I love pineapple on pizza. Always have. It's weird to me that haters are so stupid about it, while at the same time happily putting sweet and sour sauce on chicken, or pineapple on pork chops, etc...

The Sweet mixed with the Savoury has been a thing in cuisine literally forever. Pizza is no different.

Agreed. I find it delicious. It's ok that others don't like it, but don't yuck my yum.

I mean I also hate those other examples you gave. I feel like sweet should never really cross the palate with savory and it's almost always worse. I prefer spicy every time.

For sure. Preference is allowed. But at least, to my knowledge, you don't deny its very existence in cooking. Sweet/Savoury is a thing. Always has been. Not your cup of tea, that perfectly fine.

To me, sweet on savory tastes delicious, but sweet on cheese tastes like pus. Like, literally like pus from a sore. It can have a good flavor profile in general, but the latent flavor similarities are too much for me.

Well fortunately pizza's just made with mozzarella, and also that cheese has a completely different profile from anything sweet.

Right, which is why I like pizza, but not pineapple pizza.
