Exactly, and nowdays pizza is just a trendy "tray" used to serve some exotic and new ingredients.

Once upon a time (only about 500 years ago), tomato was a new exotic ingredient in Italy too.

So exotic they called it "the gold fruit", "pomo d'oro" - gold being the seeds inside.

I’m not sure if we can call “pizza with toppings other than the strictly Italian defaults” as “trendy” anymore. Most Swedish pizzerias will happily make you a banana curry pizza, and it’ll be the one of the standard topping options on the menu. Is it a trend if it’s normal?

I think we (humans) have been putting different things on bread for as long as we’ve had bread, like GP said.
