Uproar over chef in Italy offering pineapple on pizza...

[caseydog]

I'm thinking prosecution and a long prison sentence are in order.

I wonder if he serves it with a side of Ranch dressing for dipping.

People like sweet n savoury. That’s all cheese and pineapple is..

although I would rather it was banned than I ever had to eat it, especially the one in that pic

I'd give that one a try (without the ranch dressing, of course ). Why not? Cheese and pineapple pair very well together. same as pineapple and ham, or pineapple & pork!

I also find it interesting that it looks like a gimmick, or theme, restaurant in Italy..especially with the ketchup also.... I think he is basing this on attracting the curious and fun loving...they can be pretty serious and staunch about their food over there..

Yep, my first thought was it’s marketing.

I have no problem with this, because he took the tomato sauce off, which has always been my contention with Hawaiian pizza - pineapple and tomato clash horribly, IMO.

Like karadekoolaid, that’s just pineapple and cheese (and a little bread), which is a classic pairing, especially as a little nosh at cocktail parties - cut that thing up in little squares, put a toothpick in each one, and pour me a martini!

I put pineapple on my pizza. If it good enough for pizza hut ( pan pizza super supreme) it's good enough for me. Lol
