Pizza with Honey

Pizza with honey reigns as a divisive topping trend, outpacing even pineapple's controversy since 2022. Mike's Hot Honey sparked a 300% surge in spicy honey drizzles on pepperoni pizza, a move traditionalists denounce as a declaration of war against Naples. Yet, 45% of younger diners in a 2023 poll embraced it as a bold upgrade, citing a 20% faster breakdown of the pepperoni's fat when honey is added. The debate hinges on balance: the honey's heat must not overpower, making it a tighter rope to walk than the average topping innovation.
