When I go to Japan, one thing I miss is American pizza. They put corn, mayonnaise, and potatoes on their pizza. Fucking nasty. I don't think I ever saw corn on pizza here in PA anyway.

The idea of potatoes on pizza doesn’t bother me but corn and mayonnaise have me raising an eyebrow.

Japanese mayo is different from American mayo.

They yokes are included, American just has egg whites. It does affect the taste, but not that significantly. Japanese mayo is better IMO.

There's also a vinegar difference, plus the MSG magic. Japanese mayo is definitely better and it goes on a lot of stuff.

Close, American mayo uses the whole egg, usually. Japanese mayo only uses the egg yolks.

There's a place in Ecuador called "Country Chicken al Horno" that makes, easily, a top 5 pizza I've ever had. The toppings weren't incredibly exotic, but the sauce had some local spice melange that was out-of-this-world.

Mayonnaise was an option though. They put mayo on EVERYTHING in Ecuador.
