[later] I don't get why our pizza slices have such terrible reviews; the geotextile-infused sauce gives the toppings incredible slope stability!

LIDAR diodes > pineapple

[-] Coelacanth@feddit.nu 24 points 10 months ago

I imagine all the pineapple on pizza outrage would swiftly quiet down if people learned that the swedes put banana and curry on their pizzas.

NSFL

…honestly, throw some ham on that and I think it wouldn't be half bad.

[-] DireTech@lemm.ee 5 points 10 months ago

That sounds so weird that I want to try it.

[-] Coelacanth@feddit.nu 5 points 10 months ago

It's better than you'd think (which admittedly doesn't say much).

Sadly, Boston Pizza and Curry went out of business a few years ago and we never did try their tika masala pizza.

But their curry was acceptable...

hey now, if those pineapple pizza lovers could read, they'd be very upset with you right now!

[-] Nougat@fedia.io 25 points 10 months ago

It was first done in Canada, so there's probably a tariff on it.

[-] danc4498@lemmy.world 20 points 10 months ago

I don’t understand all the pineapple pizza hate. Sweet and savory bro. SWEET AN SAVORY!!!

[-] Soggy@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

Pineapple and anchovy is delicious. Sweet and salty flavor explosion.

[-] RogueBanana@lemmy.zip -4 points 10 months ago

Fortunately, all 3 of them can't read.

[-] supernicepojo@lemmy.world 14 points 10 months ago

Corn and mayonaise pizza. Good luck with that information

[-] y0kai@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 10 months ago

Lol this is like the Chinese idea of American food.

They put corn on almost all of the pizzas they fed me there and "American breakfast" was just a hard boiled egg and a cold hot dog.

[-] tigeruppercut@lemmy.zip 5 points 10 months ago

Sounds like japan as well. Corn and mayo (often with either canned tuna or potato salad), and the coffee shops used to have a "breakfast special" deal with a coffee plus hot dog.

[-] y0kai@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 10 months ago

Haha I have yet to go but it sounds like an experience. I wonder how coffee-dipped hotdog tastes.

[-] RvTV95XBeo@sh.itjust.works 1 points 10 months ago

Wait, elotes on pizza?! Two of my favorite things! Giving this a go next pizza night.

[-] hoshikarakitaridia@lemmy.world 10 points 10 months ago

Someone had to do it lmao

[-] sundrei@lemmy.sdf.org 18 points 10 months ago

I admit it, that joke was low-hanging fruit.

[-] MelodiousFunk@slrpnk.net 9 points 10 months ago

But... pineapples don't hang? Unless you were referring to the diodes. I'm not sure how those grow in the wild.

[-] Natanael@infosec.pub 1 points 10 months ago

Those grow in gas chambers

[-] Cocodapuf@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

Shots fired!
