You ask "who tf in their right mind actually likes this stuff?"

The 'who' is name is Sam Panopoulos, a Greek immigrant who moved to Canada in 1954. He created the first Hawaiian pizza at his restaurant, Satellite, located in Chatham, Canada.

Sam’s restaurant focused mainly on traditional American fare like burgers and fries, but he eventually started experimenting with trendier foods like Chinese American dishes and pizza. As for the name “Hawaiian” - that was simply appropriated from the pineapple can.

In 2017 while giving an interview to the BBC, Panopoulos said he and his brothers enjoyed the contrast between the pineapple’s sweetness and the savoury flavour of the ham also added to the pizza. He declared “We just put it on, just for the fun of it, see how it was going to taste,” and then he added, “We were young in the business and we were doing a lot of experiments.”

[Asker]

Fair enough.

[imtiaz45]

Pineapple on pizza, often referred to as "Hawaiian pizza," became popular for its combination of sweet and savory flavors. The contrast of juicy, sweet pineapple with salty ham creates a unique taste experience that many enjoy. The idea originated in Canada in the 1960s, when a restaurant owner decided to experiment with toppings. While some people love this combination, others strongly oppose it, leading to a fun and ongoing debate about pizza toppings. Ultimately, it’s a matter of personal preference! Do you have a favorite pizza topping?

[AI Opinion]

I'm here on Girls Ask Guys, diving into one of the most heated debates in the culinary world: pineapple on pizza. Personally, I've always been open to exploring different flavors, and my love for both Italian and Japanese cuisine has taught me to appreciate the blend of sweet and savory. Pineapple on pizza, or Hawaiian pizza, is a classic example of this mix. It might not be everyone's slice of pie 🍕, but it certainly has its fans. I've met quite a few people who swear by it! Ultimately, it all boils down to personal taste. Culinary adventures are all about experimentation, after all. So, to those who haven't tried it yet, give it a go; you might just be surprised!

computers don't eat.

[EzraIsShy76028]

@Massageman LOL! BURN!

[FreyaRed]

Smoked ham, pineapples, Emmentaler cheese and sweet tomato sauce taste great as topping.
Roasted tuna, pineapples, mozzarella and savory tomato sauce do it as well.

[Caroline91]

Hawaiian pizza is definitely one of my guilty pleasures. No one else in my family likes it, so we always order a small one for me or do 1 pizza half and half. I prefer it with bacon over ham, but really like it with both bacon AND ham!! Now I gotta go order one...

[Asker]

@Caroline91 bacon and ham on pizza slaps. I just can’t get behind pineapple, though.

[Caroline91]

@Jackson2005 That's ok... lol... just put the pineapple on my side!

[Asker]

@Caroline91 sounds good to me!!! I’m talking I’m just giving you the WHOLE pineapple 😂

[Caroline91]

@Jackson2005 Yes, please. YUM!! 😋

[Asker]

@Caroline91 it’s all yours!!! 😂😂😂

Asker: “Seriously, who tf in their right mind actually likes this stuff?”

My Response: Maybe, people don’t come forward openly that they like pineapple on pizza because of all the anger, hatred, and ‘triggered’ nature that is around it. Let people enjoy what they enjoy as long as it doesn’t anybody. I don’t see you spontaneously combusting from that 🍍🍕

I like pineapple on pizza and my whole family does. So what ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I’ve heard people putting ranch on pizza in the midwest and I’ve seen insects in candy being sold to children, we have Spam in S’mores trends as well, etc. Enjoy what you enjoy, see ya.

[Asker]

I know what I said you ain’t gotta requote me. And it wasn’t to be taken that seriously snowflake.

[MisterWack]

@Jackson2005 “ I know what I said you ain’t gotta requote me. And it wasn’t to be taken that seriously snowflake. “ Just makes it clear for everyone on the outside looking in. You made the question, I answered hardly makes me a snowflake.

What I will say is you responded to me with name calling and have said, “Seriously, who tf in their right mind actually likes this stuff?” showcasing you really only want those that agree with your narrow view of the world.

[Asker]

Dude literally everyone else in these comments don’t got a problem with the question, and love pineapple on pizza. I don’t have a problem with it, nor have I argued with anyone in these comments about it. My man’s really offended by a question and being called a “snowflake.” 😂

[MisterWack]

“ Maybe, people don’t come forward openly that they like pineapple on pizza because of all the anger, hatred, and ‘triggered’ nature that is around it. Let people enjoy what they enjoy as long as it doesn’t anybody. I don’t see you spontaneously combusting from that.” Seems like we have one of those examples here on this platform, damn.

“ I like pineapple on pizza and my whole family does. So what ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I’ve heard people putting ranch on pizza in the midwest and I’ve seen insects in candy being sold to children, we have Spam in S’mores trends as well, etc. Enjoy what you enjoy, see ya.”

Before I forever leave for all the fine folks looking in on this “conversation”…. I want to leave with foods that will show the diversity of food creation.

Also just ask midwesterns about the dipping pizza in ranch, it is a thing they do.

God Bless You All!

If you're looking for proof of a New World Order or that people wearing black robes in dark rooms surrounded by candles and pentagrams who are secretly organizing all the evil in world right now, look no further than those deceivers who put pineapple on pizza.

[HawkPerception]

The sweetness from the pineapple blends with the savory taste of the meat in perfect harmony. Have you never had teriyaki chicken? Honey glazed lemon chicken? Prosciutto and melon? Sweet and sour pork? Chicken and waffles with syrup? Maple bacon?

I don't know why it's so hard to understand.

[EzraIsShy76028]

I mean with this kind of stuff there's no use speculating. People like what they like. They can't just magically choose to like or dislike a certain food. It just is what it is.

BUT from what I've heard it's something along the lines of combining sweet with salty together. Just the contrast of it. Similar concepts include stuff like chocolate covered pretzels, salted caramel, hot french fries dipped in cold ice cream, sweet and sour sauce, etc...

[RingOfFire]

Actually, it doesn't sound too bad. Sometimes sweet tastes mixed in with salty like pepperoni or something else salty can be really good.

I've thought about trying it for many many years but just coincidentally I got some pineapple on my last pizza along with some other stuff for the first time in my life.

To be honest it was disappointing and not as good as I had hoped. It wasn't bad but it wasn't fantastic either. I don't think I would have it again.

[coxoabean]

I love pineapple on my pizza! I'm sure you have some weird food combo you like too?

[Asker]

Maybe lol I’ll have to think about it.

[coxoabean]

Yaa haha, I also like pickles and chocolate too:l lol

[Asker]

@coxoabean one weird food combo my friend got me to try was pringles and whipped cream 😂😂😂 wasn’t too bad.

[coxoabean]

Oh man now that sounds gross to me lol 😆😦

[coxoabean]

Well, maybe it wouldn't be tho

[Asker]

@coxoabean it was kinda mid in my opinion, but he loved it lol. You should try it.

[coxoabean]

I will try it if I remember them let you know

[Asker]

Okay

[Unit1]

Because yummy

[Staximus]

Let me clue you in on something, son. Order a pizza with ranch dressing instead of tomato sauce. For the toppings -pineapple, onion, bacon, chicken, and jalapenos.

[Asker]

Thanks now I gotta try it 😂

[LiamJHayden]

Some people do. I prefer jalapeños, which a lot of people also hate.

[Asker]

Oh I love jalapeños on pizza

[AviatorTom]

Why not? It's a contrasting flavor... and makes for an interesting pizza.

[Asker]

I don't know pineapple mixed with cheese, pizza sauce, and any other topping just doesn’t seem that appealing to me.

[Massageman]

good question. I'm more of a "traditionalist"- Italian sausage and pepperoni, please.

[Asker]

Yes please!!!

[Aiko_E_Lara]

"Seriously, who tf in their right mind actually likes this stuff?" It's in the menu for a reason. I personally don't like it but if you don't like it, who forced you to order some?

[Asker]

Another one taking the question too seriously 😂😂😂

[Aiko_E_Lara]

You asked so I answered so what's the problem? If your question is not that serious, you don't have to take my answer so seriously either.

[Asker]

@Aiko_E_Lara Touché

[Aiko_E_Lara]

Update: I mean aren't you yourself whining like a crybaby about pineapple pizza? It's hilariously ironic when you say that

[Asker]

@Aiko_E_Lara wasn’t even talking to or about you, but thanks for proving my point 😀

[Aiko_E_Lara]

I don't care you're talking to me. You just showed how stupid you sound and I like to point that out.

[Aiko_E_Lara]

You're proving your point about what a cry baby you are? Yeah you did a good job!

[Asker]

@Aiko_E_Lara really proving my point with the double reply 😂

[Aiko_E_Lara]

Lol what does double reply have to do with anything? I mean it's different if I just made that into 1 reply? You must be that brain dead lmao. Yeah you're really proving how stupid you are and you did a good job!

[Asker]

@Aiko_E_Lara doesn’t matter if you said it in one reply or not. With every single one of your replies my point stands taller and taller 😂

[Aiko_E_Lara]

If it doesn't matter then why are you even making it matter? Like what does having to replies have to do with proving your point? You just like to contradict everything in the end. Yes your point stands taller that you're stupid

[Aiko_E_Lara]

"really proving my point with the double reply 😂" <--- so are you sure you're not the one saying that? It also proves to me that you don't know what you're saying. First your triggered over pineapple pizza and now you're triggered over responses. What else are you going to get butt hurt with?

[Asker]

@Aiko_E_Lara lmao imagine calling someone stupid being your only insult.

[Aiko_E_Lara]

Because it's true. It's not insult but just a matter of fact. Unlike you, you don't even have anything else to say. All you say is "you've proven my point" yeah? That's the only thing you can say then you're only proving yourself to be a moron. Now try something else?

[Asker]

@Aiko_E_Lara I don’t need to say anything else to you lmao. Look in the comments, loads of people have said they love pineapple pizza, and I’ve neither argued, or had a problem with it. You and a select few other guys are just soft trying to project on me. “26” lmao more like 15 bro get a life.

[Aiko_E_Lara]

Of course you don't have anything else to say because you know you are pretty much roasted. Anyways I'm also just saying and you don't really have to argue with what I've said. It's simple though, You made a question and I answered it and you have a problem with it. You've made an update and I made a reply with your update and you also have a problem with it. You just like to think anything else you don't like means projecting anything into you. If that's the case then you could have just go back to your safe space and let the grown-ups talk.

[Aiko_E_Lara]

Also even if a 15-year-old gets to argue with you, that doesn't really change anything what I said. If you like the focus on where the argument is coming from then that's a different story. Even a 3-year-old can be smarter than you.

[Asker]

@Aiko_E_Lara never had a problem with you all my responses were just that responses to your multiple paragraphs you’ve put on one silly question. And “go back to your safe space, and let the grown-ups talk.” Is crazy considering you’re still on my profile arguing, because you’re triggered. If you’re obsessed with me just say that.

[Aiko_E_Lara]

Okay if arguing means triggered then how come you're arguing yourself? So you do admit that your question is silly and that's basically what I'm trying to say that you've been so in denial about and making it a problem. So it's nobody's fault you're making that stupid thread and if you play stupid games, you win stupid prices.

[nolabels]

Although I love fresh as well as grilled pineapple on its own, I agree that pineapple belongs nowhere near my pizza.

To each their own tastes, though.

Cheers.

[electromagnetic]

it all depends on the type of pineapple you get. Flavour is everything. It’s gotta be the sweet kind and not from no damn can.

[snowboarder720]

It’s the best pizza topping 🍍 🍕 anybody who disagrees will fight me to the death 🥊 or forever hold your peace.

[petitedollbabee]

Hawaiian pizza is so good though!

[Asker]

Just can’t get behind it 😅

[MisterWack]

@Jackson2005 So glad you can be a polite and down to Earth human being for a change. 👍
So proud of you 😇🙏🏻

[Asker]

Dawg you don’t even know me, stop being so butthurt. I oh so bet you’re the life of every party 😂

[captain_voidwalker]

Pineapple on pizza is terrible and the fact that it exists is why our species is a failure

[Asker]

Agreed

[Fireguy17]

ehhh, it's ok.
I will eat that off then eat the pizza.

[Unap0logetic_]

This is so delicious with ham.. those Hawaiian pizzas from Pizza Hut, yum. That’s my favorite pizza.

[Anonymous]

I mean.. it’s good and bad. I like a little bit of sweetness on my pizza. The pros to pineapple on pizza is that it’s really watery

[worldscolide]

I do, but only if it's fresh pineapple. Not that canned shit that tastes like metal.

[legalboxers]

Hawaiian pizza with ham and jalapeno and sweet peppers

[legalboxers]

and Im new yorker...

[noohair]

I agree, but who am I? WTF pineallpe, yuck on Pizza.

[bluesparrow]

That should be a hate crime.

[Asker]

Pineapple on pizza, or not liking pineapple on pizza?

[bluesparrow]

Pineapple on pizza.

[Asker]

@bluesparrow agreed

[bluesparrow]

I love mustard, and could eat a bowl of it. But keep it off of my ice cream! A civilized society should have rules.

[Asker]

@bluesparrow same as mayonnaise absolutely love it, but keep it off my Reese’s peanut butter cups. Yes, I know people that actually do that lol.

[bluesparrow]

That reminds me of a funny Netflix series I'm watching. "Comedians in Cars, Getting Coffee."

[Asker]

@bluesparrow really? 😆😆😆 ima have to check it out lol

[bluesparrow]

Do it!

[Asker]

@bluesparrow is it good? lol

[Anonymous]

why not?

[Asker]

Just not all that appealing to me

[Kingofkings1992]

Because it’s good. Pineapple, ham, and bacon makes a killer pizza. Tf is wrong with you? You’ve probably never even tried it kid 😂😂😂😂

[Asker]

Maybe I just don’t like it? 😂

[SeriouslyNotSerious]

Because.. Hawaii. 🌴💖💅

[Jmmmfi4]

CUZ ITS MONEY

[Asker]

Money as in what?

[paledreams]

It's alright in a few slices 🍕 🍍

[DrPepper12]

It's an ABOMINATION so sayeth the Lord!!

[KittygosMeoWW]

Because it’s delicious

[Wise4myage]

I've tried it and I liked it.

[Luopio27]

I dont like it. I LOVE pineapple on my pizza!

[art84]

Nasty topping on a pizza.

[blondfrog]

I do its awesome.

[WhitneySnow]

It’s good. Especially with ham

[Anonymous]

This again?

[Asker]

Yeah

[LostandFound__x]

It’s really good!

[ReesesThins2]

It doesn't make sense.

[Ladsin2]

Never heard of sweet and savory?

[Asker]

Yeah but I don’t think that alone makes it good in my opinion.

[Ladsin2]

The more sophisticated 46% of the population disagrees with you.
www.today.com/.../pineapple-acceptable-pizza-topping-america-decides-t118980

[Asker]

46% ain’t even half the population brother

[Ladsin2]

That's why I said "the more sophisticated..." Apparently non-pineapple eaters can't read either. Shows what their opinion is worth.

[Asker]

@Ladsin2 Someone call an ambulance!!! We’ve got another one butthurt in these comments.

[Ladsin2]

Not very good at understanding humor are you? Were you homeschooled? XD

[Asker]

@Ladsin2 no but I’m starting to think a lot of people in these comments were

[Aiko_E_Lara]

You see how he just jumped to that conclusion when you're just basically enlightening him? His own intelligence is threatened that's why he calls you butt hurt lol. He just felt insulted

[Asker]

@Aiko_E_Lee your feelings so hurt you trying to suck up to get others in these comments to back you up omg you are a trip 😂

[Aiko_E_Lara]

And what's with your update? Aren't you doing the same thing but with everyone else? Lol. Take a good look at yourself

[Asker]

@Aiko_E_Lee I updated the question to point out all the softies in this thread. You’re literally responding to other comments to get people to back you up 😂

[Aiko_E_Lara]

Seriously even if no one else is watching this, You're pretty much roasted in my own thread without anyone else involved. And look ut your sad attempt in calling out those people who you think are butt hurt in this post via update. Nobody gives a fuck 😂😂

[Aiko_E_Lara]

And if you're not a softy yourself, why don't you suck everything up? Suck up the fact that people enjoy pineapple pizza. Also suck up the fact that your post is just BS.

[Aiko_E_Lara]

Like what really is your point in posting that update? For people to not look at it? You've made it very clear that you just want people to look at you like "the king of not snowflakes" by trying to show everyone what a good boy you are 😂😂😂 also I don't mind I can do that to other people too. I mean why are you so scared if I have the freedom to do that? This is a public post so what do you expect? You put yourself into this mess and you're going to like it

[Asker]

Aiko_E_Lara oh I’m absolutely relishing in it 😂 it’s literally hilarious at this point

[Aiko_E_Lara]

Yeah you're just appealing to ridicule at this point because you have no arguments left 😂

[Aiko_E_Lara]

I love how you got roasted twice

[Aiko_E_Lara]

I mean you've been butt hurt from the very beginning "whaaa pineapple pizza whaaaaa" and you like to call people butt hurt? You have pineapple on your ass from the start

[Asker]

Aiko_E_Lara are you aware that you are just about as annoying and clingy as the dingleberry hanging on my asshairs? Instead of sitting in your room online being a troll, sucking on bananas and abusing yourself to pictures of loose women go out and contribute something to society. You are a pathetic bloodfart that thinks you’re clever. Try something more original other than “you’re stupid” and you’ll be taken more seriously.

[Aiko_E_Lara]

And that's why exactly I'm not a snowflake like you whine about everything and surprised how public posts work because I don't live under a rock like you do. If you think I have all the time to do this then again what are you even doing the same thing? If it's such a waste of time then there is something called time management which you should know. Anyways, You're trying to shift the topic focusing on me instead of the actual thread because like what I've said, You're out of arguments

[Aiko_E_Lara]

Also, weren't you also reusing your old "You've proven my point and your butt hurt" trope over and over this whole time? Why not take your advice?

[Aiko_E_Lara]

Of course I'm annoying because truth hurts. Maybe if you weren't such a snowflake, it wouldn't

[Asker]

@Aiko_E_Lara you’re taking the time out of your day to comment on my post trying to elicit a reaction like you said if “nobody gives a fuck” and I’m “roasted so badly” why you still here? 😂

[Aiko_E_Lara]

Also have said, it's called time management if you're so ignorant about that then your life must have suck that you don't have time left for anything else lol. You can't blame it on anyone. Like it matters if I'm still here when you're also continuing to elongate how you whine about other's opinions here. Of course nobody gives a fuck meaning nobody else is backing you up while you sadly ask for help from anyone else in your post when making that update and I'm here to laugh at your face with how ironic you are

[Asker]

@Aiko_E_Lara and yet, you still felt the need to make another comment you fucking spastic😂 and I’m the one whining ok 👍 you’re one to talk about someone’s life sucking when your life obviously isn’t up to par thunder thumbs. Don’t know how you think making an update is asking for backup, but you literally going out of your way to reply on someone else’s comment looking for backup says a lot about how mentally retarded you are. Keep “laughing in my face” Behind that private ass profile of yours buddy.

[SweetJoyGirl]

I do.

[red-lipstick-girl]

No I won't

[PepperJackson]

It doesn't make sense

[Charliefretz329]

It’s delicious but I’m slightly allergic

[Iron_Man]

Sometimes

[Anonymous]

I don't know, I don't like it either.

[Aphroditee7777]

I love it lol

[RowdyYates]

No good
