Hell yes, pineapple on pizza! The sharp acidity of the pineapple just cuts right through the cheese and grease for this lovely refreshing pop of flavour! You can also just eat pineapple and chedder straight, I love having cheese and pineapple cocktail sticks at parties. Also recommendation; instead of ham, try mushrooms with the pineapple pizza! The umami helps balance out the sweetness. It's a pretty rad combo.
( Anonymous asked: Oh boy, what a fire you might have just lit with this question, Aziraphale. People can get REAL passionate about this question. I personally like pineapple on pizza. I think the tangy, sweetness from the pineapple is a nice compliment to it! I also personally like the added crunch pineapple adds. It's a very nice texture in my opinion! It's a personal favorite of mine when it comes to pizza!
Anonymous asked: Listen. Pineapple on pizza is great. The sweetness of the pineapple perfectly complements the other savory toppings, and the fact that pineapple and tomato are both slightly acidic makes them excellent together. Sweet and savory, done right, is always an excellent combination.

Anonymous asked: Pineapple on pizza tastes amazing. I don't know why it gets so much hate. It's sweetness combines perfectly with the saltiness of the rest of the ingredients, you get the best of both worlds. And since you're interested in pairings, Aziraphale, let me recommend you pineapple in hamburger, I'm sure you're going to love it!
Anonymous asked: honestly? pineapple on pizza isnt my favorite, but i can see the appeal. its mostly the texture of cooked pineapple combined with pizza texture i dont like, but flavorwise the sweet and the tomato and a carb works well! and i dont understand why its so weird, people have done like mango or pineapple and tomato salsa for ages and paired it with chips/tortillas/put it on tacos with cheese, so its not a new combination. anyways back on flavor topic, yeah i like the flavors, i like the pineapple and sweetness but tang combined with the general cheese+tomato+crust pairing (especially a good crust) and really overall just dont like the way the cooked pineapple juice makes the whole thing a little too soggy.
Anonymous asked: Pineapple on pizza can work if it isn’t overwhelming and paired with the right toppings. It adds a bit of fruity flavor to brighten up otherwise blander things like Canadian bacon/ham . If it’s a “Hawaiian” pizza, it works well!
Anonymous asked: Surely pineapple on pizza is one of Crowley's inventions? )
Crowley: Well that was annoyingly positive. i was hoping everyone would get angry about this and we could pit both sides of our followers against each other and just watch them bicker.
Aziraphale: Why would you want that? ... Don’t answer that, I know what you’re going to say. Anyway, I think it’s lovely that the responses were so pleasant, and all mostly in favour of my wonderful suggestion too!
Crowley: Not so ashamed of it now then?
Aziraphale: I was never ashamed, dear, I was just... aware that some people had quite strong opinions about the matter.
Crowley: Even though multiple people now have assumed it was me and not you that created it?
Aziraphale: Yes. After all, I am now backed up by a wide array of sources confirming that it can indeed be a good thing, so even if someone were to doubt my tasting knowledge as an angel, I believe I would be able to defend the addition quite well now.
Crowley: Was that what this whole thing was about?
Aziraphale: Not at all, I was genuinely curious about similarities in tastes. This has just been a lovely added bonus on the side.
