Food, Drink & Dining Out Pineapple on pizza?

[Whispering_Jack]

It's been discussed throughout the board a bit but I couldn't find a dedicated thread. This was discussed at work today and I was sure that the majority of people would be against pineapple on pizza but the small number of people I asked came up with 80% yes.

I don't get it! Sweet doesn't go with savoury!

 

[M Malice]

NO!

had pineapple on pizza once in my lifetime and was chucking up in the pizza hut toilets soon after, although it may have had something to do with the abhorrent amount of alcohol i consumed prior. can eat fresh pineapple but have never been interested in eating cooked pineapple again.

 

[Gralin]

It gets thrown on too many pizzas these days

 

[Billy ray]

does pizza look like a bowl of fruit salad?

 

[dales.girl38]

No, my boss ordered like 5 pizzas a while ago and every ****ing one had pineapple on it. I still haven't forgiven him.

 

[Shane Sheridan]

Yes to pineapple, no to anchovies

 

[Richard Cranium]

What the hell is going on in here?

The Hawaiian is an institution for a reason, you weirdos.

I was in Sicily and the owner of the restaurant had been to Surfers Paradise for a holiday loved it and put it on the menu.
He heard my Australian accent and served one up to me
I loved it I had been away from home for nearly a year and it was well made.
Its not my fave (margharetta) but its my 1 pizza in 100 alternative. (my wife hates it)

I love pineapple on hamburgers all the time though

If your in hicksville and your starving and there is only 1 crap pizza place run by a bogan, you at least know they cant stuff up the Hawaiian
The pineapple cuts through the spam ham

 

[Crankyhawk]

Yes to pineapple, no to anchovies

WHAT? Anchovies are the reason for pizza IMO, pineapple either way.

Yes but when they start branching out and putting pineapple on other pizzas..

Tastes good

 

[Messenger]

It's an abomination.

Never.

Hawaiian was always a favourite pizza of mine after my mum left home and we had to rely on shitty McCains frozen pizzas for dinner.

"Ah McCains you've done it again"



May as well have bought Coles pizzas.

Sweet doesn't go with savoury... I think you're wrong there. Ever had some mango chutney on a good hot curry?

I don't really care too much about the pineapple thing. If it's there I'll eat it, and sometimes I don't mind it, but I'm not going to be upset if it's not on there.

FWIW the best pizza is generally shit-good pizza. And the kings of that are the Swedes. I once woke up with an all-time hangover after being forced to drink 12 different cans of different beers as they don't do six packs there. Went down to this little pizza stall in Solna and ended up with a kebab on a pizza base. I don't believe in hangover fixes but that got pretty close. Quite gross if you weren't sweating hops but man, great shit.

The Swedes put mashed potato and chips on their hot dogs which is awesome, they do that in Portugal as well, maybe they got it from the Swedes.

The idea of loaded hot dogs and fries is only just catching on here. McDonalds are doing the loaded fries here now.

It's a great idea when you're drunk, put your whole greasy disgusting fast food meal in one pile rather than separating them.

If I want pineapple I will order an Hawaiian. Otherwise no

Anchovies yes please

There was an Asian pizza place just down from me on Brunswick Street and I'd go in there every Sunday as soon as I felt my pussyitus was in decline and I could work, and I'd grab a pizza. Most of the time it'd be a chicken. They put pineapple on that. Sometimes I picked it out but sometimes it actually cut through that mud of barbecue sauce so well.

Similarly related, has anyone noticed some of the best pizza you get in Melbs these days is actually made by Asians?

 

[Gralin]

In Shanghai Domino's put broccoli on the pizza

Hawaiian (or Tropical as some pizza joints now call it) used to be my go to for many many years. Love pineapple to the point where I'd have pine apple on its own .

I have not had Hawaiian pizza on the regular for the last year/year and a half. I might get a Hawaiian pizza every 5-6 weeks. I'm fine with just plain cheese (mr boring!).

 

[Barney_stinson]

Anyone had a cheese pizza whist in America?

5 different styles of cheese. **** me, I couldn't;'t shit for a week after eating that.

I'll have Pineapple over cheese everyday of the week thanks.

So the myth isn't true about pineapple

 

[Frank Bunn]

So you were literally blowing chunks?
