Is cheese a pizza topping?

Thanks to Makalala for this poll suggestion!

If you have an idea for a poll, please submit poll suggestions in the "Front Page Poll Questions" thread. :thumbup:​

Yes and no; depends on what stage of the pizza life the cheese is applied.

There's Cheese pizza and there's extra cheese pizza. the latter one is a topping.

 

[Dr. Havok]

Do not forget mozzarella cheese as a topping.

My exact thoughts

If Cheese in cheese pizza isn't a topping than is Pepperoni a topping on Pepperoni pizza

I'd imagine cheese pizza is essentially considered plain and anything else with the topping name is in fact a topping.

A "cheese" pizza is just a plain pie. When I order, the word "cheese" never enters the conversation eg. " Can I have a large pizza with Pepperoni, mushrooms, green peppers, and green olives, please." In the 70s, this was simply a "combination with olives" in every town I lived in here in Canada (and there were quite a few)...you could order it anywhere and they'd know what you meant. Times have sure changed, on that account at least.

Cheese isn't a topping, it's a requisite. It is one of the three required ingredients for it to qualify as a pizza.

I've had dessert pizzas made at college so I think cheese is a topping.

Definition of a pizza: "a dish of Italian origin consisting of a flat, round base of dough baked with a topping of tomato sauce and cheese, typically with added meat or vegetables."
It says topping of tomato sauce and cheese, so technically even the sauce is a topping. The only thing that isn't a topping is the dough on the bottom.

Cheese is a topping, now pineapple is not a topping and never should be a topping

I believe you have just started another poll.

 

[Envious]

Negative. If you put extra cheese on it then maybe.

 

[H0LLYW00D]

Extra cheese sure, if not then its just a pizza with no toppings in my eyes.

PIZZA is a dish of Italian origin consisting of a flat, round base of dough baked with a "topping" of tomato sauce and cheese, typically with "added" meat or vegetables.

Anything that goes on top of the pizza is a topping, hence the name "topping".
Done with that, next question...

Anything that goes on top of the toppings is an "added topping", and usually costs extra if ordered from a restaurant.
