Pineapple. Of all the people that hate it, I'm not convinced the majority have tried it (exceptions for those who hate pineapple on its own)

Edit: also it's best on white pizza

The underrated combos is where the gains are.

Anchovies with olives and capers.

We all know pineapple and Canadian bacon (can also be Spam).

Pepperoni and jalapeños.

Blue cheese, fig, and caramelized onion.

Pesto as the sauce under the cheese and fresh or sun dried tomatoes on top.

Feta. Sure, pizza tends to be already covered in cheese, but this is different cheese, and that is a good thing. I think it goes well with some of my other faves, such as green olives, pineapple, banana peppers.

Salami. It's like pepperoni, but different.

Alfredo sauce instead of tomato sauce, together with a few toppings like chicken and red onion, is heavenly, and doesn't seem to cause heartburn.

Try it before you judge me: pineapple, anchovies, a tad Tabasco. It's absolutely brilliant.

Arugula adds a sharp flavor that really pairs with cheese well. Might be controversial, but I'm a big fan of the salad pizzas. The best tend to be the house salads of romaine, red onion, tomato, and olives up ended atop a good thin crust pizza with plenty of sauce.

Edit: Oh!! If making an arugula salad pizza, I find it works best when paired with something incredibly salty, like anchovy, used very sparingly, some thinly sliced pecorino romano, and a drizzle of good balsamic (that thick shit, not the watery cheapo one). Throw some halved sweet cherry tomatoes on there and some thin sliced onions? Oh! One of my favorite meals after a night of drinking.

Sundried tomatoes. Goat cheese.

egg pizza

I love pineapple, the sweetness goes great with other savory toppings.

peanuts. don't knock it unless you've tried a chicken-peanut-curry-pineapple pizza

I love cranberry and camembert pizza

Pineapple and pepperoni, Prosciutto, Salami, Hot sauce/hot honey, Buffalo sauce/bbq sauce instead of pizza sauce

One of my favorites is bbq sauce, brisket, cheese and, hear me out, diced pickles

Roasted potatoes paired with chicken or beef and onion

Also pears, blue cheese, candied pecans, and balsamic glaze

No one mentioned goat cheese+honey ? Maybe just an European thing !

I had pear slices on a pizza once expecting it to be kinda weird at best, and it was genuinely fantastic.

Fresh corn is weird but gives a similar sweet juicy effect. I like corn+feta+chile peppers

Roasted garlic. Everytime I go to Mod pizza I cannot forget the roasted garlic. And yes, I always get it with pineapple

Mushrooms

Here in Chicago we enjoy a thin crust with Italian beef and hot giardiniera.

Worst is tomato slices. Waaaayyyy too watery. It is like someone left your pizza out in the rain.

Fig jam. A local place makes a fig jam and bacon artisanal pizza that's to die for.

I got one that is more cursed then underrated:

Mac and cheese pizza, but right before you eat a bite you pour a tiny bit of cola on it first.

I don’t know if you cancan call it underrated, but bacon and egg is the best pizza

My toppings of choice are olives, mushrooms, and pineapple.

Jalapenos are too important to me to not consider them generally underrated.

Charred fatty goose breast.

Blew my mind.

My personal favorite is pineapple, mushroom, and jalapeño. Sweet, savory, and a dash of spiciness. Then I’ll usually add some dried scotch bonnet flakes if I’m eating at home because I’m a fiend for spice and scotch bonnets are delicious

Pineapple with red onion, black olives, and jalapeños

Tapatio hot sauce (or Valentinos), Crystal hot sauce, garlic powder, salt, pepper, sriracha.

All on the same pizza.

Cream cheese and black olives 👌oh so good

Sardines, olives, capers.

Artichoke hearts

Prosciutto

Black olives

Either kalamata or green olives. I like green olives with pepperoni, kalamata usually by themselves.

Another all-timer is anchovies + mushroom. It's basically a fish stew if done the right way

I order the vegetarian pizza because I like all the vegetables but then I add two toppings of meat because I like meat.

Spicy beef

My ideal trifecta - fresh tomatoes, green olives, pepperoni

Ketchup.

Edit: step aside, pineapple on pizza. There’s a new topping people get uppity about now!

I love adding black olives or banana peppers to pizza along with a meat (usually pepperoni or meatball). Banana peppers specifically give it the contrasting flavor that I think people like from adding pineapple to a pizza, but without being so pineapple.

chocolate. I kid you not, it tasted just awesome. Was a limited edition unfortunately.
