    It’s kinda crazy that it took the combined culinary efforts of at least 4 nations to create something genius that would piss off all of those nations.

    Also, pineapple on pizza is fucking delicious, and I will fight over that personal opinion being as valid as it sucking :)

    Whats a Canadian from Greece? Was the guy Greek living in Canada? Doesn’t that just make him Greek? Or was it a person born in Canada with Greek ancestry? That would not make him from Greece.

      Hey, I’m with you. I think it’s awful and that the people who enjoy it should be taken out back and shot.

      But I just don’t have the energy to take my wife out back and shoot her.

        Imagine getting so worked up over what makes someone else happy.

          Do you think I really plan to shoot my wife for liking pineapple on her pizza?

    I go to Italy often just to eat real Italian food. I understand that for Italians, the hawainana pizza is an aberration, like many other things if not cooked as they traditionally do. And I respect it, because it’s a key part of their culture. Still, I have a right to eat and like whatever I want, so I also expect respect on that sense. Some people will do this and some others won’t. I think it’s a personal choice to decide respecting others opinions.

      They don’t have to serve you what you want if it’s not on the menu, they can try to accommodate if they really want but that’s about it.

      But if you don’t have the ingredients they cannot really do that can they.

      Traditional schmaditional. They never had tomatoes, peppers, potatoes, corn or a bunch of other things until Meso-America was ransacked.

        Discovering that tomatoes were new world fruit really torpedoed any chance of me respecting Italian traditions

          I also discovered a while ago the amazing arrival of pinneaples to Europe, back then they were so rare and expensive that there were companies providing rental services for pinneaples. Rich people would host a pinneaples party, to basically show it, and then to be returned to the company that rented it. Crazy pinneaple times indeed!
