You don't mix your sweet and savory foods

You don't. Lots of people do. Sweet and savory is an awesome combo. Sweet is not only for desserts. That's limiting yourself. Food is suppose to be creative. You don't limit yourself to what your heard like once on tv or something. And to be honest, other than right now, I have NEVER heard of sweet and savory not being a good combo. Where did you even hear that?

I can tolerate pineapple on pizza but I would rather get better toppings. There are so many better toppings for pizza than fucking pineapple. It's kinda like how I can tolerate ketchup with fries but I'd much rather have bleu cheese or garlic mayo

I'm not saying it's the best. Personally, I like it, but I rarely get it. And I almost never order it myself. But I have no problem with it. I'm more of a meats and cheese kind of guy, anyway.

I swear, it's like a bunch of memes encouraged people to be against Chicago pizza. It's, by far, the best in the country. You guys are lunatics who have no idea what you're talking about. Fuck off.

It is basic taste bud science, you like pinapple on pizza because you like pinapple, not because you like the combination of them together. That is all you taste on the pizza. Pinapple is overpowering the taste of the pizza because that is what sweet things do to savory foods.

There is plenty of room for experimentation in foods, but you also have to recognize when something works and creates a new experience and when something doesn't and just masks the flavor of everything else.

Actually, I don't eat pineapple on it's own much. Almost never. It's ok. But I just like it on a pizza. I don't understand why you don't understand that. Sweet and savory is a combination that people actually like. Lots of recipes out there for sweet savory stuff. And it's not all I taste on the pizza. It also depends on how they make it. Most people who make pizzas and actually know how to make a good pizza wouldn't put too many pineapples. Sweet and Savory is a great combo, but you also have to know how much of each to balance it out. Like any food combo.

You say there's plenty of room for experimentation with food, but also have to recognize when something works. But you also can't say something doesn't work just because you don't like it. All that means is you don't like it. But there are a bunch of sweet/savory combos that people love. Especially Hawaiian Pizza. TBH, I don't even hear may of the people that ate Hawaiian say that hate it because of the taste. A lot of them seem to have never tasted it and says it's bad for the sole purpose of having a fruit on pizza. When a fruit is a big part of pizza in the first place for most.

In the end, I don't think it's you like it on pizza just because you like it. If that were true, I'd be putting all kinds of weird stuff on pizza that didn't make since. Or didn't taste good just because I liked it. And a lot of those would go well with pizza.

I had some NY style for lunch today, was great! I also like this place because they refuse to put pineapple on their pizza.


Lol @ being this upset and stuck up about what somebody wants on their pizza.

Right?

Protest all you want, the pizza is great and they always have a line out the door.

They are basically the Soup Nazi of pizza places, they even have a signed picture of the Soup Nazi hanging above the check-out counter.


i would get a pizza there and then put pineapple on it in front of them

Just setup a stand outside of their shop selling pineapple. Take advantage of the void in the market.

This, if you disagree you're just being an Elitist Food Nazi asshole because you can't accept someone liking something you don't.

Also, even though this doesn't seem to be true, what would be wrong with it, anyway. If someone like pineapple on a pizza because they liked pineapple, why would that matter? Anyway, not like it matters. I just wanted to add that, as well...

I don't think this is accurate. I love pineapple by itself. fresh pineapple is amazing. also, I can kind of appreciate the taste of pineapple + ham + mozarella cheese. but when it comes right down to it, I enjoy pizza a heckuva lot better if the pineapple is just removed altogether.

pineapple is just basically counter to how "normal" pizza tastes. it's the clash of tastes that I think people don't like, not the fact that they don't like pineapple itself.

You don't mix your sweet and savory foods, that is cooking 101. Sweet is for deserts, not main courses.

I just think it's weird that people act like it's the worst thing ever. Pizza, like all foods, is like art. It's has room for so much creativity. Why should it matter if someone wants to put pineapples on a pizza? People make all kinds of pizza these days. Chicken cordon blue pizza, philly cheesesteak pizza cheeseburger pizza, spinach artichoke pizza, and so many more. But pineapple, something basic and actually tasty, on a pizza is what stops the creativity. That's idiotic. I'm not saying the pizza is bad. I just wouldn't buy because I don't like limited my pizza options. I would rather go to a place with more options than a place where they refused an item because they don't like it.


The thing about all those pizzas that you described is that they are savory. That is the key difference, pineapple is a sweet food. You don't mix your sweet and savory foods, that is cooking 101. Sweet is for deserts, not main courses.

Pineapple is great on it's own, I love it in fact. Probably one of my top fruits. But putting it on a pizza overpowers the flavor of the pizza because that is what sweets do. Sweets need to be put with other sweets.


wrong.

pepperoni, pineapple and jalapeno is my favorite pizza. the jalapeno and pineapple balance eachother.

also, not all pineapple is the same level of sweetness
