Does pineapple belong on a pizza?

About Makeover Monday

MakeoverMonday is a social data project: “Each week we post a link to a chart, and its data, and then you rework the chart. Maybe you retell the story more effectively, or find a new story in the data. We’re curious to see the different approaches you all take. Whether it’s a simple bar chart or an elaborate infographic, we encourage everyone of all skills to partake. Together we can have broader conversations about and with data.”

Starting from Jan 08, 2018, I decided to put aside one hour on Monday weekly to create some visualization and find some insights from the data.

The datasets are published each week at: MakeoverMonday Datasets.

Makeover Monday 20200330

This week’s topic is very entertaining (I guess this is a good thing given all the mess happening at this moment) – British’s preferences of pizza topping. Do you love pineapples on pizza? Well, I personally love it :). You can find the original article and viz here.

My Visualization

I am using Gantt plot (again) this week to show the differences between male and female, while keeping the info of preferences across different toppings.

Please notice that all the visualizations are designed for desktop view, so it is recommended to view them on a desktop device.

Insights

  • Interesting enough, for all the meat and spices toppings, there are more male saying they like it on pizza than female; And it’s the opposite for vegetable and fruits toppings;
  • There are four toppings that over half of both male and female showed preference on – ham, chicken, pepper, and mushroom.
