Hit or Miss: Does Pineapple really belong on pizza?

1 min read

pizza

It’s become a bit of an internet joke – a memetic bit of nonsense that gets shared about on the internet. And that’s exactly how I treated it, joking suggesting that for this week’s Hit or Miss we talk about whether or not pineapple actually belongs on pizza. Expecting a chuckle, and for the team to move on to something a little more serious, it ended up being a heated discussion about pizza toppings that lasted for way longer than any discussion about the stuff that goes on top of a disc of bread covered with cheese rightly should.

Sure, it diverged a little, and moved on to whether or not Debonairs can even rightfully be considered pizza – but it all started with that sweet and sour tropical fruit.

While it’s a little more accepted here in South Africa than in much the rest of the world thanks to the Hawaiian being a firm favourite for decades, there are many people who can’t even fathom the thought of pineapple being a worthwhile topping on pizza. They’re convinced that just by having the fruit in proximity of a pizza is enough to ruin the thing, making it inedible even if the offending fruit is picked off.

The Hawaiian is immeasurably popular not just here in South Africa, but also in Australia where it accounts for 15% of all pizza sales. Funnily enough, it was invented in Canada – so you can blame the folks with the maple leaf on the flag if you hate it.

Tell us though, what do you think of pineapple on pizza? If you hate us, tell us what your favoured toppings are.

        I know someone who hates avos. He also hates eggs but loves bacon.

        I don’t understand. What does he do for breakfast or pizza?

    I like banana & ham. Pineapple, not so much. Not because it doesn’t belong on pizza, but because I simply don’t like the actual thing.

    However, if you do like the taste, why not have it on pizza? Seems like a good mix for a nice sweet & sour flavour. Add some bacon and balsamic onions, and you have a winner (I do this with banana instead). Oddly, I don’t like banana on its own.

    Depends on the pineapple used. If it’s fresh it generally tastes good on pizza. If it’s that freeze dried, preserved to hell and back crap they usually use then NO!
    We don’t do takeout pizza’s anymore. Expensive and the toppings are very disappointing. We make our own – it tastes way better and you get to put whatever you want it.

    Ok, how is this.

    I hate pineapple on Pizza. Finished. I like meat on pizza.

    My little girl, 3, is allergic to cows milk and does not like goats or sheep milk cheese. Yet.

    She loves a pizza with no cheese, bacon and Pineapple. She does not eat the pineapple, really, at all.. We noticed that her pizza is moister and the base is that little bit nicer with the pineapple on, even if she does not eat it.

    So, in summary, used to give its juices to the Pizza with no cheese, but no eaten.

      Interesting. That may have to do with the bromelain (an enzyme in pineapple that works really well as a meat tenderiser) acting on the gluten in the base. Bromelain breaks down protein, and gluten happens to be protein.
