And, to set the record straight, I do enjoy pizza hawaii
You wouldn’t be assuming that everyone on Lemmy is American, would you? Because I lost my shit over that too.
Well, .world is definitely a US domain.
/s
I will go on record as saying I don’t give a shit if there’s pineapple on my pizza. I wouldn’t order it that way, but I’ll enjoy a pineapple, jalapeño, ham pizza if a slice is put in front of me.
Raisins in Mac and cheese… I can imagine it’s probably tasty enough, but the rubbery consistency of raisins in tandem with sticky pasta is what I find revolting
I love raisins and even I think this would taste like shit.
I do love me some Hawaiian tho and raisins are bomb in a biryani… Fight me 🤣
Bacon is a tastier option than the ham… It’s actually my favorite combo of pizza toppings in fact.
Today I learned that this thread is real and not a meme. I honestly thought people were joking about raisins in Mac n cheese.
I don’t get it.
Is raisins in Mac n cheese like, a big thing in other countries and us Americans just don’t get it? If so I guess more power to you, that is news to me. I’d try anything once but I don’t really like raisins to begin with so it’s a bit of a tough sell.
And yes, pineapple on pizza is delicious. I’ve seen some truly abhorrent pizza toppings from elsewhere in the world, so I don’t think we have some kind of monopoly on those crimes.
Macncheese isn’t a big thing in other countries. Now cheesy potatoes with raisins!
What?
Mac and Cheese is a Canadian thing
I wouldn’t want to consider the Kraft boxes to be Mac and Cheese but it’s the only thing with statistics
Canadians out-eat Americans when it comes to these blue-and-yellow boxes by 55%. That means Canadians buy 1.7 million boxes of the 7 million boxes of Kraft Mac & Cheese that are sold each week

It’s also why Kraft/Mondalez makes the weird flavors for you guys like Pumpkin Spice or Cotton Candy.
I get the joke now, thanks.
Raisins? Pff. Never heard of that. Frozen green peas though? That’s where it’s at for the boxed Mac and cheese.
I hate raisins either way but I love love love sauteed onions with my mac n cheese.
Huh. I never thought to try that I bet it’s tasty
Onions makes sense though as cheese, onions and pasta are a normal combination but raisins?
Apples and cheddar? Pear and brie? Peaches and balsamic?
Sweet + tangy + savory is an incredibly popular combination, so Mac and cheese + raisins isn’t all that unusual.
Also it’s subjective. You don’t have to like it, but it shouldn’t be surprising that other people do.
Sweet and tangy with the presence of acids and moisture from the fruit are a good combo but guess what raisins don’t have?
You ever have a charcuterie board? Dried fruit and cheese are staples there, and neither are particularly moist.
I’ll say it again, it’s ok to not like a particular thing, but you shouldn’t be surprised when someone else does. Everyone’s tastes are different.
Fair, didn’t think of charcuterie.
Food is Anarchy dude, Live by Your Own Rules!
That’s hydrochloric acid, though. Big no-no for ingestion according to my uncle who’s a doctor and my step brother who teaches chemistry.
Let me guess, you’re with the DEA?
Hell no! Drugs won the war on drugs
drugs have not won the war on drugs until everything is decriminalized B)
Drugs are here to stay and thus have won the war. That they’re not legalised and closely regulated means common sense hasn’t won yet.
cook meth with your step brother wen
Nah, he doesn’t have cancer and we have single payer healthcare here 🤷
You’re thinking of Dihydrogen Monoxide, 100% of people who ingest it die.
And it’s in literally every commercially available beverage! Wake up, sheeple!
It’s only a matter of time :(
whatever liberal ill drink whatever i want
You go right ahead, no reason to defame me like that 😄
…What? In what place was HCl- ever mentioned?
Your reply is nonsensical.
I was referring to the liquid that the girl in the picture is pouring…
You do WHAT with Mac n cheese? Nah, forget pine apple pizza, your my new enemy.
Canadians breathing a sigh of relief when everyone blames America for pineapple on pizza instead of them.
I wondered if it might be because of you lot. Pineapple is typically paired with canadian bacon (ham) on pizza.
I didn’t like pineapple on pizza until a coworker did pineapple and jalapeno.
The sweet/spicy combination was pretty great.
We can only protect ourselves on the merits of ginger beef and the ceasar for so long…
Don’t worry. I blame you for mayonnaise on hamburgers still.
Mayo, mustard, and onion were the original hamburger toppings, Canada didn’t invent that.
How does one not eat burgers with mayo? It’s the best part
While I can go both ways for the mayo on the burger debate, not often you hear that it’s the best part.
A&W is where I go for the mayo on burger goodness. Even the mozza sauce is just thousand island with more mayo essentially.
raisins wtf
I’m going to take one for the team and make this.
I also love pineapple on pizza.
The problem with Pineapple on pizza is that everyone thinks ham goes with it. That’s ok, but pepperoni and pineapple is so much better, and nobody ever gets to try it because of “Hawaiian” pizza.
I think what also turns people off of pineapple on pizza is some places do these huge chunks of pineapple. Smaller chunks are better as they actually cook down a little and are delicious.
I am also part of the pineapple and pepperoni game. I would also recommend trying pineapple and Italian sausage if you like Italian sausage.
And they should be dry well before touching pizza to avoid sogginess.
This, also bacon and pineapple 🤤
Or go full Hawaiian with crispy spam and pineapple…
Ham is bottom tier tbh
Bacon, pineapple, and jalapeño is what the fuck’s up.
Finally someone’s brave enough to say the truth about ham.
The only reason I enjoy eating ham on meat lovers or Hawaiian pizza is because it’s pizza and it doesn’t disassemble well.
My wife loves a good 3 P pizza as she calls it…Pineapple, Pepperoni, and Peppers (green). She orders one at least once a month.
I just like pineapple on cheese.
I put pepperoni, ham, bacon and pineapple on my pizza. So tasty.
Make a pineapple, mac and cheese, and raisin pizza.
Help
No
I always like people gatekeeping pizzas that use toppings other than the traditional Italian ones.
… ignoring the fact that tomato sauce is from the Americas.
I put leftover beans and corn on a pizza from Taco night and one of my friends flipped. I thought it was pretty good. Pizza is just bread sauce and a topping.
Your friend was right
My friend only eats cheese pizza.
Ouch. Sucks to be wrong against someone with such poor taste
Don’t leave us hanging. Have you died or not?
Not dead yet, didn’t make it. I don’t have cheese right now.
Straight to hell all the way to the bottom of hell with you with nothing to eat until the end of time except mac n raisins.
Ugh. Pineapple on pizza was created in Canada.
If you wanna throw shade at us go to deep fried Twinkies or something.
And it should’ve stayed in Canada
Woah there. I love pineapple on pizza. Pineapple, jalapenos, and mushrooms is just a great combo.
Add bacon!
Deep fried butter. I think we went too far
I’m italian from a family so italian we’re all walking stereotypes, and pinapple+black olive is my favorate pizza combination.
You always know when someone says something like “we’re so Italian we…” that they’re definitely not from Italy
I always loved hearing stories from kids that spoke Italian at home in NJ who then went to Italy to discover the 1850s era Sicilian they actually spoke was nothing like modern Italian.
My grandparents imigrated with all 12 of thier kids (my aunts and uncles), you got a problem -lots of hand motions- wid that? Eh? Eh?
But seriously who started all this topping gatekeeping, pizza has spread all over the world with variations evrywhere.
When you fucking what now?
Not american but why would you put raisins in mac n cheese?
I’m European and raisins in mac 'n cheese??? 🤮
