in the video the first pizza was a Hawaii pizza, complete with ham and pineapple. The second one was a kebab pizza, which included doner kebab meat, chips and a garlic mayo as toppings.
But the third pizza is what caused the most commotion among viewers as it was an “Africana” pizza, which featured a mix of both pineapple and bananas.
One person wrote in the comments: “BRO WHAT ARE YOU GUYS EATING IN SWEDEN?! WHAT IS THE AFRICAN PIZZA WITH BANANAS.”
This isn’t the first time this kind of pizza has sent people across the world into shock.
In a forum discussing pizza crimes, one person shared a picture posted by Sweden’s official Twitter page of a “traditional Swedish pizza” which included banana, pineapple and curry sauce as the toppings. However, it didn’t have a good response online as people were horrified by the food creation.
“I’m tempted to turn in my Volvo after seeing this,” one person said, while another one wrote: “Pineapple? Okay. Curry? Might be good. Banana? Terrible idea. All three? Why.”
However some users went to defend bananas on pizza, with one person explaining: “Banana curry pizza is delicious. When I heard about it I made one myself just to see how bad it was. Turns out it’s really good. The banana loses some of its sweetness and caramelises and with the curry it works out great.”
Another user said: “I’m just curious as to why these three ingredients together somehow make it the most Swedish thing ever.”
