Once and for all does Pineapple belong on Pizza?

Question

t-8900 · Accepted Answer

I'm the Italian and I say it's fine. The trick is getting the right pineapple and actually ditching the ham in favor of a zesty pepperoni. Sweet and Salty work well together. For such a pizza you must treat it differently and remove a fair bit of the garlic from the sauce and go easy on your spices. Allow the pineapple and pepperoni be the main features while the dough and sauce go for the ride. A good pineapple would be the chunks in their own juice and no syrup. I prefer Dole because I think they are the best for the the pizzas. Also this is coming from a guy who makes his own from scratch.

No, it doesn't "belong" on pizza. But you are free to put anything on pizza as you choose. Just like "pansexuals," I guess you could be free to be "panedibles."

Personally, I'd even eat (dead) cockroaches on pizza, if I had to. It's still pizza.

Pineapple goes on pizza just like tongues go into assholes. It's not for everybody and certainly not me.

jennifer_bloom · Accepted Answer

I love pineapple on my pizza! Hawaiian pizza is always amazing!

OlderAndWiser · Answer

It is a matter of taste. I don't want pineapple on MY pizza but that doesn't mean it can't be on someone else's pizza.

Lliam · Answer

It can be good. I never order Hawaiian pizza. My favorite is pepperoni and chopped garlic. But if I'm someplace where there is a variety to choose from, I might have a slice of Hawaiian pizza at the end as a kind of dessert. Pineapple, Canadian bacon or proscuitto, and red pizza sauce is actually a tasty combination.

FreyaRed · Answer

I wouldn't be too cocky with this question, Ndrangheta, Cosa Nostra and Mafia sent their death squads for lesser misconducts.🤐
Nevertheless no one can control what people are doing in their kitchen with pizza toppings and I love ham and pineapple.🤫😂

Anonymous · Answer

For a while, I lived in a predominantly Italian neighborhood in the northeast. Nope, pineapple was not an option on pizza there.

On Americanized pizza, any topping is okay.

It's like mayonnaise on french fries and steak sauce on a steakhouse steak. However you like your food and whatever you like on it.

I like pineapple and Canadian bacon on a breakfast pizza.

horatiohornblower · Answer

Hawaiian pizza is great. I remember one time a pizza place screwed up and gave us a free Hawaiian pizza. Then while everyone was eating. It was left open. My cat decided to walk in it, lie down on it and munch on it. So, we found out cats like Hawaiian pizza and lost our free pizza in one fell swoop.

rxm_bxl · Answer

It’s honestly just a preference thing. So far all we know for sure is that pizza is a flat base of leavened wheat-based dough, with a sauce (usually tomato sauce) and cheese. Everything else is optional. So pineapple belongs on pizza if you want it there- otherwise the presence of pineapples doesn’t define a pizza.

cth96190 · Answer

Yes, it does.
The history of pizza allows almost anything to be used.
Pizza was a breakfast of the farmers/workers that used leftovers from the night before.
Therefore, all sorts of things would have appeared on a traditional pizza.
If you like pineapple, eat it.

jahaims · Answer

Glad we have influencers like you to ask the hard hitting questions instead of saying something broad that has been asked before just to get maximum engagement with minimum effort. People can eat what they want how they want as long as it's legal.

Apulu_3 · Answer

I personally don't like it because it ruins the creamy and salty texture of cheese and the spices. I think sweet things aren't for pizza. I don't hate those who like it tho.

melanieeeB · Answer

Personally I don't like it but I don't give a shit, if you want to then do... everyone has a different taste

Most other times pineapple is just meh on pizza. Pineapple pepperoni bacon can be a good combo depending on the place if it's saucey. Nice blend of flavors

Once and for all. It will be asked again real soon. Personally, I like pineapple on pizza as long as it isn't smothered in it. A light dusting would be perfect.

andreasderjuengere · Answer

In a country that invented and embraced KFC...
the raping of a poor little innocent pizza should be justified as well.

Out of sheer opposition against
kitchen-censorship,
and in the interest of a
FREE cooking society:
I'll make my next home made pizza with an extra portion of pineapple :P

Eat THAT :)

Astarlessnightsky · Answer

You can eat whatever you want. But historically pineapple wasn't know in italy for a long time, so traditionally it doesn't belong on pizza.

You know what goes on pizza... whatever the fuck you want. There argument solved

genericname85 · Answer

Yes it absolutely does. Cause the origin of pizza is that it's a poor man's dish that uses what you have in the house. So there's really nothing that can't go on a pizza.

HawkPerception · Answer

It definitely does. I believe that something is needed to counteract the savory taste of meat.

roaring20sman · Answer

If you like pineapples on pizza, I’m convinced you’re a psychopath…

BCA6010 · Answer

No. It should be a capitol offense, not just for ruining a perfectly good pizza, but also for consuming a pineapple in any way other than freshly harvested or as a juice.

Two foods I like, but they shouldn't be in the same room as each other.

RichSD · Answer

I finally tried it at age 48 and was surprised that it wasn't that bad. But I still don't think I'd ask for it.

Yes it's delicious. Pineapple on pepperoni pizza is one of m favorite things.

AviatorTom · Answer

I had never heard of pineapple on pizza. And then I spent a couple weeks in Australia where pineapple and capsicum is one of the preferred pizzas. I tried it and liked it.

by the way, capsicum in Australia is a sweet green pepper.

Only if it is with ham. It's other things like chicken or lettuce that don't belong on a pizza.
