What toppings do you put on your pizza? Is pineapple a real pizza topping?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I actually had this conversation with my brother-in-law a few nights ago. I don’t remember who brought it up, but I think we were discussing the sandwich shop down the street. (They sell pizza, too.) He nearly had a heart attack when I revealed I like pineapple on my pizza.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Not just any pizza. It has to be a traditional Hawaiian style pizza. Which isn’t Hawaiian at all, but the name makes sense when you consider the other toppings.<\/p>\n

The basics are the basics. Crust (your choice) pizza sauce and cheese. Now, start with the meats. I don’t think I’ll offend anyone with those. Canadian bacon tops the list. No substitutions. Ham doesn’t cut it. Pepperoni is a bonus. Other meats are fine (Bacon is always good!) but not needed.<\/p>\n

Green pepper is called for, as are diced tomato pieces.<\/p>\n

Here’s where I may wander into controversy.<\/p>\n

Sliced black olives. I know, I know. Many of you don’t like them. You can skip them.<\/p>\n

It gets worse.<\/p>\n

Pineapple. Yes, pineapple is a fruit. So are olives and tomatoes. According to the Encyclopedia Britannica, “Tomatoes are fruits that are considered vegetables by nutritionists.”<\/p>\n

If you think that’s bad, I’m not done. There’s one more old-school topping. Yes, I know it sounds crazy. Maraschino cherries, cut in half. And there you have it-one Hawaiian style pizza.<\/p>\n

Still with me? What do you think about pineapple as a pizza topping? Let me know in the comments. And check out the other authors by following the links below.<\/p>\n

As always, until next time, please stay safe.<\/p>\n
