A culinary query

I recently considered a question, and searched the internet for an answer, but only found references to it, but no definition or descriptions. So now I pick the brains of the FirstOnes community.

What, exactly, constitutes a "suicide pizza?"

I know Garibaldi ordered one in a Babylon 5 episode, but his ingredients (sausage, pepperoni, mushrooms, and sun-dried tomatoes) seem a little wimpy to me in order to qualify for something called a [i]suicide[/i] pizza.

    I'm a bit bland when it comes to pizza. I only like cheese and pepperoni on mine (and occasionally sausage). But I know what you mean. Ham, chicken, and olives could also be added.

    I love pizza and many many toppings. I think people's pizza preferences are set in childhood. My parents always got different kinds of pizza so I liked all of them (think taco pizza is my favorite, but bbq chicken and pineapple on alfrado sauce is a very close second)

    Pineapple is good.
    Shrimps are excellent!
    A little bacon (not crispy)
    Champignon

    Perhaps the pizza version of that dish he made for his birthday?

    A pizza that tastes so bad, youd actually consider suicide as an alternative to eating it?

    I reckon its a pizza that tastes so good you can actually feel your arteries clogging up, hence death by pizza!

    :p

    ShadowDancer's right... if I was to make a suicide pizza, it would include pepperoni, salami, ham, bacon, kebab meat and extra cheese. I've never tried that so that must be the reason why I'm still alive. =)

    I'm not sure pizza falls even into the category of culinary delights...

    It's more in the category of deadly sins. :D

    I want pizza now.....

    I don't know what that means but by where I went to college there was this place that sold suicide hotwings which I think is self explanatory.

    Eclectionaut: You beat me to the punch. That's exactly what I call a suicide pizza. I've even tried it once, when I was working at another spare parts joint and we ordered in. It was called "Koivula Special", no knowledge of what lies behind the name, but nevertheless. Came from a small, independent franchise that had grown alongside a local plant. Apparently not very many veggie choices, thanks to that. :D It was a real artery-clogger: Kebab, minced meat, salami, bacon and ham with a lot of cheese and olives. It tasted great, but man it was a filler... and you could really feel your arteries after that one.

    I'm so glad I jog nowadays. :D

    As my parents owned an Italian Restaurant from the time i was 2 unitil i was 25.... I shall answer.

    A suicide pizza, is a pizza, filled with every kind of meat the establishment happens to have on hand, It's also known as Heart Attack with a Crust. It should be served with a side order of Plavix, and you must sign a release waiver absolving the establishment of all legal claims when you drop dead shortly after.

    As for the dish that Garibaldi had on his birthday, if you have never had Banya Cauda, you've not lived! and if you eat too much of it, you won't live long!.

    Chicken and bacon with cheese, mushrooms and peppers for me plz... never liked pepperoni or pineapple toppings, yuk.
  • Entil'ZhaEntil'Zha I see famous people
    Ham and Pineapple are good.

    we've got a local place here that does odd pizza's, they ahve one that is Chicken and Peanuts, and has a peanut sauce instead of marinara, it is to die for.

    Thanks! You've avoided many future malapropisms.

    I once tried making it. I'm not sure if I did it right, but it was still pretty good. Also, for the next three days, I sweated garlic and oil. Literally.
  • Entil'ZhaEntil'Zha I see famous people
    We used to serve Banya at our restaurant, when done right it is Oh so good, but oh so bad for you, I haven't had it in years, i think it may be about time to make it.
