Wait so Ham isn't part of a pizza at all in USA?
Here in Sweden the main stuff are always. With the exception of a "Child pizza" which have removed the Ham. Even as a kid I never ordered that one.
Pizza dough part
Tomato sauce
Cheese (Not drowned in cheese then)
Ham
After that you throw toppings on and if people want less than that they are nuts.
For me, it's kebab and pineapple that rules the pizza world. Also add a kebab medium sauce as well.
US here. I remember way back that ham use to be a topping people ordered sometimes. I believe people can still order it at most places, but it isn't a mainstay as a single topping pizza(really only in multi-topping use). Mainstay pizzas types are, cheese(child pizza as you would call it), pepperoni, sausage, meat-lovers(usually has pepperoni, sausage, bacon, ham), supreme(pepperoni, ham, sausage, onions & green peppers, mushrooms and black olives). Basically, ham has become specialty ingredient, probably because it is a higher priced meat type.
I for one really only like pepperoni. First off, I'm not much of a meat eater. I like chicken(though it has to be prepared to my standards), bacon(but not really any other pig meat), and pepperoni.
With pizza, I don't like chicken on it, because I like chicken to be not chewy. I don't know what it is, but bacon put on pizza ruins the bacon, mainly because the bacon is rarely crunchy, bacon must be crispy. Now, on some occasions when when I didn't have a say, I had to endure sausage on pizza, the problem is when I eat sausage on pizza, which is really the only time I've ever eaten sausage, my stomach feels like I tried to murder it.
But with pepperoni, I get no problems. My stomach is fine and my body's digestive schedule doesn't change.
I don't know why, but I have a very picky digestive track, taste buds, and preferences(like textures).
