discussion Thoughts on Pineapple on Pizza?

[KillThePaladin]

I don't get how this is such a big debate?

 

[NumNeg]

Nope. I don't really like pinneapple, and even less in a hot surface.

 

[frafildur]

I've tried it once or twice. I didn't hate it, but also I didn't think "omg this is the best version of pizza ever."

It's fiiiiiiine. Everything's fiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiine.

I will eat pizza with pineapple on it - but am not a fan. However, as various others have said - to each his/her own.

only belongs on a "Hawaiian Pizza" with Jalapenos.

Rules for Hawaiian Pizza:

1. Ham is NOT Canadian Bacon.
2. Canadian Bacon is not bacon.

Pineapple on a pizza is a lot like Ketchup on a hot dog -- just don't do it.

I may not choose pineapple as my go-to pizza topping, but its sweet and juicy flavor can be surprisingly complementary. I just don't get the irrational hatred toward this little fruit on a pizza. If anything, I'd expect anchovies or tuna to get that kind of grilling.

This looks so fucking good and I just realized how hungry I am

Pineapple is a wonderfull topping especially when paired with the likes of ham and blue cheese.

The best and true topping, pepperoni and pineapple goes HARD MAN

As with most pizzas, it all depends on the ingredients, dry pineapple and old cheese, and it'll taste like trash, but, fresh juicy pineapple and good cheese, and it'll taste great. I think this is where the hate begins, some places re-heat their pizzas, which, dries the pineapple and makes it feel hard and taste bland, you can kind of get away doing the same with salty or meaty pizzas, because they usually aren't juicy outside of the cheese.

I personally like it, but my favorite, is still Three Cheese Pizza.

It's a decent pizza unless you're Italian

im italian and i think its fine. pizza was originally just a way to get rid of excess ingredients that were going bad anyway, nothing wrong with a little ham and pineapple. i like it best when the pineapple is in small slivers more than big juicy chunks tho. i bet something like sundried pineapple (if that's even a thing) would go hard as fuck

I like the combination of chicken and pineapple on pizza. Although I order it very rarely.

The true is most people have just had it with ham, and this is ok, but it much nicer when add to a supreme. You can switch the peperoni with ham if you like but its good both ways.

I dislike warm pineapple, just doesn't taste very good in my opinion

I got a daughter that only like hawaii pizza (with pineapple), it's not bad, but it's boring, I rather have different tastes.... I mostly never eat it, but if I'm really hungry, I can take a bite and it's okay...

Chicken definitely doesn't belong on pizza either. After the early 1990s was when you started seeing "weird stuff" on pizza, and I'm all but sure pineapple was the first. Again, there IS a reason Italy and Hawaii are on opposite sides of the planet. And if you ask for pineapple on pizza in Italy, the other patrons will yell at you and insult you (though it would almost certainly be in Italian so you probably wouldn't understand it...)

You should try chicken with bbq sauce on pizza, it's amazing

 

[degenmans]

the way most pineapple pizzas are put together they end up being a soggy and redundantly sweet mess, nothing wrong with fruit on pizza as long as you're balancing/contrasting the flavours

What a horrible idea.
