I will never understand why pineapple on pizza is the one salty/sweet combo most people just can’t abide.
I dislike pineapple on pizza because most places always do such an awful job. You either get pineapple chunks that are still partially frozen and waterlogs the pie, or you get desiccated husks of fiber. Any salty/sweet combo advantage is totally lost.
Have you considered trying it from a good pizza place?
The hunt is constant. See my other response.
I’ve literally never had that problem.
Especially since the origin of pizza is just throw the cheapest left overs on some bread when your broke. taste played a very minor role with the reason it came into existence. So why privileged assholes have to gatekeep a peasant’s solution against starvation over preferential taste is just cringeworthy classism at best.
Bruh, I think you’re thinking too deep into this. Some people don’t like the flavor profile of pineapple. It likely started as a teasing joke to their friends when they were young and didn’t know comedy:
“Eeeewwww pineapple on pizza?! Gross! 😂”
And then the joke just kinda blew up from there because enough people agreed on it.
Then you become an adult and realize people just genuinely like different things. I hate pineapple in general, so I don’t get it on my pizza. My husband loves Hawaiian pizza.
I love anchovies, and he can’t stand them. He says the “juice” affects the rest of the pizza even when I only get it on my half.
We order 2 different pizzas and everyone is happy.
I don’t think either of us (or anyone who still pretends to be shocked that pineapple on pizza is a thing) is “gatekeeping pizza” or shaming poor people from tryna eat whatever they have. It is legit on the same level as. “OMG you use APPLE?!?!? I COULD NEVER!”.
It’s just harmless teasing.
You can speak for your experience with pizza snobs, I’ll speak on mine.
I’m not eating anything invented by those Canadians
If you ever bought eggs in an egg carton or cooked with canola oil you’ve been a closet Canadian all along. Ok you may continue with the pearl clutching now
Meanwhile you miss out on the glory that is Poutine, most Maple desserts, Tortiere, Butter Tarts, Back Bacon (AKA Canadian Bacon), California Rolls (yes I know, but they are Canadian actually), Nanaimo Bars, Caesars,PEANUT BUTTER (No, it wasn’t George Washington Carver, he made a type of peanut butter after it was already invented), Chinese Buffets, and Coffee Crisps.
The buzz around it grew when I was seeing a lot of pizza party’s which always ended up with 3 flavours being brought. Margherita, Pepperoni and Hawaiian. So I’ve always associated the movement being some secret groups’ lifeprotip to order Hawaiian do they can eat a bunch of pizza and it’s divisive. If your ordering for yourself go nuts. If your ordering for a group, there are plenty of more on-averagr enjoyable options
I know it’s a joke, but just let people enjoy things, you know?
My SO puts ketchup on pizza
… There’s fucking tomato sauce not even a 16th of an inch below the ketchup. WTF is wrong with them?
For my metric bros, ¹/16" is equivalent to 1 ⁴⁷/80 mm
1^47 is still just 1
1 and 47 80ths 1 ⁴⁷/80 not 1⁴⁷. Maybe formatting is inconsistent across Lemmy viewing methods though.
Try 1 ⁴⅞₀ᵗʰˢ maybe?
Yes, but ketchup and tomatoe sauce taste different
tomato sauce is not ketchup.
I do too. On some kinds of pizza it tastes good. Especially on home made pizza. Hot sauce a well. Really meaty pizza? Tatar sauce baby!
Just try it you conservative under rock dwellers.
I love pineapple on pizza.
Eating crust first is a war crime.
Yep, Agree I also like pretty wierd shit

People, ffs, live and let live
Especially since the origin of pizza is “let’s just use up what is left in the fridge cuz we’re broke”. it’s the elitist gate keeping asshole who deserves all the shame in this scenario
But did the Italians back then have fridges and pineapples?
Not all food that gets cooked on a pizza needs a fridge. But either way you’re skipping the point. it’s literally leftovers combined, with or without a fridge. Probably even more so without a fridge if food goes bad faster.
The point is it’s a peasant food made of literally anything because scarcity.
So in all fairness to to the benefit it provides there should be no rule that there has to be a pineapple or not.
It’s… Humor
Ok, what is the joke? I think the creator thinks that it’s funny to have an extreme reaction (murder) to a minor infraction (liking the wrong kind of food).
If you (like the creator) believe that the idea of “liking the wrong foods” will resonate with an audience as a social infraction. Well, ffs let people live their lives.
The premise for the joke is obnoxious.
The joke is that eating pizza backwards is one step too far.
And real life experiences with intolerable people is what humor can be built on. There is no rule on that. Stories can be based on reality.
Back or front, I’ve heard of… But eating a pizza from the side!? Lol
Btw pineapple pizza is the best. Tomato juice also rocks. Fight me. Haha
Tell that to any Italian and you’ll get in a fight, alright.
Oh no, some Italians are upset about random people enjoying things, sounds like they need to get over themselves.
Based on what I’ve heard on the Internet, Italians will straight murder you for eating anything other that a meal directly cooked by their grandmother because it’s ineffably wrong, and not endowed by the spirit of Italy.
If course, actual Italians I’ve known are normal people who typically don’t care what you eat.
Roma pizza is square, what if you get a slice with no crust?
That’s different because they’re is no right answer
If they did they’d be a classist bigot not worth fighting. pizza is peasant food invented not for taste but to not starve. If you’re going to so low to gatekeep fight someone for that, that is definitely on the wrong side of history.
A bite of history:
I have never met a person (that wasn’t chronically online) in real life that cares about Pineapple Pizza, it’s a silly internet meme.
I know a few in real life. And they can sod right off while I devour my Pizza “Crime Against Humanity”. 🍍
I’ve run into too many of them, they are most definitely out there even if you haven’t personally run into them.
Cool. Whatever you experience is the only truth. What else do you wanna teach the world today?
What a rude thing to say, so nobody is allowed to hold an opinion that you disagree with? Or share their experience if it doesn’t agree with yours? Do you not see how hypocritical your statement is, or how needlessly hostile it was presented?
Well, of course since you don’t meet chronically online people IRL by definition.
Wait, there are internet memes that are not silly?
It’s funny because literally no one cares.
This feels like /r/ComedyNecrophillia material.

Pineapple on Pizza - eh
Pasta on Pizza - an evil only adequately punished by perpetual constipation.
Mac and cheese pizza.
I think for me the tartness of pineapple combined with the acidity of tomatoes, is too reminiscent of the flavor profile of bile. It tastes like I threw up a little in my mouth, which is not something I desire to pay for, chew, savor, or swallow.
Mmm, delicious butyric acid.
Pineapple is fine, but I wouldn’t go out of my way for it. It’s the tomato juice that makes this sound truly vile. Also who cares which side of the pizza you bite into?
