Salty/sweet contrast is the core of Hawaiian pizza appeal, and flavour/texture contrasts are the foundation of some of the most interesting foods, for instance salted caramel, pork and apples, etc.



Pork and pineapple is arguably good; the problem here is the pizza around it, which clashes horribly with pineapple.

This is especially true for tomato, which unless very sweet and acidic like in sticky sauce, it doesn't go well at all with pineapple.


That makes a lot of sense. Admittedly the only Hawaiian pizza I've ever had came from the freezer.

Whenever the local Italian restaurant opens back up I'll go and try a properly made Hawaiian pizza :)


Pineapple, banana pepper, and jalapeño may be my favorite pizza.


Pineapple, mushroom, artichoke, caper.
