It's ok if you don't, but if you do, try peaches too!

I think actual Italians wouldn't mind that much. Have you seen the original pizzas? They're mostly fruit.

Oh? Interesting.

What type of combinations would they make?

I saw this meme for the first time nearly a decade ago but it still makes me laugh.

Old but gold. 😃

Mate, they have fucking nutella pizzas in Italy.

i've seen kiwi and banana, personally

Yep,and that's good. Period.

I am compelled. When poor Italians came to the US way back in the day, they were getting jobs where they made a bit more money which allowed them to basically unlock a lot more toppings than they used to use in Italy. They would add all sorts of weird things. I don't recall anyone using pineapple at that time but if they had access to it I'm 100% sure they would've tried bc it matched the spirit of their other toppings ventures. Anyway, pineapple, bacon bits, and jalapeño is a really good combo.

Damn. Don't know whether to upvote for Pic or downvote for the text. My head is spinning.

I don't recall anyone using pineapple at that time...

Vampire spotted!

Might as well leave it neutral. 🤷‍♀️

Peaches you say? I'm gonna have to give that a go because pineapple is unironically one of the best pizza toppings for me.

You don't recall eh, you over a 100 years old?
In all seriousness pineapple on pizza originated in Canada.

Fun fact, “Hawaiian” pizza with pineapple was invented at Satellite Pizza in Chatham-Kent, a small town in rural Ontario, Canada.

Hawaian pizza was "invented" in the 60s in London Ontario area.

One of my grandparents is an Italian immigrant and it’s very much this. Grew up with “here try this” and “have more” because they’d be damned if anyone under their roof went hungry or felt like they had to hold back. They also like all sorts of pizza toppings, because they had to eat nothing but dandelions while hiding from Nazis.

Having grown up poor myself I’m a lot the same way as an adult, too. If someone wants food or drink in my home or while out with me they get it, no questions asked. Adventurousness is encouraged, and a happy belly means I did my job right.

I bet pineapple is better

Pepperoni, pineapple, and jalapeno is also good.

Pizza is already made with fruit as one of its centerpieces.

Pineapple and Ham are a wonderful combination.

They go really well in a tangy sweet marinara on baked bread. Coated in cheese, too.

So yes

One could argue that Tomato is a fruit.

No that's a crime

Your birth was a crime.

Canned or fresh peaches?

Oh were arguing this now? I thought it was like confirmed and done, its a fruit. Pretty cool

I mean we do, but its basically nutella and bread because it's just the dough+nutella

What we really accept here that would make no sense to american is

Wurstel and patatine on pizza
Kebap on pizza (full kebap)
Also seafood

And lived to tell the tale? Impressive!

Arguing against pineapple on pizza is homophobic.

Store bought canned peaches are trash because they can them before they are ripe and this they are just tasteless and crunchy. If you actually can your own peaches they are pretty tasty.

So peaches in season are good but the rest of the year my own canned peaches are great.

It's confirmed and done

First time?

The Hawaiian pizza is a pizza invented in Canada!

I think Hawaiian pizza is one of those foods I've always hated because I had poor experiences with it growing up. Sort of like shepherd's pie, which I only knew of through the abomination served at the high school caf.

But recently, I tried it at a new pizzeria that opened near me. They honestly used real ham like you would get at an Easter banquet. Not the processed sandwich meat. And that was actually really good with pineapple!

Thats what I thought. Thanks TrickDacy

Always happy to solve a mystery.

I prefer bananas🍌. With cinnamon.

I can't tell if people are downvoting this because it's reddit or the title they should actually watch the video it's great

The other way round. Americans are actually quite conservative when it comes to pizzatoppings. Most Americans have never heard of tuna or potatoes as toppings for example. They seem to stick to a handful of different meats, and that is basically it. There is a lot more variety in other countries, and also in Italy in particular.

The last two are pretty standard in Europe, I'd say. But the first one I've never heard of.

Hawaiian pizza, invented by a Greek in Canada!

You mean the wurstel and frenchfries?

We call it Americana and it's ate by children and tasteless people.

Which is based on a German dish, yeah? Toast Hawaii?

I fucking love pineapple on pizza, so long as the pizza is fresh and not frozen.

Peaches come from a can

I think so. Nutella on a pizza make it a giant cookie, and I prefer pizza over cookies.

Nah, I lean optimistic. Upvote but stipulating that's it's for photo!

My favorite pizza was a BLT, now I'm a veggie and make LT pizza with mayo and it's close but not the same. The fake impossible chicken is getting pretty good, but no fake beacon I've tried comes close.

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.

Botanically, yes, cullinarily, no

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.
