Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must begin with TIL. Linking to a source of info is optional, but highly recommended as it helps to spark discussion.

Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding non-TIL posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-TIL posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.

I hear Sweden puts bannana, curry, and ham on pizza. I like some weird foods, but I haven't tried that yet....
Simultaneously?
Now that I think about it though, pizza with a curry sauce could be really good. No thanks on the banana though.
Baltimore has palak paneer pizza. Squeaky paneer + mozzarella? Yes yes yes.
My town has pizza places that make curry pizza. Your instinct is correct: it's amazing!
The banana was the main sticking point for me as well, but with all the other stuff, I can't imagine you'd get much banana flavor coming through, just a sweetness and texture.
This just made me remember my brother used to do the thing Mr Rogers recommended: putting a slice of American cheese around a banana. There's gotta be some weird food chemistry at work here if banana + cheese pops up multiple places...
You forgott peanuts and french fries, or chips as it's really are named.
Wow, you are sending me down quite the rabbit hole here...
Fries seems pretty sensible actually. Pizza fries are already a thing. Tossing some straight on top of a pie I think could add a nice crispy element to the topside, and as someone who loves the crust, more crispy starchy stuff is no issue. Saw pics with fries and hot dogs, and that seems like an unusual sausage flavor to add to a pizza, but I wouldn't turn my nose up to a slice or two. Calling that American style is definitely fair.
At first, I was less down with peanuts, thinking of that as the sole topping on a pizza. Too different a texture. But then seeing it called African pizza with all the curry, bananna, and ham, now that gives me more of a peanut stew vibe, and other than it basically subbing bananna in place of the carrot, African peanut stew is something I am totally down for. I just may need to make one of these up!
There are a few places in the US that put spaghetti on pizza.... Yeah tried it, yeah it's nasty.
Sounds...moist... 😑
AMERICAN STYLE!
Many countries have an American style pizza, and I've never seen one that you'd ever get served in America. But the Hawaiian pizza seems to be the same everywhere. Then of course, if I were asked to make an American style pizza I don't know where I'd even start.
