Pizza-Paj

Pizza is pretty popular in sweden- at the ever popular kebab stands (not kebabs like chunks of meat and veggies on skewers but a plate of lettuce/cucumber/tomato/thinly sliced meat/weird sauce) found frozen in grocery store aisles, and there are a few pizza places around uppsala, and even in flogsta. But the toppings may be slightly different. Banana, for instance, is pretty popular. Seafood on top is pretty popular. there is no 'peperoni.' there are kebab pizzas, which has the thinly sliced meat and the cucumber and the tomatoes on top. Why did this come up? I bought a 'Bolognese' pizza without parsing the ingredients: ham, tomatoes, ground meat, cheese, and onion. interesting.
secondly- Paj. (Pie). It's offered at every cafe as a main course: pie is really kishe. It will also have anything in it, including salmon. Fish (or the appetizing fish-paste) can go on just about anything here.
Food confuses me, and in all honesty--- i miss pokey sticks.
