Answers:
Most Americans do not like anchovies!. They aren't very familiar with them and about the only place we encounter them by name is as a pizza topping!. So it is kind of standard for someone to say "no anchovies" when ordering pizza!.
Oddly, Caesar salad dressing is popular here and a true version of it has anchovies in it!. But mixed in pretty well!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Some people don't like the smell, the look, OR the taste!.
Why!?
The smell: It IS fish, so!.!.!. it may smell a little fishy!.!.!.!.!. most people don't think that is very appealing!.
The look: Well, they are small, black, and somtimes there is the spine showing of the fish!.!.!.!.!. ick!.
The taste: I think that they are very, very salty, so, a few may be good for shaking up a recipe, but eating them alone may not be "the most delicious thing for people!."
Lol, I don't like them!.!.!.!. but that is just my opinion!.!.!.!.
Hope this helped,

It's whacked out to me, but most don't seem to like anything about anchovies!. I LOVE them!. They're my favorite pizza topping along with feta and are great on salads!.

I'm a third generation Italian!. I love anchovies!. They're great in salad, on pasta, and delicious on pizza!. My boyfriend however would not touch any of these dishes with a ten foot pole!. Not everyone has an adventurous paletteWww@FoodAQ@Com
I say it's because the bones remind them of hair!. How do they smell fishy if they are in olive oil or dry salted!. It's a silly USA thing!. I can say that I'm from the USA!. I eat anchovies!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
That's because 85% of Americans taste buds have been tainted and numbed by fast food crap!. Period!.!.!.!.!.!.
