Colin Hagendorf is a venerable slice expert. The Brooklyn native recently completed his quest to eat at every pizza slice joint in Manhattan, chronicling his 370-plus slice binge on his blog Slice Harvester. In honor of National Pizza Week, Hagendorf, 28, offers his tips for finding pizza nirvana.
“All of your senses are part of the experience,” Hagendorf told TODAY.com. “You don’t hold your nose or wear gloves when eating pizza.”

Apparently it's national pizza week. So share your favorite toppings,pizza place or recipes.

My favorite place to go out for pizza is a place called Mario's....but, they serve more than just pizza. Great food.

As for toppings...I like everything (except pepperoni). We will usually either order a supreme. Or sausage (maybe canadian bacon),mushroom,black olive and green chili.

Yum.

EXCEPT Peperoni? Holy cow.

Flat slightly greasy NY Style Peperoni pizza is exactly what i'm talking about - always.

Rarely eat pizza out. The boy has worked at Pizza Hutt for the last 3 years. Kinda sick of it.

BUT when I do eat it, my favorite topping is pepperoni and jalapenos.

LOL

truthfully I don't care for Canadian bacon at all.

now we did get a breakfast pizza at our local Casey's the other day, it had eggs, real bacon and cheese and salsa on it, pretty damned good.

Can relate to this actually. For about a year when my ex was between jobs,he delivered pizza for Papa John's nights and weekends. Always brought home pizza's that were ordered and not picked up by customers by closing time.

I gained most of my extra weight that year due to that...and I can't eat Papa John's anymore either.

I mean real, good, ol' fashioned bacon. Straight from a pack of bacon.

I will eat peperoni on a pizza...it's just not my first choice.

Speaking of Papa John's though...they do make a really good vegitarian pizza. Something else I learned when the ex worked there,I probably wouldn't have ever ordered one myself.

I haven't had a good papa-john's pizza.

Well...really good pizza places are slim pickens out here in NM...you take what you can get.

My sister makes a homemade vegetable pizza that is not bad. it has ranch dressing instead of tomota sauce and is a cold pizza. I know i know, but it's awesome. Just not traditional.

Yep ... that's me too.

Every once in awhile I like the thinner NY style , but I love me some pan pizza when I am eating pizza.

Can't stand the stuffed crust crap though.

I'm a great lover of many types of pizza. However, my regular order from Papa John's is a large Spinach Alfredo pizza with Mushrooms and Chicken. In general, though, I like the less pretty pizzas, the ones where you can feel your arteries harden just looking at it.

Chicago/Deep Dish pizza is...I dunno...weird. It's a MEAL...too much of a meal for my tastes. Stuffed crust stuff? I agree..just wrong. Course, if it were stuffed with BACON...maybe.

Hmm, short women, fast cars, and bacon. Me thinks you and I could be friends.

Oh, and do you have a smoker?
