How about using substr() to cut out the last comma?

// Your string
$str = "pizza1,pizza2,pizza3,";
// The $num is the string length, minus 1 (b/c you're cutting the last character out in substr)
$num = strlen($str) - 1;
// Cut the last character with substr
$edited_str = substr($str, 0, $num);
// The result
echo $edited_str;

EDIT

As Mark Baker has pointed out, you can simply use $str = substr($str, 0, -1); instead of counting the string length. So

// Your string
$str = "pizza1,pizza2,pizza3,";
// Cut the last character with substr
$edited_str = substr($str, 0, -1);
// The result
echo $edited_str;

$moodlist = explode(',',trim($moods,','));

Just trim commas.

You Can Ignore it like this

<?php
$moods = "pizza1,pizza2,pizza3,";
$moodList = explode(",", substr($moods,0,strlen($moods)-1));
print_r($moodList);
?>
