It's an abomination; ketchup, made with bananas. Since ketchup is largely sugar and vinegar anyway, it supposedly tastes much the same.

I don't really have any pizza toppings that are "deal-breakers" for me. Smoked oysters on a pizza sounds really weird, but I've never tried it so who knows, it could be amazing. I'm content to just pick off anything that I'm not in the mood for, or order those toppings on the side, or to put them only on half of the pizza. It's only a big deal if you want it to be.
For that guy in our group, though, it feels like this is all beside the point. It's not that he's being "forced to eat pineapple" (because we order them on the side, just for him.) The impression we get from his behavior is that (1) folks wanted pineapple on their pizza, (2) he wants to prove that pineapples do not belong on pizza, and (3) he didn't "win."
Andy, if you're reading this? Stop your ridiculous crusade. I'm ordering a ham & pineapple | ham & jalapeno pizza for tonight's game and you'll never stop me. I'm also lobbying the pizzeria to put this pizza on their permanent menu as "The Andy" in your honor. It's a small, family-owned joint; they'll probably do it.

It's ketchup, made from bananas. It's really popular in the Philippines, and it's pretty good on smoked pork.
It's hard to find outside of the Philippines, but here's a recipe for you in case you're curious and want to try it.

Yeah. It's really very similar, interchangeable for most uses-- I prefer it on french fries, but prefer tomato for mac & cheese-- and the brand I buy comes in both "regular" and "hot and spicy" varieties.
Mainly, though, I use it for making Filipino-style spaghetti: it's your basic meat sauce (with ground pork), add 1/3 or 1/4 as much spicy banana ketchup to the amount of tomato sauce you're using, a can of diced tomatoes with green chiles, a couple of cans of sweetened condensed milk (to taste). Cook the noodles a couple extra minutes. Top with shredded mild cheddar or colby and sliced, browned hot dogs. You want it to come out very spicy and very sweet and chewable thick with meat and cheese.
I get the hot dogs imported because none of the domestic brands are nearly as vibrantly pink on the outside.
EDIT: Amazon.com : jufran $4 isn't a terrible price, but you can usually do better if you've got an Asian grocery nearby.

True story: there's a place in Colorado Springs, CO that makes a "breakfast pizza." It's an 8" buttermilk pancake for a "crust," sausage gravy for the "sauce," and topped with bacon crumbles, cheese, and a fried egg.
Love it or hate it, it exists.

There are really very few foods I don't like. I dislike pepperoni, and olives, and lettuce (some cheeseburger/taco pizzas). Put a couple of toppings I like on the pizza, as a consolation, and I'm fine.
I will not eat mushrooms, or anything mushrooms have touched. And there are a handful of foods I just cannot eat-- I'm not allergic, but I am physically (or psychologically) incapable of swallowing them no matter how much I chew. Mushrooms aren't quite that bad, but sweet tea (unless otherwise flavored), teriyaki sauce, snails... buying those things for me is, essentially, not feeding me because my body does not consider them food.
