Hey Everyone,
Well, we'll see how this goes. My genius (perhaps slightly dyslexic) brain originally typed out, "Why is Pizza on Pineapple SO Controversial?"
Yeah, the thinking cap is a little backwards this morning.
We all know the infamous controversy about pineapple as a topping on pizza:
BUT, I've always wondered exactly WHY it's so reviled. Is it because:
* Pineapple is a fruit, and fruit should never be on pizza.
* Pineapple is sweet, and sweet shouldn't be mixed with a savory food.
But if this is true, what about things like sweet and sour? Why does one combination work and not the other?
* Is there something just inherently evil about pineapples? Is pineapple somehow a fruit of the devil?
* And (the reason I'm posting this in the Family sections.) if/when your family members disagree on toppings, how many different pizzas do you have to order so everyone is happy?
I have some family members who like a few "unconventional" pizza styles, such as yes, the infamous pineapple, along with BBQ chicken (my least favorite of the ones they've tried,) all-vegetable, and "white" pizza, usually involving spinach and sometimes artichokes. Sometimes when I go to visit, that might be all they've fixed or ordered, so I've learned to not be very picky-- or chances are, I won't get fed. (And don't we ALL show up when a free meal is involved?!)
Whether you think pineapple on pizza should be beloved or bemoaned, it's time to square off!! 🥊
Leave your thoughts, comments, and reasons as to why YOUR opinion is RIGHT (because that's what we do here on the forum,) and tell us why the opposing side is COMPLETELY WRONG (obviously!)
