Why is pineapple on pizza so good?

I think you are pretty much not getting it. @Flarelaine wanted to know what the problem was with *wearing* socks and sandals, going outside for two minutes has little to do with that. For all I know, you duck out to get the mail in your bathrobe too, but you probably don't wear your bathrobe to go shopping. People do all kinds of things if they're just going outside for two minutes, but the same thing might not be appropriate for a day's interactions.

I don't really mind wearing socks and sandals outside for a whole day either. I'll just throw the socks in the wash when I get home, not a big deal

/shrug To each their own. I wouldn't wear sandals with most of the long pants I own in the first place -- and anyone who wears socks, sandals, and shorts is obviously doing their best to make the world laugh.

Just leave pineapple pizza alone. There's worse pizzas to snark on. Like casseroles pretending to be a "deep dish" pizza.

Any BBQ chicken pizza is worse.


Wait, Boston Pizza says hold my Keystone Light...

what is italian cheese?
some abomination with "italian" attached on it or real mozzarella?

"Italian" cheese is more than mozzarella, so no idea.

Eating a pizza with stuffing, cranberry sauce, and gravy is far more troubling to me.

Pineapples, Jalapeno (fresh, not the vinegar soaked crap), black olives and a touch of peppers.

On a herb dough (circa Sicilian crust pizza from Pizza Hut in the 90s). You're gonna be in heaven.

Oh yeah. If it's sock weather it's not shorts weather. Those don't mix

[Mistame]

Pineapple on pizza is like ketchup on eggs. It's disgusting. Sweet and savory do not mix. Ketchup, BBQ sauce, etc, are abominations. /twocents

[Rennadrel]

Because it was created in Canada, obviously!

Also, chicken shawarma pizza is the bomb.

The major reason I do not wear sandals is, they are just not very safe. Nothing is protecting your toes and they can easily slip off your foot. Right when you do not want them to.

On topic; I also like the apple pizzas fixed as a desert you can get at some pizza joints.

Yep, same here. For me, sandals are mainly something for having to be out in summer rain or on a beach -- times when soggy socks are what I'm trying to avoid. I don't really wear them in hot weather unless I'm somewhere where huaraches are worth having around because I'm really fair skinned and sunburn easily. Wearing socks to avoid sunburn sort of moots the point of wearing sandals to keep my feet cooler.

I like a pineapple and feta cheese combo. Hell, if be willing to try durian too.

[Powerogue]

Everyone's different. I'm fine with pineapple on pizza yet despise chocolate on fruit for example even though that's apparently really popular.

[shadowmouse]

Just to complicate the question ... what kind of pineapple?

One of the things that I don't like about most pizza with pineapple on it is that it uses cheap, canned pineapple that is way too sweet and cut too thick. It becomes overwhelming.

Fresh pineapple, or at least pineapple that isn't sweetened to the point you'd might as well be adding gumdrops, can be tolerable if it is cut into chunks that are proportionate to the other toppings. If I must eat pineapple on pizza (for example, when it gets tossed on the "everything" option that people order as a compromise), I prefer that it be a spicy pizza or at least one I can douse with hot sauce.

Used to work in a restaurant, there were not many people ordering pineapple on their pizzas. Always found it weird

[PixelFox]

Spicy Italian sausage and pineapple is teh bomb.

Fat starch sweet spice salty tangy juicy unghhhhhhhhhh...

[Muajin76]

You could ask the same question about asian pizzas. *Japan, Korea and China* Both inside the dough and on top of the actual pizza have sweet potatoe paste. Why are sweet potatoes on pizza so good?

[PokeKitty]

Ughhh that flavour to me is kinda awful I dislike it, with cheese and ham is alright, but I never order Hawaii flavour so far.
