Why is pineapple on pizza so controversial?

I don't know. I've never had a problem with it and I don't understand the people who treat it as sacrilegious

Because it's the best pizza, but it's not invented by the italians, so they're trying to give it a bad name.

[Anonymous No.10557909]

>>10557886
Because it is enraging how adamant people are that a cooked fruit that is both sweet and overpowering in taste belongs on a pizza. It boggles the mind how such a large number of people can be so wrong and have such poor taste. It is almost beyond reasoning, making it a contentious issue. People that enjoy it have usually never had a nice pizza in their life and are probably from lower class families so they stay convinced they are right.

Because small-minded people love to have opinions about things, because it's the normie version of a meme so everyone can get behind it and feels "in" on the joke, and because it's simplistic and meaningless enough that they can grasp it while still fulfilling their desire for categorization and emotions á la "all people who.." and "you monster, I hate..".

The whole thing has absolutely nothing to do with taste or tradition, it's just a plug for mass psychology.

You can tell pineapple on pizza is a terrible thing because people never put cheese on pineapple
They never put pineapples in tomato sauce in other dishes
If those things really went together in any way, you’d see them combined outside of pizza
If you put pineapple on pizza, you have bad taste, that’s all

Exactly, well done admitting you are a manchild. Chocolate cereal, and to be honest most cereal in general, is meant for children. You're meant to stop eating such huge amounts of sugar for breakfast when you grow up and switch to wheat/bran based cereals if you have to have it at all.

and it's not like numales don't love their sugary breakfast cereals anyway, you're getting left behind, old man

there is nothing wrong with pineapple on pizza if you don't use shitty oversweetened canned pineapple and get it properly roasted by putting it on the pizza when it's warm before putting it in the oven

the problem with people who hate pineapple on pizza is that they've only gotten it from Pizza Hut or Dominoes or other child/manchild-oriented chains that use sweetened canned pineapple instead of normal fresh pineapple or at least pineapple tinned in its own juice or simple water instead of syrup

if you get pineapple on pizza and the pineapple isnt browned and slightly dry, it's been made wrong. most chain pizza places make it wrong. probably because theyre american and can only think in terms of memes and processed goods and can't be bothered to figure out why anyone ever put pineapple on a pizza in the first place

No, he's right. Cereals are just sugars and carbs. Most adults eat oatmeal for fibre and carbs or a piece of toast with some eggs for all around goodness.

this pretty much.

I also think it has to do simply with how sweet sugary tasting things like pineapple and most fruits don't mix well with something like pizza. Maybe somepony will correct me here and say there's more science to pineapple, but if you accept that pineapple is a good topping for pizza then you probably might think apple, orange, and strawberries would also make good toppings for a pizza.

Yes, sugared cereal isn't healthy. Fucking everybody knows this. But all of us do hundreds of unhealthy, wussy things every day. Picking out cereal to get the high ground over "manchildren" is the definition of projecting over low self-esteem.

Maybe in 2011. People aren't memeing it for the sake of it, they genuinely can't understand why people like it and with good reason. It is not a good flavour combination and it's been hated for a very long time. Enjoy it when you're a kid sure, then grow up and eat a proper pizza

[Anonymous No.10558470]

>>10558434
these are easier to answer though
>Why is bbq chicken on pizza so controversial?
it's not controversial, but bad texture, and usually acocmpanied by extra bbq sauce, which makes it too wet
>Why is alfredo sauce on pizza so controversial?
as above, too wet
>Why are potatoes on pizza so controversial?
too much starch and potatoes don't add much flavor; may as well make a dedicated potato+cheese+sauce dish, of which many exist
>Why are hot dogs on pizza so controversial?
hot dogs are for plebs; sausage on pizza is downright common, and pepperoni is already basically just really big spiced sausage
>Why are skittles on pizza so controversial?
it's pineapple, but demonstrably even worse a pairing, and the texture would just not work

Let's talk about the tragedy of Pineapple on pizza.

Pizza is primarily composed of a bread crust, a savory/sour sauce, and very rich cheese.

In this form the Cheese Pizza is pretty well balanced, and likeable.

In US food culture, the damning of sugary sweets and things has caused us to associate junkfood with sweet flavors. Even extremely healthy foods with sweet overtones, such as yams and carrots, are frowned upon if taken to their sweeter extension.

Putting pineapple on a pizza adds a distinct sweetness that therefore, is generally unwelcome. It is as bad as sprinkling cinnamon-sugar on the pizza.

This is a bit unfair, though. While overcooked pineapple is indeed quite sweet, the proper application is paper-thin slices of RAW pineapple - a sparky, sour flavor that melds well with the sharp of the tomato sauce and carries a very different flavor identity.

When mixed with an equally overwhelming fatty/spicy flavor, you can have something amazing. Paper thin slices of raw pineapple, red pepper flakes, and Canadian bacon is a heavyweight pizza that few can refuse.

But more often we see the pizza shoveled full of overcooked, saccharine pineapple, and a few pieces of Canadian bacon, and no red pepper in sight. A masterpiece it isn't!

Remember your composition, my /ck/ friends!
