        Eating crust first is a war crime.

        To me it’s like eating your least favorite candy in a mixed bag first - you’re left with the best part last. You have to leave just a bit of it so you can still grab it.

        E: Also, if you eat all the crusts last they usually go dry and hard instead of nice and warm when you eat them first or as you go along. Depends on whether the dough is good really.

          If you are just force feeding yourself the crust, maybe not eating the crust would be a better choice since it is just carbs at that point.

            I agree, if you are. Never said anything about force feeding though.

            A good dough is just good bread, but anyone who has ever eaten bread will know it’ll dry and get hard if it sits out in the open for long enough. And even then, it can make for good breadsticks for sauce or soup or whatever if it’s a good dough. Like I said, it all boils down to how good the dough/crust is. I don’t really eat shitty pizza with shitty dough though so I don’t really have the problem of “force feeding” the crusts. The dough, along with the tomato sauce is one of the most important parts of a good pizza IMO.

              If your pizza is worth eating, the crust is the best part. Crispy bits of Parmesan, the slight flamed brownness underneath, the warm, soft inside.

        You take a bite of the crust because it’s one of those cheese crusts and it tastes like shit if you don’t eat it alongside the pizza itself.

      Especially since the origin of pizza is “let’s just use up what is left in the fridge cuz we’re broke”. it’s the elitist gate keeping asshole who deserves all the shame in this scenario

          Not all food that gets cooked on a pizza needs a fridge. But either way you’re skipping the point. it’s literally leftovers combined, with or without a fridge. Probably even more so without a fridge if food goes bad faster.

          The point is it’s a peasant food made of literally anything because scarcity.

          So in all fairness to to the benefit it provides there should be no rule that there has to be a pineapple or not.

        Ok, what is the joke? I think the creator thinks that it’s funny to have an extreme reaction (murder) to a minor infraction (liking the wrong kind of food).

        If you (like the creator) believe that the idea of “liking the wrong foods” will resonate with an audience as a social infraction. Well, ffs let people live their lives.

        The premise for the joke is obnoxious.

          I am pretty sure the woman in the comic is the self-insert of the creator and they think it is funny that people have an extreme reaction to the author’s minor infraction and that you should let people live their lives.

        My entire life I have met hundreds of people that don’t mind pineapple pizza, I have been to dozens of school, work, and social functions where there was pineapple pizza, and nobody has ever complained. Literally decades of people eating it without complaining, or not eating it but also not complaining.

        I never heard a single human being mention it until it became an internet meme, and the only people that have ever mentioned it IRL were chronically online individuals.

        But sure it’s me not knowing enough people, what a fucking rude and condescending thing to say.

            More likely you surround yourself with petty people who complain about minor things, and chronically online trolls who think their le epic memes are reality. Can you imagine complaining about what other people eat? What does it matter to you, how egotistical are you that you want to complain that other people eat pineapple on pizza, what a childish thing to do.

            Also bonus points for hypocritically saying my experience can’t be real, while yours is objective reality. No, you are just from a region or social group that has abandoned civility and politeness, and cannot possibly fathom anyone disagreeing with them without being rude and condescending to them.

        What a rude thing to say, so nobody is allowed to hold an opinion that you disagree with? Or share their experience if it doesn’t agree with yours? Do you not see how hypocritical your statement is, or how needlessly hostile it was presented?

        Based on what I’ve heard on the Internet, Italians will straight murder you for eating anything other that a meal directly cooked by their grandmother because it’s ineffably wrong, and not endowed by the spirit of Italy.

        If course, actual Italians I’ve known are normal people who typically don’t care what you eat.

        If they did they’d be a classist bigot not worth fighting. pizza is peasant food invented not for taste but to not starve. If you’re going to so low to gatekeep fight someone for that, that is definitely on the wrong side of history.

    I think for me the tartness of pineapple combined with the acidity of tomatoes, is too reminiscent of the flavor profile of bile. It tastes like I threw up a little in my mouth, which is not something I desire to pay for, chew, savor, or swallow.

    I mean the correct order is the tip with a bite of the crust from one side, then continue to go along that side biting a piece of the crust along with the base pizza. Unless you have something like curry on the side, then you can just not eat the crust at all and use it as breadsticks for the curry.

    I’m confused by this comic, because she’s literally eating it crust first, which is not the side. And crust first is a 100% qualified way to eat pizza.

    Also pineapple is one of the best toppings

      I usually go with garlic butter or ranch for the crust breadstick, but curry sounds pretty good.

        Oooh garlic butter is gonna be my next one to try. Pizza and spiiicy spicy curry is my hangover special - leftover curry and make or order pizza and then eat the crusts with the sauce. Garlic butter sounds like heaven though.

        E: Tomato soup is also another great one for dipping crusts.
