I’ll eat pineapple on a pizza if we have to order it for family peace. My wife and daughter both like it, so it does get ordered.
I like your option for pizza, with the exception of pineapple on pizza.

No avocados on my pizza, either!

i love both and look forward to trying the pickled banana peppers.

What’s the best pineapple source - just canned?

Maybe I’ll better appreciate Lou’s when I have it in 2021 or 2022 :-)

Wouldn’t fresh, sweet pineapple be the best? All the Dole or similar canned pineapple always paled in comparison to great fresh stuff.

I'm guessing most places use canned, I've never used it at home.

Leftover Chinese from a local place. They make a General Tso's Shrimp and sesame noodles which are even better the next day.

You don't have room for 2 9' pizzas? Maybe you should start eating from the freezer and pantry more often to make room for new things. Since you love it so much why are you making yourself wait for so long?
And yes, canned pineapple on pizza is really good...especially with ham or canadian bacon. ( I know that you don't bring either into your house).

It is on a pizza with sauce and cheese. There is no reason to use fresh pineapple. Do you think pizza places are cutting up fresh pineapple? I am pretty sure they are using a giant restaurant sized can. It isn't like you are eating a slice of pineapple by itself.

It could be fun to try some canned pineapple with a future pizza :-)

Do it. Especially if you are a fan of the sweet/savory combo. Another thing that I love on (some) pizza is chopped dill pickles..give that one a try too! what's the worst that could happen---if you don't like it, you can just pick it off and not do it again. Frozen pineapple would work too---I usually have some in my freezer for margaritas.

I was a little afraid to try it but turns out it is delicious...one of my favorites if I order pizza in. Pastrami pizza....swiss cheese, mustard, pastrami, pickles.

I would try that! Absolutely love pastrami! Another that I like occasionally is a Mexican or "taco" pizza.

That’s not a combo I’d normally order, but it does look appealing.

Last lunch at RC

Last lunch for 3 at the Ritz Carlton. JW Marriott next.

More Nachos, and the Cajun chicken salad. Pasta pomodoro with meatballs. Nasi goreng kambing. Fettuccine alfredo. Everything was good, the nachos were spicier than the previous time.
