It is arguably the most divisive food-related debate: the question of whether pineapple is an appropriate pizza topping is a controversial one. But are a few chunks of tangy pineapple on a pizza really so bad? It doesn’t seem possible considering pineapple made it to the list of 10 most popular pizza toppings. (Although it only makes the ninth spot, just ahead of spinach.) To get to the bottom of this debate and decide on a winning side once and for all, we reached out to pizza chefs across the US for their opinions on the appropriateness of pineapple.

As it turns out, the customer is always right, as the saying goes, even when it comes irreverent requests such as pineapple on traditional pizza. 10 best oven pizzas Show all 10 Chef Anthony Carron of 800 Degrees Pizzeria is one chef who has had to put his own beliefs aside in order to make his customers happy.

Refusing “to just serve garbage canned pineapple tidbits” he instead buys whole, fresh Hawaiian gold pineapples, which are then peeled and diced by hand, tossed with extra virgin olive oil and sea salt, and roasted in their wood-burning ovens until they are caramelized, which actually sounds incredibly delicious.
