It’s ok if you don’t, but if you do, try peaches too!
They cook pineapple incorrectly on pizza. It needs to cook for a long time at a low heat to properly caramelise.
Fun fact, “Hawaiian” pizza with pineapple was invented at Satellite Pizza in Chatham-Kent, a small town in rural Ontario, Canada.
Hawaiian pizza, invented by a Greek in Canada!
If it was invented in Hawaii, it would just be called pizza (in Hawaiian)
And would have included spam.
Hawaiian pizza was actually invented by a Greek immigrant in Canada, oddly enough
Nothing odd about that.
The reason why America has the best food is because of this. Wave after wave is immigrants from all over the world over several hundred years, bringing their food culture, adapting, mixing with indigenous food, feeling free to experiment, and mixing with other cultures.
Just don’t call me out because “Canada”. I love Canada, have a Canada escape plan, and appreciate the differences. It’s that there’s much more culture shock going to various parts of the US than their geographically similar places in Canada.
The reason I called it odd is because a food named after Hawaii is neither invented in Hawaii nor by a Hawaiian
Damn. Don’t know whether to upvote for Pic or downvote for the text. My head is spinning.
It’s funny, my issue with it has always been that they add ham with it. Fuck that, give me pepperoni and some sort of (not shitty green bell) pepper like a jalapeno or banana pepper and pineapple is great.
So I used to be opposed to pineapple on pizza, because I was a prick purist.
Then a friend who got me to try pineapple jalapeño pizza. That sweet and spicy mix changed me, and I’ve become much more adventurous with food in general.
My new outlook on weird food is that if it seems like a weird pairing but is somewhat popular, it’s probably amazing.
Unless it has cilantro. Keep that soapy weed out of my food.
