Kangaroo meat isn't too bad.
I don't think it's controversial at all. I mean, it might be "controversial" for the 10% of people who don't like it, but everyone else either (a) likes pineapple on pizza, or (b) doesn't think it's that big of a deal and will pick it off.I'm surprised how popular pineapple is, given how controversial it is!

So if I had to pick a three-topping pizza from only The Cool Kids list, it would be Bacon, Jalapeno, and Pineapple. (An easy favorite.)
And if I had to build a three-topping pizza from The Last Ones Picked in Gym Class, it would be Sun-Dried Tomatoes, Kalamata Olives, and Artichoke Hearts. (Sounds pretty tasty, actually.)
But if I had to build a pizza in the Shame Basement, I'd probably chicken out and order a three-cheese pizza. Just kidding, just kidding, that's no fun at all. So if I really had to, I'd pick Capers, Pepperoncini, and Green Onion. Not the worst, I suppose, but kinda boring.

Cauliflower
Heartily agree.Roast cauliflower can be really good on pizza, but it has to be done right.
Heartily agree.
I've also had apple on a ham pizza, and it was really good. Very similar vibes as the ham & pineapple: tangy, sweet, fruity.
Ooh, I've never thought of apple on pizza. That sounds nice.
It's nice on dessert pizzas.
I'm thinking some brie, honey or maple syrup drizzled lightly over it all.
At a certain point, why are we calling this pizza?
This is a pastry. Or a dessert. Maybe a pop tart?
"So, I've got this great idea for a pizza. It won't have tomato sauce, or bread, or cheese, and it will be sweet! But totally a pizza."
Brand extension is going too far.... I BLAME NEW ZEALAND AND THE UNHOLY MONSTROSITIES THAT THE CLAIM ARE "PIZZA."

STOP IT! You're not even trying anymore. You're just angering people's blood, aren't you?
The OSR and pizza have this in common at least: arguing about what qualifies and what doesn't!
Bringing the "sweet toppings on pizza" trend to its logical conclusion, you'll end up with an apple tart:
...
This isn't a problem, mind you. My brain translates both pizzas and tarts as "pie" anyway. Delicious.
