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.
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.
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.
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’d say switching between option A and option B is what fucks you up; you have an irregular sleep schedule. Pick option B and stick with it, even on weekends.
I don’t mean to pick on this comic, rather the culture in general, but this self deprecation, everything is shit trope is getting a little played out. There’s probably 50 variants of this joke on everyone’s feed and it’s kinda just a downer.
I dislike pineapple on pizza because most places always do such an awful job. You either get pineapple chunks that are still partially frozen and waterlogs the pie, or you get desiccated husks of fiber. Any salty/sweet combo advantage is totally lost.
¯_(ツ)_/¯ My roommate and I order from a new-to-us pizza joint every other month or so and he frequently orders a pie with pineapple. I can count on one hand the number of places that actually had a delicious pie with pineapple.
Maybe my standards are too high, but you knights of pineapple can enjoy whatever you want.
I grew up in a household where I was taught when cooking salty sweet dishes, you should add just enough sugar to the dish so that it tastes different but you can’t tell why. Otherwise you’ve added too much sugar.
You can definitely taste the sweet in Pineapple pizza…
In some savory dishes like tomato sauce for example you add a little bit of sugar to reduce bitterness and just make the flavors more balanced. Also, most anything tastes better if you add just a little bit of salt in at some point of the cooking process.
Doesn’t mean I’m going to sprinkle sea salt on top of my pecan pie though…
Meanwhile you miss out on the glory that is Poutine, most Maple desserts, Tortiere, Butter Tarts, Back Bacon (AKA Canadian Bacon), California Rolls (yes I know, but they are Canadian actually), Nanaimo Bars, Caesars,PEANUT BUTTER (No, it wasn’t George Washington Carver, he made a type of peanut butter after it was already invented), Chinese Buffets, and Coffee Crisps.
If you ever bought eggs in an egg carton or cooked with canola oil you’ve been a closet Canadian all along. Ok you may continue with the pearl clutching now
Especially since the origin of pizza is just throw the cheapest left overs on some bread when your broke. taste played a very minor role with the reason it came into existence. So why privileged assholes have to gatekeep a peasant’s solution against starvation over preferential taste is just cringeworthy classism at best.
Bruh, I think you’re thinking too deep into this. Some people don’t like the flavor profile of pineapple. It likely started as a teasing joke to their friends when they were young and didn’t know comedy:
“Eeeewwww pineapple on pizza?! Gross! 😂”
And then the joke just kinda blew up from there because enough people agreed on it.
Then you become an adult and realize people just genuinely like different things. I hate pineapple in general, so I don’t get it on my pizza. My husband loves Hawaiian pizza.
I love anchovies, and he can’t stand them. He says the “juice” affects the rest of the pizza even when I only get it on my half.
We order 2 different pizzas and everyone is happy.
I don’t think either of us (or anyone who still pretends to be shocked that pineapple on pizza is a thing) is “gatekeeping pizza” or shaming poor people from tryna eat whatever they have. It is legit on the same level as. “OMG you use APPLE?!?!? I COULD NEVER!”.
The buzz around it grew when I was seeing a lot of pizza party’s which always ended up with 3 flavours being brought. Margherita, Pepperoni and Hawaiian. So I’ve always associated the movement being some secret groups’ lifeprotip to order Hawaiian do they can eat a bunch of pizza and it’s divisive. If your ordering for yourself go nuts. If your ordering for a group, there are plenty of more on-averagr enjoyable options
Pineapple is fine, but I wouldn’t go out of my way for it. It’s the tomato juice that makes this sound truly vile. Also who cares which side of the pizza you bite into?
I emailed him and asked him about that once. He says that he intentionally draws characters that can’t be identified, because he wants his cartoons to be inclusive. I guess they could be either male or female if you accept that his characters just have no hair.
You’re making an illogical jump. I’m not saying that to be mean, I mean literally the logic does not work backwards that way.
It is inclusive to allow the reader their own perspective and leave it up to personal interpretation. That does not equal the logic of “drawing genders means it is not inclusive.”
It’s a false equivalency that nobody brought up until you decided to stir up some emotions by applying broken logic :)
I really hate to be that guy but I went from 10.5 to 8.5 hours average by regularly exercising. Hard to begin with since usually the issue is not enough time or being too tired but it is worth it. Took about 3 months or dailyish activity
