More divisive than cornbread or BBQ: Hawaiian pizza
« on: April 18, 2018, 11:03:08 AM »
Today's Wall Street Journal has an article about the divisive nature of Hawaiian pizza (Canadian bacon and pineapple).  For the record, I love it.  My wife does not.  She will not even accept half of the pizza to be Hawaiian, over some made-up concern over 'contamination'.

I wonder if this will rank as one of the great APS schism threads, right up there with cornbread or BBQ.

Hawaiian "pizza" - another good reason to revoke their statehood.

Hey, I'm with you Millcreek. If you don't want to call cornbread with sugar, cornbread, or you don't want to call pizza with pineapple, pizza, call them whatever you like. I'll eat them by any name. :)

I grew up with it.  Wife loves it.  Marital compromise was not having mushrooms on it anymore though.

Obviously, one wouldn't put mushrooms on anything one was going to eat.

More to the point, isn't this a case of tri-lateral cultural appropriation? Seriously, putting Canadian bacon and pineapple on pizza? This cannot be allowed.

Since there ought not to be any Hawaiian Chicago Style Deep Dish pizza, CLEARLY Hawaiian is not a REAL pizza.*

But, it's just as good as any other thin pizza.  


*to kick off the more divisive pizza debate


Seriously, though, it's fine. I prefer other pizzas (USUALLY), but it's good and a nice change sometimes.

I'll eat anything on pizza other than olives. I HATE olives.

If you think pineapple and bacon is weird... try out some of popular toppings in other nations...

Oh, while I hate olives, I LOVE anchovies.

I used to like it, not so much anymore. Wife loves it, but she denies me supreme pizza, so I deny her Hawaiian pizza when go out for pizza or order for delivery.

Love Hawaiian pizza.  Donatos as a really good Hawaiian pizza, with shaved ham, pineapple, almonds and cinnamon.

That's what i was thinking.  I'm not sure exactly who is appropriating what from whom, but I'm pretty sure we ought to be outraged by at least two thirds of the meal.

One thing I can tell you is that Italy had better quit appropriating pizza, which is clearly an American invention. I mean, sure, they had a pizza prototype, but their topping of choice was big blobs of mozzarella. ;/  Get real, Luigi. As everyone knows, pizza actually began in the U.S., when we invented pepperoni.

So knock it off, Italy!  :mad:

"deep dish pizza."

To further delve into inappropriate pizza styles...  =D

I also really like BBQ chicken pizza with cashews. I did not think I would like it, but was convinced to try it, and it's now one of my favorite pizza (or pizza-like, for you sticklers) styles.

Whenever I'm up fishing in Mammoth and do my one day of 10-15 miles of hiking, when I get back, the first thing I do is call the Republican run pizza joint in town and order a large, and eat the whole damn thing with a couple of beers. The one they make there is the best I've ever had, and like Hawaiian style (or any pizza really) a lot of it depends on where you get your pizza. I've eaten at places that can make a great pepperoni, but a terrible Hawaiian.

Never tried BBQ chicken pizza with cashews.  I like Jet's BBQ Chicken pizza BBQ sauce, mozzarella, grilled chicken, bacon, and red onions.

Pineapple and mushroom is the greatest pizza topping combo ever.

Sausage and onion is next.

Then ground beef and onion.

And lastly the basic big combo of sausage, green pepper, onion, mushroom, and olive.

Pepperoni is nice, though.

However as long as it doesn't have jalapenos or anchovies I'll probably enjoy it. It is pizza after all.

Pepperoni and black olives (even better if they're kalamata) is the best. Hawaiian pizza is stupid... Well, pretty much anything with Canadian bacon is stupid.

There's a little family joint not far from nick's place that we used to go to. My wife liked to order the sauerkraut and pineapple pizza. I tried it a few times it wasn't bad just not my style.

I really like the red onions on the BBQ chicken pizza-like substance. They really add pizzazazz. :)

My wife and I went to a new MOD pizza that just opened nearby.  I had their take on a BBQ chicken pizza: the Caspian.  They had a nice twist on it insofar as it used gorgonzola cheese rather than mozzarella.  As a fan of gorgonzola, I approved.  When I get it next time, I think I will have them add some bacon and cilantro to it.

I am very disappointed in myself, just now. Though I feel that tacos should always be made with beef*, my wife made some chicken tacos this weekend that were not half bad. But it gets worse. While she was at it, she made something she called "Mexican pizza," also with chicken. And though I know it's a sin to eat chicken pizza, I tried it. And I liked it.  =(  Please pray for me.



*Though I wouldn't turn down venison tacos, or goat tacos, come to think of it. Gyros, etc.

I heard of a pizza place that briefly offered avocado, broccoli, and sauerkraut on their pineapple BBQ pizzas.

I don't know if this is the one . . .
