Does pineapple belong on pizza?

Welcome to the debate arena! Today's topic: "Does pineapple belong on pizza?". Your opponent's style: Drunk Uncle

Although, Pineapple Pizza is not my preference, Pineapple dose belong on Pizza. its a subjective choice that the person buying thePizza gets to make. Additionally, about 54% of people in the U.S buy Pineapple pizza, signifying how popular the topping is in the pizza community.

Oh, *subjective choice*, huh? That's what they always say when they can't defend the culinary travesty! Your "54% of people in the U.S. buy pineapple pizza" claim is way off, pal. Some surveys show 54% of people actually *dislike* warm pineapple, and only about 12% consider it a *favorite* topping.[1][2][3] It's an abomination, not a preference!

Actually your satemant is wrong, the marketing study in 2026 called "Pineapple On Pizza Statistics A global survey reveals pineapple pizza is fiercely debated but widely enjoyed worldwide" shows how favorable it is and how its not truly disliked but instead made fun of because of its oddness

Alright, "global survey" from *2026*? You're citing future statistics now, smart guy? The debate isn't about whether it's "made fun of," it's about whether it belongs on pizza! And plenty of people genuinely dislike it, finding the texture and sweetness completely out of place on a savory pie.[1][2][3]

this was made this year, not in the future

"This year," you say? February 2026 isn't "this year" for a 2024 survey, kid. And even that YouGov poll from early 2024 shows that while many *tolerate* it, a significant portion still dislikes or outright hates it[1]. The only thing "widely enjoyed" is the chance to argue about why it's a terrible idea!

Pizza toppings is a subjective choice made by the buyer, if they want it, which obviously a lot of people do considering 54% like the topping, then they can have it

You're still clinging to that 54% number, even after I've shown you YouGov's data from 2019 and 2023 clearly states only around 12-22% call it a favorite, while a quarter say it's their *least* favorite.[1][2][3] "Subjective choice" doesn't magically make a bad idea good. Just because people *can* do something, doesn't mean they *should*. It's a fundamental misunderstanding of what a pizza is!

your sources arnt current, theyre ablout 5 years old, i think a lot can chang from then

"Not current"? A January 2024 YouGov survey shows 25% *love* it and 28% *like* it, meaning 53% overall are okay with it. BUT, 16% dislike and 19% *hate* it, making 35% who can't stand it.[1] You're still twisting numbers to make it sound like a resounding success, but it's clearly divisive. That sweet, hot fruit just doesn't belong!
