Perhaps the most controversial thread ever created on DP.

The answer quite simply is no. Combining pineapple with pizza sauce and cheese makes zero sense and does not go together at all. People that like this may have a serious mental problem or warped taste buds. Fruit does not belong on pizza to the point where I can no longer consider it an actual pizza.

Thoughts?
 
I love pineapple on pizza, it's my favorite.

I also like pineapple upside down cake.

Maybe I just like pineapple in general.

Why you gotta judge how a man eats his pizza? Thought this was America. Land of the free.

I had ham and pineapple pizza in Germany. Hardly any tomato sauce on it but lots of olive oil and herbs. It was topped with Gouda, I believe.

Tasted excellent! (drool)

IMO if you have to change the bread, cheese, and sauce to make pineapple pizza work, but if you do that, it is no longer considered pizza.

Pineapple with certain bread and cheeses can work - see cheesecake or upside pineapple cake, just not on pizza bread. I wonder if the inventor of pineapple pizza was on lsd?

MAGA cultists are as weird as the guy they worship over God.

Of course pineapple belongs on Pizzas! The fruit adds that little burst of sweetness to a dish that is replete with artery clogging goodness.

Cultures from the Middle East, Persia, and India do put fruits and nuts on dishes that MAGA cultists in their extremist conservatism will recoil in abject horror.

Oh now you got something against lsd, jeeze, next you'll tell me tossing midgets in velcro suits at a velcro wall is a terrible sport that should never be played. Do you just hate all of my favorite things?

That ship has sailed
 
Sure, why not? Pineapple pieces are better than anchovies. My favorite toppings are a white garlic sauce, chicken, onion and artichoke hearts.

When it's combined with ham, yes.

They call it "Hawaiian". ;)

Well, the pineapple was more like pieces of basil here and there, but the main topping was the ham and cheese.
(Dang; can't stop drooling now.)

The fact he gets to judge how others eat pizza is testament that there is freedom in America.

I agree with only one statement of yours. That's this one.

Now I will judge you and find you unworthy because you eat pineapple on your pizza, but I don't begrudge your right to bad taste.
 
i think that i've had it on a barbecue (Hawaiian?) pizza before, and it was ok. i'll vote sure, why not.

I realized that too and it's why I deleted the second part of my post.

Next you are going to tell me you ate apples and oranges with pizza.

Yuck.
 
I dont like pineapples on my pizzas because I feel that pizzas are supposed to be savory. They are not supposed to be sweet. It'd be like if I tried to dip my steak in chocolate sauce. It would just be very weird-tasting. Almost on the level of coffee mixed with tea.
 
My first day in the barracks at Peterson AFB this guy comes walking down the hall with a Dominoes box. Being the friendly guy that I am, I say "Hey! I see you got some pizza there. I sure am hungry. Is it anything good?". The guy says, "It's a Hawaiian". Now I'd never heard of such a thing so I ask if I can see it. The guy pops the box open and there's chunks of orange stuff and pink meat. I ask again, "What is it?". The guy tells me it's pineapple and ham. At this point I'm no longer joking around and, frankly, my stomach is starting to turn over a bit. It's going through my mind that I may have ended up in a place that doesn't have pepperoni or sausage and I'm starting to sweat. I said, "You ordered that?" and he looks at me kind of funny and says, "Yeah, it's good". I kind of shook my head and just walked away wondering if, first, Dominoes was the only pizza place in town and, second, what I'd managed to get myself into. Frankly, I don't remember ever eating pizza in Colorado Springs. I'm sure I did but that was one rude awakening for the kid from Schenectady. I think I finally tired a slice of Hawaiian about 10 years after that and it wasn't as bad as I'd imagined but it's still lower on my list of pizza toppings than anchovies.

Pizza is Italian peasant poverty food. It has nothing to do with exotic friuts from the opposite side of the planet.

Let's pretend you're from ' Murica, k?

You get the "Hungry Howie's" flyer. It has Hawaiian pizza with a coupon for $2 off.
 
Really good ham and pineapple on a pizza with a little onion is awesome.

Once every 5 years or so.

:2wave:
