So I didn't clutter up the clusterfuck of a Red Market thread...

The hell is wrong with y'all? Watermelon is the shit.

I bet you're one of those terrible people who eats pineapple on pizza, too.

Pineapple and spinach are the only worthwhile toppings from the non-meat options (other than extra cheese of any variety, but that goes without saying). Pineapple belongs on pizza. It's amazing.

I just needed to say this because it's important to me.

Pepperoni, pineapple, and black olives = the pizza of the gods.

One of my favorites is bacon, chicken and pineapple

@wildbaboons Oh that is good, especially with bbq sauce.

A good white pizza with spinach and garlic is fucking amazing and a frequent go-to of mine on the couple meatless days I do a week (these are never particularly healthy days, and so I enjoy them all the more).

ETA: I'm pro pineapple on pizza as well, though usually want to combine it with Canadian bacon and bbq sauce.

My "Diet" pizza: Pesto, chicken, shredded Parmesan, onions and red bell peppers. Seasoned with oregano and sea salt. Tastes best as a wood fired thin pizza.

Add: Y'all are heathens with your pineapple on pizza.

I'd report this topic for abuse if I could. Instead I shall ignore it. Your pizza is wrong. GOOD DAY SIR.

If it ain't Papa Johns BBQ Chicken and Bacon pizza, it ain't good pizza!

Pineapple does not belong on pizza, sauces that are not red do not belong on pizza.

Edit to Add: It is almost as bad not with pizzas as it is with martinis, which for the record have three acceptable ingredients, gin, vermouth, and an olive.

Pepperoni, black olives, pineapple, and jalepeno is delish.

I am all about white pizza with spinach and garlic.
Add chicken and I am totally sold (but am perfectly happy without!).

I'll eat almost anything on a Chicago deep dish, pineapple included.

@rucket

THIS! This so much. Hawaiian BBQ Chicken Pizza!

Seraphim73 · Mar 10, 2018, 4:42 AM

Pineapple pizza with jalapeno slices lurking beneath the cheese: Pain Pizza!

Also, Canadian bacon and pineapple.

Also, pepperoni and black olives.

Also, gyro pizza with tzatziki sauce for dipping.

Also, chicken caesar salad pizza (lettuce is added after cooking, of course).

The near-acidic sweetness of pineapple complements the saltiness of the ham/bacon and the tang of the tomato sauce perfectly. Some people just can't appreciate true art.

Here's my problem with the pineapple: it makes goop out of the rest of the toppings.

The sweetness of the pineapple should complement the ham, but most idiots bake the fuck out of it, which makes the saltiness die. And the moisture of good, fresh pineapple hampers the cheese melting, and there's always too much fucking tomato sauce. Aggravating as shit. Every single time it's ordered from just about any location -- totally, sloppy, sopping mass of shit that'd make better wallpaper glue..

Except the time that I ate it without the cheese. That's when I made my own flatbread pizza with the pineapple and sauce to start with, then pulled it out of the oven at the 7-minute mark to add ham and bacon to it, then put a parmesan-mozza mix on top. Back in for 7 minutes, and took it out. Lovely.

Having it deep dish? Also a different story. Pizza Slut Hawaiian pizza's fantastic: the fluffy dough soaks up a lot of that moisture.

But Papa John's? Fuck Papa John's.

Typically I stick to the carnivore special type pizza's, though often I find myself swapping out for the white sauces. It's an acid reflux thing for me (limiting the amount of stupid no-no things for me at once.)

However, a guilty pleasure is Dominos two topping... BBQ Sauce, Pineapple, Ham.....

Auspice · Mar 10, 2018, 5:36 AM

I remember on one pizza site (it was a local chain) I had a custom one saved called 'the whole hog' that was just every kind of pork topping and no veggies that I'd ordered while high once.

I left it on my profile because it made me crack up laughing every time I loaded up their site from there on out.

@auspice Papa Johns had promotions for whenever the Redskins won a game, so one Monday when I was hungry af, I decided to put in an order. Ended up the promotion was 8 toppings but alas, Papa Johns only allowed a max of two of each topping. So I had 2x bacon, 2x pepperoni, 2x ham, 2x sausage. It was a real dumb pizza lol.

Jennkryst · Mar 10, 2018, 5:42 AM

The answer, of course, is Dominos: BBQ sauce, Philly Steak, and Salami.
