From a local pizza place. (at least I think its local, pretty sure its not a chain)

No I didn’t do this just for a joke, I actually like it. Problem? Catch me outside, how 'bout that?

    I’m tired of pretending that the sweet and tangy flavors of pineapple don’t perfectly compliment the meat and tomato on a pizza.

    The most common variety of pizza is made with a fruit sauce but people then act like Pineapple is a bridge too far.

    I like to put pineapple on pizza I make at home. But I buy fresh pineapple. Canned pineapple is just too bland.

      Canned pineapple is also too … Liquidy? It gets the juices everywhere making the whole pizza taste like canned pineapple and not a nice combination of the salty flavours of pizza with the nice sweet complimentary flavour of pineapple. I specifically only accept home made hawaii pizza because of this fact.

      … But i dont like sweet flavours on pizza. I like em on the salty or cheesy side, so maybe thats why?

    Pineapple on pizza is great … but with salami and … what even is that, ground beef? This is not the way.

    Pineapple on pizza hate is pretty overblown. It’s not great, it’s not bad, and it’s better than you expect it should be. It’s not something I’d ever get on purpose, but I’ll eat it if it’s freely available somewhere, or there’s no other alternative.

    My one criticism of “pineapple on pizza” actually has fuck all to do with the pineapple (and while you did it here, you also didn’t. Let me explain.)

    The issue is that the common pairing of “sweet ham and sweet pineapple” is a grave mistake. Both toppings fill the same role, and doubling with no contrast is too much imo. Some add salty bacon which does help, and you’ve added salty pepperoni and savory beef which further helps (though in my opinion crowds it, the ideal pizza is 3 toppings, but still way better than just ham/pine, this pizza looks good!)

    Ideally, the best way to utilize the sweet pineapple on a pizza is to combine it with salty pepperoni and spicy jalapenos (if you can handle them).

    I’ll never understand how people think it’s completely okay to edit what others like.

    These same people that give others grief about what they eat are the same people that will bitch and moan about others being all up in their shit about the music/movies they like, where they work, how they live, who they live with….

    Life is short, eat the pineapple pizza like the world is watching, and proudly tell those that don’t like it to kindly fuck themselves.

      I was a hater. I wasn’t like in anyone’s face about it or anything but I looked down on it.

      Then I had the Holy Trinity. Pepperoni, Pineapple, Jalapeño. Salty, spicy, sweet.

      Read up on the time Christianity started a war with itself over flat bread vs not flat bread. People love to control others and its just so fucking weird. Ive got enough social anxiety and life problems without thinking about controlling what everyone else does.

      In my experience it’s mostly Italians - ‘that’s not REAL pizza/bolognese/carbonara/etc’ whenever other people try adding their own twist to things.

      Kind of ironic how angry they get about it, given pasta came from China and tomatoes are from the Americas, so their entire cuisine is imported.

        Pizza as we know it isnt even from Italy its from the US. Im pretty sure ‘Italian’ pizza was just some dough with sauce on it.

    Pineapple is amateur hour, there are so many more crazy things to put on pizza.

    Also less crazy but still different. Anyone want Tandoori Chicken Pizza? It’s like BBQ but with an Indian food twist.

    Sometimes I think about trying a pizza with pineapple but there’s just so many pizzas we wind up having something else.

    One of my favorite pizzas is a bacon cheeseburger pizza with pickle slices so I’m no judge of food!

    I have a bigger problem with the minced beef.

    I dont know, it works well on Lahmacun, but in the photo it doesnt look all too appetising.
