Ah, the vain quest for the "best" pizza. The matter is so subjective that there's no settling it.
The methodology used in the video is so laughably unscientific that I'm pretty sure the whole exercise is partly or wholly unserious. As I wrote in a comment:
I appreciate the effort to make such a video, but for me, things started to go wrong when it was decided that pepperoni was a "crutch." And claiming you need a straight cheese pizza, then allowing basil as a topping, doesn't increase my confidence in the fairness of this far-reaching review.
Really, I'm thinking fairness was never the point, and Joshua should have been more up-front about that: he was on a quest to find the best pizza for him. Some other commenters below the video said they could tell Joshua was a pizza rookie.
Pepperoni pizza should have been the baseline: pepperoni is one of the most basic tastes/smells/experiences to be associated with pizza. And that whole nonsense in which Scott hijacks the video, suggests removing pepperoni to be able to taste the "basic" pizza, then allowing basil to be placed on top for evaluation was just ludicrous. So, we're saying pepperoni bad, but basil good? I call bullshit on the whole endeavor. Joshua, you're better than this.
