pineapple on pizza

to me, the smell is like... a bit open sewer sulphurous, fading to a sweet rotting wood and a rich, spicy fruit smell like overripe bananas, white pepper-- i just walked over to the fridge for the third time to resmell that smell and i can't even get close to describing it. i think the sewage smell is the most unpleasant element of the scent. when you first crack into one, it's a bit overpowering.

if you're in north america, eating frozen durian, let it thaw very briefly and eat it still frozen.
no smell,
just frozen very delicately fibrous durian custard.

pineapple on pizza is fucked up.

i've had durian and i wouldn't have compared its texture to avocado, i thought it was much closer to other melons or mango especially

also it didnt smell that bad but i didnt experience cracking it open, just ate some chunks out of a container that was in my friend's fridge

throw some andouillette sausage on that durian za and u got urself a party

I love sweet and salty. Mascarpone-cheese on pizza is awesome. I just don't get why you would put pineapple on it to get that taste. The texture is awful, it gets wet and sticky. It's not worth it.

Just as I don't pepperoni. Why not use real italian sausage instead of industrial garbage?

Because it's pizza!

The answer is fennel seeds. Fennel seeds are why not to use Italian sausage.

D'oh. Was supposed to say 'Just as I don't get that gross godawful attempt at sausage called pepperoni. Stupid phone.

the nice men in the takeaways in Hull only offer industrial garbage, will suggest they start using artisanal meat sourced from Italian wholefood collectives in future

is it true that it smells like rotting meat? or does it just smell like feet?

To this day I regret not getting a photo of WilliamC's face when he tried a durian popsicle in the Uwajimaya parking lot.

No pineapple or durian on my pizza please, btw. Though if it's all that's left, I won't say no to a slice.

my durian experience: smelled terrible, actually tasted really good, but the real problem was the texture. impossible to chew/bite, you just had to swallow at some point, same reason i can't deal with tripe.

Mr. Jaq's face was equally priceless when he tried the durian popsicle! I could see him really wanting to like it, but after a few seconds he just caved. Maybe like being in a heavy BDSM scenario and having to use the safe word. "Damn it, I thought I could take it!"

xp

durian is p dope, its one of those foods like truffles or oysters that work on some other deeper level

To be fair, that popsicle was probably artificial durian flavor made from condensed sewage vapors and rancid butter. Xp

I still don't really want it on my pizza.

xp The 'I can't believe I'm eating this really gross thing but it cost a lot of money so I'm going to have to' level?

Dear "people" who profess to like pineapple on pizza: On a cosmic level you are being punished for your sins. But if you don't want to contemplate the implications, go ahead and eat your crime against pineapple.

stopped enjoying this after I stopped eating meat. feel like the pineapple needs cured meat to offset it.

It's the cured meat's salt set against the pineapple's sweetness and mild acidity that people are responding to mostly.

I would never order pineapple on a pizza, but if it were served to me & I was hungry, I'd totally chow down on it.

now if we were talking scallops...

I don't eat meat. Still love pineapple pizza. Actually, went to a pizza party a few weeks ago with a group that was probably 60/40 meat-eater/vegetarian split and the pineapple-only pizza was the overwhelming favorite.

There are few pizzerias who overload the pizza with pineapple, I can understand not liking that. It is perhaps a difficult balance, but once it hit the spot it is amazing if you don't like it you shouldn't have rights etc

Just as I don't pepperoni. Why not use real italian sausage instead of industrial garbage?

haha this is the same kind of confused thinking that has led to gourmet burgers

durian tastes nice once you get past the smell, and it's true, if you have it semi-frozen the smell isn't so bad.

someone upthread mentioned andouillette -- i've only read about it and seen pictures, but i think i will give a WIDE berth to that one.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andouillette

stronger in scent when the colon is used

...think I'll be skipping that one. Colon on my pizza is going too far.

All have a strong, distinctive odor related to their intestinal origins and components. Although sometimes repellant to the uninitiated, this aspect of andouillette is prized by its devotees.

lolololol

"hooray, my sausage smells like shit!"

The French parliamentarian Edouard Herriot and Mayor of Lyon once said talking about the "Andouillette de Troyes"; "Politics is like an andouillette – it should smell a little like shit, but not too much."

I looooooooooooove andouillette.

"La Politique, c'est comme l'andouillette. Ça doit sentir la merde mais pas trop."

it doesn't smell that much usually. just enough that you know what you're eating.

I mean, if you eat hot dogs...

I do not eat a lot of hot dogs tbh

and, when I do, they have been processed so much that they don't smell like shit

Andouillete is one of the three sort of meat that I miss since I became a vegetarian, along with foie gras and merguez.

Tbs, it doesn't make much sense on pizza.

andouillette on pizza would be hilar

was gonna link to photos of examples but it reminded me of why one is best off avoiding pizza in France

I would try a foie gras pizza, mostly because lol

Am I going to have to tell you all about the greatest pizza in Europe? It won a continent-wide award, and I ate it, for 7 euro and 50 cents. It was every bit the hype.

Its primary topping was cured pork fat.

okay no

is that spring onion? cunts

only thing that can help that pizza is some rocket

red rocket

omg you dick

rocket is crisp, leafy and excellent with pizza

spring onion is greasy, slimy and abominable when cooked

dog dick pizza is about to be googled

no it's not. i'm a chicken. sorry.

Every pizza thread on every chat board i've been on (and folks, i've been on them all ;) ) there's always the moment when the pizzafuckers arrive. Welcome sir!

Those balls of corruption got no place on pizzas, that is horrible. Pineapple is fine !

in my experience green onions are not slimy, etc. on pizza - they're not cooked before hand, just tossed on raw, so they dry out, get a little singed maybe - very flavorful

is there meat somewhere on that egg pizza?
