I know it's a joke, but just let people enjoy things, you know?

Sweet with salty is hardly an anomaly in the culinary world. Salted caramel anyone? Ham glazed with honey anyone? Basalmic glaze over tomatoes anyone?
I've never understood why people get so worked up over this combo. It's totally rational and, for many, subjectively delicious (which is, like you say, all that matters).
No one freaks out when people order food with cilantro even though it literally tastes like soap to some people. They just say "cilantro is not for me, tastes like soap" and get back to their burger or whatever.

Gifts from weird preferences is the best ❤️

I love pineapple on pizza.
Eating crust first is a war crime.

Eating crust first is a war crime.
To me it's like eating your least favorite candy in a mixed bag first - you're left with the best part last. You have to leave just a bit of it so you can still grab it.
E: Also, if you eat all the crusts last they usually go dry and hard instead of nice and warm when you eat them first or as you go along. Depends on whether the dough is good really.
-
You take a bite of the crust because it's one of those cheese crusts and it tastes like shit if you don't eat it alongside the pizza itself.

Cools faster.

My SO puts ketchup on pizza
-
... There's fucking tomato sauce not even a 16th of an inch below the ketchup. WTF is wrong with them?
-
kill her
!for legal reasons, this is a joke!<
-
I do too. On some kinds of pizza it tastes good. Especially on home made pizza. Hot sauce a well. Really meaty pizza? Tatar sauce baby!
Just try it you conservative under rock dwellers.
-
-
Yep, Agree I also like pretty wierd shit

People, ffs, live and let live
-
It's.... Humor
-
And real life experiences with intolerable people is what humor can be built on. There is no rule on that. Stories can be based on reality.
-
Ok, what is the joke? I think the creator thinks that it’s funny to have an extreme reaction (murder) to a minor infraction (liking the wrong kind of food).
If you (like the creator) believe that the idea of “liking the wrong foods” will resonate with an audience as a social infraction. Well, ffs let people live their lives.
The premise for the joke is obnoxious.

-
Back or front, I've heard of... But eating a pizza from the side!? Lol
Btw pineapple pizza is the best. Tomato juice also rocks. Fight me. Haha
-
Tell that to any Italian and you'll get in a fight, alright.
-
Food purists aren't worth engaging in anyways.
-
Oh no, some Italians are upset about random people enjoying things, sounds like they need to get over themselves.
-
If anyone tells me what food I am allowed to like, they can suck my dick.
-
Based on what I've heard on the Internet, Italians will straight murder you for eating anything other that a meal directly cooked by their grandmother because it's ineffably wrong, and not endowed by the spirit of Italy.
If course, actual Italians I've known are normal people who typically don't care what you eat.
-
Roma pizza is square, what if you get a slice with no crust?
-
If they did they’d be a classist bigot not worth fighting. pizza is peasant food invented not for taste but to not starve. If you’re going to so low to gatekeep fight someone for that, that is definitely on the wrong side of history.

A bite of history:
-
I have never met a person (that wasn't chronically online) in real life that cares about Pineapple Pizza, it's a silly internet meme.
-
What? That joke/meme is way older than the internet. You should meet more people.
-
My entire life I have met hundreds of people that don't mind pineapple pizza, I have been to dozens of school, work, and social functions where there was pineapple pizza, and nobody has ever complained. Literally decades of people eating it without complaining, or not eating it but also not complaining.
I never heard a single human being mention it until it became an internet meme, and the only people that have ever mentioned it IRL were chronically online individuals.
But sure it's me not knowing enough people, what a fucking rude and condescending thing to say.
-
-
I’ve run into too many of them, they are most definitely out there even if you haven’t personally run into them.
-
I know a few in real life. And they can sod right off while I devour my Pizza "Crime Against Humanity". 🍍
-
Well, of course since you don't meet chronically online people IRL by definition.
-
Wait, there are internet memes that are not silly?
-
Cool. Whatever you experience is the only truth. What else do you wanna teach the world today?
-
What a rude thing to say, so nobody is allowed to hold an opinion that you disagree with? Or share their experience if it doesn't agree with yours? Do you not see how hypocritical your statement is, or how needlessly hostile it was presented?
-
-
-
It's funny because literally no one cares.
-
This feels like /r/ComedyNecrophillia material.
-
Pineapple on Pizza - eh
Pasta on Pizza - an evil only adequately punished by perpetual constipation.
-
Mac and cheese pizza.
-
-
This is how it feels when someone doesn’t like how you live your life.
-
I think for me the tartness of pineapple combined with the acidity of tomatoes, is too reminiscent of the flavor profile of bile. It tastes like I threw up a little in my mouth, which is not something I desire to pay for, chew, savor, or swallow.
-
If that's how your puke tastes, you should bottle and sell it.
-
Mmm, delicious butyric acid.

Is that catboy Jerma?

... Did anybody else look at the thumbnail and see Eri from BNHA?

I mean the correct order is the tip with a bite of the crust from one side, then continue to go along that side biting a piece of the crust along with the base pizza. Unless you have something like curry on the side, then you can just not eat the crust at all and use it as breadsticks for the curry.
I'm confused by this comic, because she's literally eating it crust first, which is not the side. And crust first is a 100% qualified way to eat pizza.
Also pineapple is one of the best toppings
-
I usually go with garlic butter or ranch for the crust breadstick, but curry sounds pretty good.
-
Oooh garlic butter is gonna be my next one to try. Pizza and spiiicy spicy curry is my hangover special - leftover curry and make or order pizza and then eat the crusts with the sauce. Garlic butter sounds like heaven though.
E: Tomato soup is also another great one for dipping crusts.

Pineapple is fine, but I wouldn't go out of my way for it. It's the tomato juice that makes this sound truly vile. Also who cares which side of the pizza you bite into?

I will never understand why pineapple on pizza is the one salty/sweet combo most people just can't abide.
To be fair, I don't like basically any salty sweet combo. You can keep your salted caramel and waffles with chicken!
Oh...well I am sorry for you, then. And I will.
Peanut M&M's?
I grew up in a household where I was taught when cooking salty sweet dishes, you should add just enough sugar to the dish so that it tastes different but you can't tell why. Otherwise you've added too much sugar.
You can definitely taste the sweet in Pineapple pizza...
Yeah there are banana curry and kebab meat with bearnaise sauce, the two other Swedish pizza specials, why are nobody talking about them?
What? We don't do kebab with bearnaise! It is its own yoghurt and mayo based sauce, aka kebabsås.
We tend not to mention Swedish pizzas in polite company.
Especially since the origin of pizza is just throw the cheapest left overs on some bread when your broke. taste played a very minor role with the reason it came into existence. So why privileged assholes have to gatekeep a peasant’s solution against starvation over preferential taste is just cringeworthy classism at best.
Bruh, I think you're thinking too deep into this. Some people don't like the flavor profile of pineapple. It likely started as a teasing joke to their friends when they were young and didn't know comedy:
"Eeeewwww pineapple on pizza?! Gross! 😂"
And then the joke just kinda blew up from there because enough people agreed on it.
Then you become an adult and realize people just genuinely like different things. I hate pineapple in general, so I don't get it on my pizza. My husband loves Hawaiian pizza.
I love anchovies, and he can't stand them. He says the "juice" affects the rest of the pizza even when I only get it on my half.
We order 2 different pizzas and everyone is happy.
I don't think either of us (or anyone who still pretends to be shocked that pineapple on pizza is a thing) is "gatekeeping pizza" or shaming poor people from tryna eat whatever they have. It is legit on the same level as. "OMG you use APPLE?!?!? I COULD NEVER!".
It's just harmless teasing.
The buzz around it grew when I was seeing a lot of pizza party's which always ended up with 3 flavours being brought. Margherita, Pepperoni and Hawaiian. So I've always associated the movement being some secret groups' lifeprotip to order Hawaiian do they can eat a bunch of pizza and it's divisive. If your ordering for yourself go nuts. If your ordering for a group, there are plenty of more on-averagr enjoyable options
I dislike pineapple on pizza because most places always do such an awful job. You either get pineapple chunks that are still partially frozen and waterlogs the pie, or you get desiccated husks of fiber. Any salty/sweet combo advantage is totally lost.
Have you considered trying it from a good pizza place?
Uh if the pineapple is still partially frozen, that entire pizza is undercooked
Dude you hang out at the wrong places.
I've literally never had that problem.
I'm not eating anything invented by those Canadians
If you ever bought eggs in an egg carton or cooked with canola oil you’ve been a closet Canadian all along. Ok you may continue with the pearl clutching now
He was a Greek immigrant that had lived in Canada for only around 8 years at that point though.
Meanwhile you miss out on the glory that is Poutine, most Maple desserts, Tortiere, Butter Tarts, Back Bacon (AKA Canadian Bacon), California Rolls (yes I know, but they are Canadian actually), Nanaimo Bars, Caesars,PEANUT BUTTER (No, it wasn't George Washington Carver, he made a type of peanut butter after it was already invented), Chinese Buffets, and Coffee Crisps.
