I don't mean how much. I mean how do you like it prepared? I like a regular cheese pizza. The local place used to do a sesame seed crust, but they stopped that. Sometimes, we'll get it with sausage, but I'm a purist. If I was forced to eat a pepperoni pizza, I'd remove all the pepperoni.

Love pizza. Sausage, pepperoni, ham, green peppers, onion, and extra sauce.

I can do sausage and pepperoni solo.

I like plain cheese pizza on a thin crust. I hate soggy crust pizza! I also like Hawaiian pizza also, although not too many people I know would even eat it. I guess it's an acquired taste.

We vary toppings, plain to almost everything.

The pizza is a plate. Anything can go onto the plate.

When I used to make my own pizza the topping was whatever edibles I had on hand. Generally meat and potatoes with some veggies thrown in. Cheese held everything together if I had cheese.

Everything and extra cheese on a pan crust (skip the sardines), but I can't have it anymore due to diet restrictions. We've found that the frozen french bread pizzas aren't too shabby and fit the diet when accompanied by a tossed salad. Used to eat a small pie and a foot-long sub all by myself... those days are long gone.

You live in New York so you have easy access to the best genuine Italian pizzas this side of the big pond. When I was sent to Albany NY. to repair one of the boilers my company manufactured I stumbled across a little hole in the wall pizzeria in Troy Ny. that did pizza right. Ya got to watch the italian guy spin the dough, then add the italian sausage to it with plenty of fennel seed in it, then put it into a real firebrick oven and while it was baking he would slice real mozzarella cheese off of a big wheel and add it to the pizza just as he took it out of the oven.

Thin crust, extra cheese, loaded including Jalapenos (but no sardines).

I like it made by Patsy's on First Ave at 117 Street. An alternative is John's of Bleecker Street. But if I'm just looking for a slice I like Sal & Carmine's on Broadway at 102 Street although I haven't been there in a few years!

Thin crust, sausage and cheese please. When I can get there, Frank Pepe’s for the best I have ever eaten.

I'm not fond of eggplant on veggie pies, I like most toppings , too many cheese pies in a row get boring, Peperoni good, sausage, meatball, oh yeah even pepper and onion. Used to be a place in the alley near Wall Street, hole in the wall. line out the door. you could see the pizza come out of the oven, all kinds, and disappear before you got to the server, eat it standing up in the 'dining room' , no chairs, no room, little narrow shelves on the walls. Good Pizza!!!

Here's my take on pepperoni. We never ate pizza with pepperoni in NYC in the 1950s or 60s. When I was in the Army at Ft. Gordon, GA there were pizza trucks that came around to all the offices at lunchtime. A coworker, who was also from Queens NY, would split a pie with me every once in a while. The pizza was dreadful but we agreed that a pepperoni pie was at least edible. 20 years later I was working on the NFL pregame show at NBC and Domino's was a sponsor so they delivered a bunch of pies every Sunday. Domino's pizza sucks, but I found that the pepperoni pizza was edible and tasted very much like the pizza at Ft. Gordon!

BOTTOM LINE: if you make lousy pizza put pepperoni on it to mask the taste!
