The Ketchup Pizza?

Here are Ireland's weirdest pizza orders to date

In celebration of National Cheese Pizza Day (Sept 5th), we get a glimpse of the strangest custom pizza requests made on the Deliveroo platform in Ireland to date.

The data shows the most popular pizza orders in Ireland, but firstly, recognition must be given to the wallflowers of pizza orders, and once you see them, you’ll never feel the need to debate pineapple’s appropriation ever again.

Some may say their actions are unforgivable for even thinking of these unusual combinations, others will find them questionable at the very least, but we won’t pizza shame.

Without further ado - Ireland’s weirdest custom pizza requests to date:

Weirdest Pizzas in Ireland

The Roast Pizza

One devout roast dinner lover in Cork City asked that the restaurant, instead of the selection of toppings listed, would decorate his pizza with a generous spread of roast chicken and carrots. Mammy would be so proud.

Sweet and Savoury

We know - public opinion of sweet pizzas is mixed. Some consider it to be just another wonderful way to enjoy pizza, while others view them as total abominations, but one Ballsbridge customer played with fire when she requested a chocolate dessert pizza topped with chilli flakes.

Ketchup Pizza

Everyone knows that pizza is made with a dedicated pizza sauce. That sauce is not ketchup. In any case, a ketchup-crazed individual near Stephen’s Green requested that her pizza base be slapped with the condiment instead of the usual sauce. Each to their own?

Salt and Vinegar

A customer in Tallaght, who presumably confused pizza with fish and chips, requested in the order notes for the restaurant to ‘put plenty of salt and vinegar on it’. To be fair, it doesn’t sound gross, but there’s no doubt that it’s an unusual request.

The Breathalyser

One Donnybrook customer embarked on a mission to create the ultimate bad breath sensation. There were no out of the ordinary special requests as such, but… her toppings choices were tuna, anchovies, basil and garlic. They speak (or breathe) for themselves.
