Add some vegan meat and people will riot.
Vegan pepperoni and other pizza meats becoming standard options would be very very nice, shits come a long way, too, I bet it would work
Maybe not in Italy though. There was this whole thing about it and the government banned it lol.
Memetic warfare
to be fair, the pictured does look like a terrible version of a pineapple in pizza.
The biggest issue is the pie having too much water content. You need to drain and press dry the line apple or it will turn into a soupy mess. Also, rings are 100% not the way to go. Need to slice those bad boys up into smaller pieces. Also pineapple does something special to the flavor of mottzarella.
My barometer for a pizza place is a jalapeno pineapple, do fight me if you don’t think pineapple belongs on pizza.
Well it’s a bianca which does seem a little off to me to just remove the sauce element entirely but it seems like he went for just the pure ‘salty and sweet’ play and I think it could work. He grills the pineapple rings to eliminate moisture issues. Overall I think this would be a good pie but the tomato seems so crucial to the whole thing working, but maybe that’s only when ham is in play.
Edit:
As an aside, a recipe for a good party food is to core and hollow out a half pineapple, leaving some meat on the skin, then chop the remainder and lightly brown in a pan with cubed ham, cherry tomatoes and pizza seasoning of your choice (basil is great here), then throw it all back into the pineapple with those little mozzarella balls and broil the whole thing. Serve it with crusty bread. It bops.
Pineapple belongs in a dessert, not on a pizza. You’re patently wrong and you know it.
There are dozens of us who will fight for the righteous cause in the holy pineapple wars. The evil non-believers must be vanquished!
Pineapple works best on a white pizza base tbh. Tomato and pineapple are eh. Still enjoyable but not as good as pineapple and a boatload of cheese.
As far as pineapple on pizza goes, I am firmly Team [LOREM IPSUM] and absolutely will 1v1 anyone irl over it.
very important article about how italian food snobbery is completely made up: https://www.ft.com/content/6ac009d5-dbfd-4a86-839e-28bb44b2b64c
In this same house, in the 1980s, Nonna Fiore once served some English guests lasagna, per my uncle’s request. The lasagna was cooked from frozen, her story goes. Life was busy and, anyway, she had no qualms about serving a supermarket ready meal; people could only dream of such a luxury during the war. None of the guests suspected that she hadn’t made it from scratch and everyone was delighted, her Italian son included. She reminds me of this, then looks up at me and winks.

Bullshit. Did this author ever try a 1980s frozen lasagna? They absolutely could tell, they just didn’t want to offend her.
