Zippia got their hands on a bunch of data from Yelp and posted the most common type of pizza we order in all 50 states.
Cheese pizza was the most popular, ranking first in 29 states. It’s especially popular on the East Coast.
Chicken is much more popular as a topping than it used to be as “Barbecue chicken pizza” was #1 in seven states: California, Colorado, Michigan, Minnesota, Nebraska, Utah, and Virginia. Three other “chicken” pizzas made the list too: “Buffalo chicken” in Delaware, “chicken bacon ranch” in South Dakota, and “grilled chicken white pizza” in Maine.
Montana and Oregon are the only states where pepperoni ranked first, but “Meat Lovers” is #1 in Louisiana, West Virginia, and Wyoming.
“White pizza” is #1 in Alaska, “taco pizza” is #1 in Iowa, and “Caprese” pizza ranked first in Hawaii… which means Hawaii’s favorite type of pizza isn’t Hawaiian. But Hawaiin pizza did place first in three other states: Georgia, North Dakota, and New Mexico are all down with pineapple as a pizza topping.
