The people who freak out about pineapple on pizza are just a vocal minority. It's ginned up controversy for fake Internet points.

There have been several times in my life where pizza was being ordered for a crowd, and Hawaiian was roundly rejected, even before anyone used the word "meme". I don't get it.

Were these groups of people you'd consider adventurous or picky eaters? Also, not liking something doesn't always mean you can't hear it even mentioned without having a strong negative reaction, which is how I think this issue has now become. It's like a weird bonding thing for people on that bandwagon

I'm super picky, but I like Hawaiian pizza, so I don't think it's that...

Not everyone is picky in the same ways
