      Salty, spicy, sweet.

      Step it up one more time with some red onions, red bell pepper, and pepperoncinis. Sometimes I also like hot Italian sausage in that mix, too.

      (It is to be noted I make pizza at home, so I go all out and don’t stop at two toppings. I’m bad at baking so I use this super simple dough recipe.)

      I’m a fan of pineapple, red onion, and black olive. The black olives provide the salty kick you’d get from the meats.

      It sounds weird, but it’s an absolute win.

    Pineapple on pizza isn’t bad, it just feels… disjointed. It’s like I’m happily chewing on pizza, with all the expected flavors and textures. Yum. Suddenly, there’s pineapple there for some reason. It doesn’t mesh with the other flavors. It stands out too much. Pineapple dominates instead of blending in. It’s not that I don’t like it, or that I can’t appreciate the whole “salty and sweet” combination, but there’s no balance or harmony. That’s what I’m not a fan of.

          Like just cheese? It should at least have flavour in the tomato sauce and seasoning no?

          Edit: tbf I have never eaten plain cheese pizza unless you mean margarita which I don’t like either

            With the typical sauce. You’d be surprised how little people are willing to explore pizza.

            In fact, if people say that pizza is their favorite food, they’re almost 100% implying a cheese pizza.

            And I worked at a busy pizza joint across from a college campus. More than 70% of all pizzas were a basic cheese or a very slight variant.

              That’s crazy. I struggle with not adding ‘everything’ when I make pizza at home.
              Ham, chicken, salami, mushroom, capsicum, onion, crushed garlic, pineapple, Italian herbs, a cheese blend, maybe an egg or two, then a drizzle of aioli after it’s cooked.
              Damn, now I’m hungry.

          If you mean margherita… A good margherita is still really tasty, putting the quality of the dough, sauce and cheese on display

              I… I don’t eat domino’s, but you mean something like Quattro Formaggi, right?

              Right?

                  If the cheese is mozzarella, like it should be on a pizza, then that’s a margherita

      Agreed, I don’t hate it, but to me it’s like I’m just eating pineapple and pizza at the same time. I love both, but eating both at once doesn’t add anything for me and I don’t think the tastes go together very well. I’d enjoy either one more on its own.

      I’m willing to accept that there may be good pineapple pizza out there… but the question is WHY? It’s never going to be better than the established greats. Why are people infatuated with an inferior alternative? I don’t know man, but it keeps me up at night

    I wonder if people who hate it are hating it after actually trying it, or they are just instinctually repulsed by the idea itself.

      I like Pineapple jalapeno and pepperoni, but the magic is the pineapple and jalapeno. It almost creates a whole new flavor and it’s awesome.

    Nobody has ever actually given a shit about pineapple on pizza. This is just a dumb pop culture thing like pretending to be bothered by the word “moist” (nobody on earth is actually bothered by it until told to be).

    We don’t have to play along with the machinations of pop culture; we can reject manufactured responses.

      Yeah, sure, but which way do you hang your toilet paper, frontie or backie?

        I actually tear it apart sheet by sheet and stack the sheet for a toilet tower, the most reasonable choice in this debate that definitely matters and should definitely be used as a personality indicator.

          You picked answer C for most of the questions which makes it seem likely you’re someone who likes the ocean, sight, and the central governing body of the Catholic Church and the Vatican City State, And the letter C.

    I wanted to post the “everyone disliked that” meme but I’m clearly in the minority. Perhaps even more so as I love both black and green olives on my pizza 😋

    To each their own! If anyone else likes olives I’ll be over here enjoying my abomination alone.

    The Swedes put sliced banana and curry powder on their pizza. Sounds foul, but it’s legit delicious.

        Seems so. I cannot for the life of me understand how people like things such as salty chocolate or salted caramel

    The important thing is that the pineapple is small chunk sized so that it cools down with the rest of the toppings when it comes out of the oven. I had it once where the pineapple was larger than an olive and because they have so much liquid to retain heat they were still too hot to eat when the rest of the pizza had cooled off.

    I wouldn’t go batshit over pineapple on pizza, but I think it’s the chewy bread + wet and easy to chew pineapple
