Japan doesn’t do potatoes but corn on pizza is popular. I’m willing to tolerate a lot of different toppings but for some reason corn just seems wrong to me
Absolutely not. Granted, my country is right next to Italy, but I’ve only ever heard about spaghetti with ketchup on the internet, from people from other countries.
I grew up with a lot of Italian cooking and when I first went to Japan I saw a small pile of spaghetti in one of the bento lunch boxes covered with what I thought was marinara sauce. When I ate it and it turned out to be ketchup I almost spit it on the floor in shock.
Interesting…it is extremely normal in all the Scandinavian countries, and I’ve encountered it a lot in Germany and Netherlands as well. I never thought it was considered strange. I ate it a lot as a kid 30 years ago.
Japan putting ketchup on spaghetti: “Hold my sake.”
What other condiment can you put on there? Mayonaisse?
Meanwhile, Korea is doing crimes by adding corn and/or potatoes on their pizza.

My local pizza place (in Japan) puts corn on pineapple pizza.
I might be a degenerate that enjoys pineapple on pizza, but corn is a strong no
I mean, I’ve seen plenty of Brazilians doing that for years, too.
Frenchies are doing it as well
What? Putting ketchup on spaghetti is 100% normal everywhere…

Funnily I also haven’t heard much good about Scandinavian cuisine
Would’ve expected more from Germany though. On the other hand, they do eat Schnitzel mit Tunke…
Schnitzel is a Swiss thing that the Germans adopted (and did not improve).
Some very famous Michelin restaurants in Europe are based on Scandinavian cuisine…Noma and The alchemist come to mind
