This isn't really anything new, but I thought I'd share.

I love pineapple on pizza, but when I buy a pizza from a pizza place, it costs extra to add pineapple and if I get a frozen all-meat or supreme pizza from the store, it won't have pineapple on it. I was getting cans of pineapple chunks so I could put those on the pizza, but the average can is too large and I'd have a ton of frozen pineapple and juice left over that sat in the freezer forever before I used it again.

So I found - ta da! - little pineapple cups. They're in the canned fruit section and are the size of pudding cups. They don't need to be fridged or frozen so they can go live in the pantry, plus one cup will neatly cover one medium take-out or frozen pizza. And they have minimal juice.

Just in case you guys wanted pineapple on your pizzas, too, this will at least save the cost of one extra item if you do take-out.
 
Well, me too casey... but I trudged thru to the end.

Good on you RR! I often miss my sweet to end my meal and I now get the single serve peach or pear cups. Not a bad price considering the convenience. I've never seen pineapple. Will have to start checking around for them as there are time when they would be handy.... just not on pizza. sorry RR :flowers:

Same here. Though I have heard of dessert pizza and pineapple would probably be fine on that.

One could also use the little pineapple cups if making a pizza and one of the people eating it wants pineapple, but the other(s) don't. Just put it on their portion of the pizza.
 
If God wanted pineapple on pizza, he would have put Italy in the south Pacific!

That being said, those little cups have just the right amount of pineapple for pineapple pancakes or waffles, especially good with coconut syrup!
 
We find fresh pineapples in supermarkets/fruit & veg stores during the Winter season and traditionally we eat it at Christmas time. Not on pizza, of course🙄😆.
 
I buy those pineapple and mandarin snack cups.

They are nice as a snack, an addition to a cabbage salad, the base of a simple fruit salad with a banana and an apple or a few grapes but I would never think of fruit as a pizza topping.

It may be delicious but it ain’t pizza!

and don’t even mention pizza and pumpkin spice in the same breath.

If I remember, I always put pineapple on our veggie pizza, we love it. The first time I had it, I was in canada, and my aunt made a shrimp and pineapple pizza. It was delicious.
Those little cups of pineapple are a great idea. I can usually find something to use pineapple in for the rest of the jar Oatmeal/smoothie/salad/for a snack.

Pineapple-Ham pizza, AKA: Hawaiian Pizza, was actually invented in Canada.
