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?

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

    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.

    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).

      The classic is with ham which I loved as a kid but I think now it’s sort of essential to have some pepperoni or salami or something in addition to or instead of ham if having pineapple. It needs that intensity to contrast the pineapple, the grease too, it’s a part of it, mixes with juice from the pineapple and just produces the most “pizza” of tastes, it’s like pure monosogoodium pizzamate. Chicken, I mean it’s probably fine but in general chicken on pizza is pretty dry and bland and it’s doing nothing to compliment the pineapple particularly.

    Just pineapple and ham? I sleep.

    Add seasoned and cured meats? Real shit!

    Culinarily speaking, I think the mix of sweet and savory is a criminally underutilized combo.

      I completely disagree. Saw a dude who used to make ice cream with state trees just do a video about making bread with pine needles. He said it was amazing.

      And if you never tried making your own soda, grab some pine needles and mix with water and sugar in a pressure safe vessel for a couple days and you get something not all that dissimilar from sprite.

    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.

    It looks good!

    My family regularly ordered Hawaiian pizzas at parties growing up before I ever heard of it being some sort of food controversy.

    Haven’t seen sausage as part of that combo before but it seems like a nice, filling choice to balance out the rest 😄
