    Pinaple on pizza, for the love of god!

      Pineapple is good on lots of food, including pizza. Another good pizza is banana, chicken, and curry. Very tasty, very juicy.

      I dislike Hawaiian pizza, but pineapple with spicy pepperoni, chilli flakes, and jalapenos? It’s amazing.

      The acidity cuts through the grease really well, and pineapple just works with spice in general. Just look at the multiple curry dishes that use pineapple.

      People only circlejerk about pineapple on pizza to fit in. There’s nothing wrong with it.

        The circlejerk about pineapple on pizza is just a meme, it’s funny to complain about it over and over again, while the hawai pizza has been going strong since at least the 70ies or something while hawai toast kind of disappeared.

          I’m curious, why do you write it “70ies” instead of “70s”?

          The former always makes me say “seventy-ies” as I read it. Kinda funny.

            Ah, probably I mix it up with German where we write 70er where 70 = Siebzig + er = ies

      I’m not attending this pity pizza party to myself feel good.

      Originally pizza didn’t have tomato either, because it only grew was on a still undiscovered continent. Now you can’t but a pizza without. Things change.

        What did the original pizza look like then? Just bread and cheese? Or just bread? How far back are we counting? Originally pizza was just random wheat straws in a field?

        I’m being a little facetious. 😇

          The earliest record is flatbread with cheese and dates. But there has been all sorts. For a while, a common base layer was lard topped with herbs, then the cheese on top of that.

          Even now not all pizzas use a tomato base. And I’m not just talking about American pizzas that use barbeque sauce or something, pizza bianca (“white pizza”) is a style that will forgo tomato sauce for olive oil, lard, or bechamel sauce.

          If you think pineapple on pizza is controversial, I had a bechamel sauce and pear pizza in Naples. Kinda unusual.

            Sounds delicious! Obviously not the pizza we’re all used to but I’d love to try. Interesting history as well.
