the best pizza I've had has been while on vacation, once as a teenager and once a few years ago, I have not been able to recreate them but I'll never forget them

There used to be this pizza joint close to where I grew up that had the best sausage pizzas ever! Sadly it was a mom & pop shop that went under when all the chains moved in, I've never had a sausage pizza as good as the ones they made.

My sister loves pineapple on her pizza and one day while making homemade pizza she added about two handfuls of fresh cut pineapple. The entire pizza was ruined as it soaked through all the ingredients and the crust was too watery to bake.

The first time I ever ate pizza it was cracker thin and I assumed all pizzas were created equally. Apparently not as it's rare to find a very thin crust pizza.
My most vivid pizza memory takes place over 40 years ago, the first time I came to the US as a graduate school student from Sweden. One evening I went to dinner with friends, they suggested a pizza place. Having had pizza many times in Sweden I was highly agreeable to the idea of pizza. Imagine my surprise when I saw people picking up their pizza and eating it with their hands! You see in Sweden pizza is individual size and you always use a knife and fork to eat pizza. Needless to say I quickly adapted to the US custom of eating pizza with your hands!

One of my earliest pizza memories is making homemade pizza at the age of 7. Of course it wasn't completely homemade, my mom bought me a pizza kit, I believe Chef Boy Ardee? I had a lot of fun with those boxed pizza mixes, adding ingredients to the top of the pizza and to the crust as well.

I have a couple of favorite pizza memories. The first one is from when there was a pizza party for one of the soccer teams I was on at the end of the season. I had such a good time at that pizza party. I also remember when I was younger me and some of my family members would go to Pizza Hut a lot. We had such a good time eating at Pizza Hut together back in the day.

I grew up in Bosnia and had the best pizzeria few blocks away. As kids, we would save money (change), and after we has enugh we would all go and buy us a big pizza, and since there were so many kids, pizza wasn't that big for all of us, we learned how to share.

When I was growing up, we lived 13 miles form the nearest take out pizza parlor. So, my birthday was the only time I got a "real" pizza. That once a year treat is still one of my favorite birthday memories. I didn't know until years later that my best friend hated pepperoni pizza, but once a year she ate it for me because she knew how much of a treat it was.

my most vivid memory is when my husband and I were dating. We ordered a take out pizza and when we went to pick it up on the take out tray was a dead fly. My fiance asked it that was extra. Sounds dumb now, but at the time it was funny to me.
