This is the best summary I could come up with:
That is, until one brave Neapolitan pizzaiolo, or pizza maker, recently introduced his own version, triggering a heated national debate, TV coverage and "taboo breaking" headlines.
Dressed in minimalist black and bold-framed eyewear, Sorbillo looks more like the head of a Milan fashion house than the third-generation owner of a family-run Neapolitan pizza chain.
A consummate innovator in the kitchen, Sorbillo says curiosity propelled him to determine whether it was the pineapple per se that was the problem on pizza, or the misguided pairing of ham and cheese with the fruit.
For three months, he experimented with different ingredients and ways to prepare the pineapple before settling on the recipe for pizza all'ananas, as it's called in Italian, now on the menu of the family restaurants throughout Italy.
The ubiquitous red fruit introduced into Italy from South America in the 16th century, he explains, is a redundant acidic element that clashes with pineapple, as any Italian will tell you.
Out on the street, the manager of Atri Osteria and Pizzeria around the corner from the Sorbillo establishments hands out flyers for his joint — and makes it loud and clear what he thinks of the new tropical kid on the block.
The original article contains 922 words, the summary contains 200 words. Saved 78%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
Long before I had even heard of pizza (raised in the middle of nowhere in southern Saskatchewan), one of our special occasion dishes was ham roasted with pineapple slices.
Leftovers were made into ham and cheese, ham and pineapple, and even ham and cheese and pineapple sandwiches. Sometimes Dad added a slice of tomato and grilled them open face in the oven under the broiler until the cheese browned. Heaven on Earth, and I didn't even like either tomato or pineapple on their own. I still don't like pineapple unless it's paired with ham.
One of the standard condiments when setting out a cold cut, make your own sandwich buffet was homemade pineapple-mustard.
Now I'm hungry, and I just finished lunch!
