This debate has always been stupid and people love to jump on the band wagon of hating pineapple on pizza.
Truth is, pineapple on pizza is great when caramelized properly. Pineapple balances out saltiness, which is something most people don’t appreciate because most people know nothing about proper balance when it comes to food. Problem is, most places don’t cook the pineapple properly. Of course, pineapple doesn’t belong on EVERY pizza, but the fun thing about pizza is there’s unlimited recipes. You can put ANYTHING on a pizza as long as the ingredients complement each other. One of the best pizzas I’ve ever had was in Madrid and was topped with green apples. Sounds tart, tasted fantastic.
Quoteposting this for emphasis- reminds me of a reel I saw of a Vietnamese American woman attempting to grill a pineapple while stoned and making the caramelized result into a snack to be eaten with Greek yogurt.
"Pineapples belong on pizza" is one of those meme statements I give in situations where I have an option to express my political views (or indicate some level of engagement with US politics) but don't feel comfortable going into policy specifics.
