Hey GAF, so I'm as american as the next guy on here, but I do love me some pineapple-topped pizza. I ordered some from little ceaser's last night and it was SO good! The combination of salty and sweet just worked so well for me. So, why can't other people appreciate the ultimate pizza compliment that is pineapple on pizza?

I tried it and I don't mind it. Would never voluntarily order it though.

Mmm, sounds good.
Ay, I love Little Ceasers. They opened up a shop around here and I love it. I think ill order pineapple pizza from there for now on.
It's hard for me to process "Litter Ceasars" and "it was SO good!" being grouped together.
I make my own pineapple and bacon (or ham sometimes, or pineapple and pepperoni) pizza. It's cheaper than buying fast food pizza and tastes so much better. Sweet and savory works really well.

I like sweet and savory together, but if I want something sweet on my pizza I go with caramelized onions or sun-dried tomatoes.
Pineapple is just absurdly sweet, and cooking it makes it even sweeter. I feel like it not only covers up the other flavors in the pizza, but that it also pairs badly with cheese. The only time I really like pineapple in a savory dish is tacos al pastor.
Also, Little Ceasars is horrible.

Dessert pizza sounds great. Sprinkle some cinnamon sugar on the crust, use Nutella as the sauce, add some small marshmallows...baby you got a stew going.
I think the ones little ceasers has is just the right amount of sweet to cheese ratio.
I usually just have pineapple with bacon/ham...but that sounds really good.
See that's what I have. Dont think I have JUST pineapple on there.
S'all good, friend. but I can only guess that the bms in your username stands for bowel movement stoppage if you continue to eat there.
Little Ceasers is a bunch of system clogging low quality dough with bottom shelf dollar store ingredients. I will pray for your digestive system.
Still with you on the pineapple topping though.

Depends on how it's made. Most of the time it's canned pineapple and cheap ham.
But it can made great with better ingredients.
This chef does a great version:

Caramelized onions and peppers with some hot italian sausage. Damn, I'm getting hungry. Unfortunately my road is a sheet of ice, so I'm not going anywhere.
Yah. You need the saltiness of the ham to balance the acid and sweetness of the pineapple. But you need a good char on both to carmelize them for full effect.

Pineapple on pizza is like raisin in cookies: a quick way to ruin something good.

Congratulations, you really deserve it!
I wanted to order a Hawaiian pizza last night but my wife wouldn't let me. Had to get one with vegetables on it. Gross.
Are you against savory items like nuts being put on sweet desserts?
I always get a Hawaiian pizza when my wife is out without me. Tradition.

Pineapples on pizza are alright but it's usually shit-quality canned pineapple and crappy ham. But that same basic concept works really tremendously well in al pastor tacos (marinated shredded pork + pineapple plus onions, salsa verde, etc)
Pork al pastor > Hawaiian pizza. I've made an al pastor pizza on focaccia dough that's to fucking die for (the pork belly rendered out and basically turned the dough into lard focaccia).
Sweet and savory go together pretty brilliantly in Thai food too, for what it's worth.

Because pineapple ruins the rest of the pizza? It's an indecent topping that doesn't know its place. It just spreads its juices all over everything and ruins all that it touches.
PS. Pineapple is disgusting on its own too
