As for the Harris Poll, they survey American consumers on their favorite brands across a huge area of industries, including household, travel, automotive and entertainment. This year, they surveyed more than 45,000 people about their brand preferences across 87 categories, and when it came to pizza, a surprise winner took the top spot and it was not any of the top ten that made the Daily Meal poll. When it came to best pizza the winner was Marco’s Pizza.  They are based out of Toledo, Ohio and have more than 600 locations in the U.S. and elsewhere. On personal note, Marco’s is #1 with us and our second favorite is #27 in the Daily Meal poll.

Enjoy your pizza however way you enjoy it and from whatever pizza place is your favorite. And to answer the burning question……YES, pineapple belongs on pizza!
