    It’s kinda crazy that it took the combined culinary efforts of at least 4 nations to create something genius that would piss off all of those nations.

    Also, pineapple on pizza is fucking delicious, and I will fight over that personal opinion being as valid as it sucking :)

      In Greece, eating feta cheese with watermelon(or melon) is somewhat common. You combine the sweetness of the watermelon with the saltiness of feta. And both things are cold.

        In Italy, prosciutto with melon is pretty common. Sweet and savory as a combination is pretty common. See also: sharp cheddar on apple pie.

        Yup, and it’s yummy as hell.

        Here in the south, and maybe elsewhere, we sometimes add a nice hunk of extra sharp cheddar on top of our apple pie for the same reason. Heck, any number of fruit plates will be served with cheeses, and vice versa.

        Once you get into the sweet, salt, fat, acid combo, it really doesn’t matter what you use to get them.

        To quote a great American show, “pork chops and applesauce”. “Hawaiian” pizza is just a different version of the same basic idea

      It really depends on the quality of the pineapple to me. Sometimes it is dry and it sucks. Sometimes it is kinda melted, which gives a sweet to the pizza without making the texture weird.

      Pineapple, Canadian bacon, pepperoni, red onion, and balsamic drizzle. My recent stroke of genius from the local unlimited topping pizza place.

        Ahhh they’re fucking up. Gotta dice the pines and spread em out a bit more at least, but also ham is the worst meat choice for pine, go chicken or (best) pep, and I highly suggest some jalaps.

          For those who don’t know here is the image for context. I deleted my previous comment for other reason.
