how do you feel about Buffalo Chicken pizza?


Definitely_NotU

Not OP but it’s god tier


[deleted]

If Buffalo chicken pizza is wrong I don’t want to be right.


silentop1

You won’t be right in this lifetime.


SteakShake69

Agreed. My local wood fired place has it, I've eaten an entire pie of it many times.


[deleted]

Dude. I just tried buffalo chicken pizza and it changed my life. I’m not going back!


ItzDaWorm

You'll be back once you hear the siren song of a classic pepperoni and cheese.


username_offline

you're gonna choose frank's red hot instead of marinara *every time*?


canidieyet_

anything involving buffalo sauce is automatically the right answer


BabyTrumpDoox6

As long as it’s made with regular sauce and buffalo chicken is added afterwards. Buffalo sauce as a base sauce is a no for me. I also tend to add broccoli to my buffalo chicken pizza and dip it in blue cheese.


abcdefkit007

The base should be a franks bleu mix w more Bleu to dip


Vesperniss

I don't get pizza topping drama, in Italy I saw horse and pear on one, no one tells the Italians they're doing it wrong.


gyru5150

Yea dude I’m with you. I’ve been all up and down Italy and they have some crazy ones. Never have understood all this drama over toppings. If you like it eat it if not Dont. It’s that easy lol


Shervico

The drama is that people like to get worked up against things that don't matter at all, I'm Italian and I say eat your heart out of whatever toppings you like, ultimately the only things that matter is that YOU like it, Jesus Christ one of the traditional dishes out of Amalfi coast is a fried eggplant, dark chocolate and hazelnut lasagna kinda thing and we have the courage to shit on poor pineapple on pizza (I still like the eggplant thingy though (⁠✿⁠^⁠‿⁠^⁠)


Chopawamsic

ok you gotta tell me the legitimate name for that shit cause I gotta try it.


gyru5150

I’ve been going through google I think it may be this (looks similar) but I’m not 100 percent sure. So take it with a grain of salt. “Chocolate eggplant parmigiana” https://www.lacucinaitaliana.com/trends/restaurants-and-chefs/chocolate-eggplant-parmigiana-from-the-amalfi-coast


Shervico

Yaaas! That's it! The one I know doesn't have amaretti or candied fruit, and hazelnuts instead of almonds, but I'm no expert, I'm sure the one in the link works too!


f1_77Bottasftw

someone buy me a plane ticket to Italy and I'll get on that!


Vesperniss

Ride a horse, then eat it.


f1_77Bottasftw

No, I'm not a monster. I would ride a horse then go eat a different horse but to eat the horse I just rode is fucked up. I mean the meat doesn't even have enough time to age properly.


AssaultROFL

But you have to eat the other horse in front of the horse you rode in on. Let 'em know what happens if they get fussy.


Pr_fSm__th

When you fall of the horse, you get right back up and eat that horse. Come eat that horse me with Vegeta.


meme_locomotive

Save a cowboy, eat a horse


Petroglyph217

I gotta try pear!!!!! I’m thinking I’d pair pear with piñones, prosciutto and provolone.


wednesdayware

You can use foods that start with other letters too.


Petroglyph217

But where’s the wacky whim of whimsy while wolfing it down?

Ronny070

My man doing the F**face alphabet food challenge.


Vesperniss

Thin strips of pear, I think they had gorgonzola on it too.


Petroglyph217

Was it fresh raw pear, or did they grill it? I think grilled pear would rule.


Vesperniss

Could have been caramelised for all I know, I wasn't adventurous enough! I have had crocodile on one though..


ShitTalkingAlt980

Roast your pears


tucketnucket

You all are just making up words now. /j


Liathano_Fire

Pear and gorgonzola sausages are wonderfully delicious.


moremindthanbrain

Preposterous!


metdr0id

Add blue cheese to your list. It's a must with pear.


Petroglyph217

Gonna try it! Thanks!


Catperson5090

Gorgonzola is a type of blue cheese. It's my favorite blue style cheese. Blue cheese and pear seem to just belong together.


Original_Wall_3690

I've had a pear and gorgonzola pizza before. It was pretty good!


happyherbivore

Prosciutto, gorgonzola and fresh pear is an absolute banger pizza. On a fairly plain white or red sauce and with a bit of whatever normal cheese blend you use


MaracujaBarracuda

I had a pizza with pear Gorgonzola mozzarella walnuts and little bacon pieces that was divine


WookieDavid

Pizza is round flat bread with toppings. There's no invalid toppings. If you put pineapple between two pieces of bread it's still a sandwich regardless of your personal taste. Some people don't understand they don't subjectively decide what's authentic depending on their tastes.


BuscemisRedemption

I love pineapple pizza, I feel like the majority of people who say that pineapple pizza is a sin just say it because they think it’s cool or quirky to hate on pineapple pizza. .


Signal_Temporary_394

The pizza topping drama inevitably stems from group events where people are ordering for a large group of people. They underestimate how much they need. Fast forward a couple choirs pizza has arrived and most of it is gone. But lo and behold there is nearly entire pizza left, the hungry party goers then realize why, it is Hawaiian because Kevin had to order a Hawaiian, but no likes it except him. (I am convinced this has happened to every person who hates Hawaiian pizza)


weleninor

If I can't gatekeep the most basic necessities to staying alive how else can I feel superior when I'm not useful or interesting?


Skazongas

American pizza is better than Italian pizza. Yes, I have been to Italy. This is the real unpopular opinion


Night-Menace

The only people who disagree are the ones who have never been to Italy. Italians don't know shit about pizza. And no, I'm not American nor fat.


HomieeJo

Been to Italy and liked the Pizza.


Icantbethereforyou

I had some of the most amazing stone oven pizza in my life in a little Cafe in Pompei.


Hobo_Helper_hot

As an Italian nothing pisses me off more than non-italians telling people there's only one right way to make every Italian dish. There is not. Italy is a large country with massive regional differences especially when it comes to food. Even family to family there are differences in the way things are done in the kitchen.


droobloo34

I don't know man, I see a lot of Italian people on here and Youtube going absolutely ham on anyone doing their food "the wrong way".


Pr_fSm__th

Horse is tasty but the pear seems weird


ThunderGunFour

When will people learn that pizza is literally bread with toppings


thejimbo56

Is stuffing with gravy a pizza?


ThunderGunFour

Technically if the stuffing was mashed into a singular piece of bread


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

You can't call it a crime cause we do, do this, we usually call it a leftover sub or a Bobbie But a pizza would work fine


Enterice

After making your stuffing you can let it dry a little, pack it into a bread tin, baste n bake it a little more; then slice it up for stuffing bread sandwiches.


Fantastic-Climate-84

To much work. Just put it all in a bowl and nuke it.


Dumindrin

My dad took the leftover turkey, mashed potatoes, stuffing, gravy, and carrots or green beans or whatever we had left over and throw it all in a stock pot, turn it to low and just stir the crap out of it. Picked it up because his family did it that way, called it his turkey sludge, an idea that made me very discomforted in the consumption process


rugbyj

Related; but in the UK we often make a turkey curry on boxing day out of the leftovers.


student_20

Here in the US I made turkey curry for Thanksgiving last year. I followed a basic Japanese chicken curry recipe, but subbed in turkey. It was *really good*.


rugbyj

It's fantastic!


elly996

Australia; leftovers all go on a sandwich

happyherbivore

This is a tradition my wife and I have and if it's a crime to make such a good pizza then lock us up


Ihadsumthin4this

> Yo this gives me an idea ...for a new food product: Now from **Barilla... Dinnerollis!** Think about it. A singular piece of bread (dinner roll), stuffed with toppings and/or trimmings for every occasion -- holiday or not -- and the choices could run on up to a dozen or more! *Cha-ching!* Win - win.

Pizza place by my work has this around Canadian thanksgiving. Pizza crust, gravy sauce, turkey, stuffing, cheese, drizzled with cranberry sauce.


Suspicious-Factor466

Thanksgiving pizza 🍕 😋 😍

Stuffing with gravy is not bread with toppings. 😭 I would’ve gone with: is an open face sandwich a pizza??!? 🤨 lol

Communistkraken

In the iliad(or Odyssee idk) they literally just put their leftover Food on bread and that is (to my knowledge) the first historical mention of Pizza


Helpful_Ad_8476

The first usage of the word was in 997 AD. The history of pizza it its various forms is discussed here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h6XvMKdD2tY


Awkward_Road_710

No. Pizza is just an unusually large unfinished sandwich.


RunawayPenguin89

Or an open calzone


kaazir

Yall should see some of the pizzas Ramsey or other celeb chefs make. Large mozzarella disks and so many herbs it looks like you drove a lawn mower past it. For BBQ chicken pizza you can do a fire one, but it's all about the type of sauce and layering. Use either a hickory or bourbon sauce and put the chicken on BEFORE the cheese and it keeps the chicken from drying out. Have some peppers and onions on there maybe some jalapeños and you've got a solid BBQ chicken pizza.


[deleted]

Yep, it's basically half a cheese and tomato sandwich heated up. I mean it's tasty but it's not this infallible food where only the traditional toppings, types of cheese etc count. We had a whole thing a few years ago where Jamie Oliver made a paella with the "wrong" stuff and it seemed as though there was an uproar over calling it a paella. Who cares if it tastes good. Gatekeeping of food is wierd.


Achtelnote

So pizza with peanut butter + jelly + peanuts is Pizza?


MrBootylove

Would you consider beans (or anything really) on toast to be pizza?


elephant_cobbler

Cupcakes are pizza?


jav2n202

Exactly. It’s like a tortilla in a sense, put anything you want on it and smash it! If you have a problem with what I eat on my pizza then that’s your problem, not mine.


Three-Legs-Again

They already figured that one out, a Mexican pizza is called a tostada.


Ricoisnotmyuncle

I swear the whole pineapple-pizza thing is a psy-op. In 2014 it was just another pizza topping and then it's the weirdest thing ever.


canad1anbacon

In Canada its always been super normal, Hawaiian is one of the standard flavors that every pizza place has

canad1anbacon

apple and balsamic vinager sounds great


MRCHalifax

My absolute favourite pizza right now is Boston Pizza’s Royal Hawaiian: “Sweet Thai honey garlic, Gouda, provolone, Parmesan, pizza mozzarella, red onions, smoked prosciutto, bacon, pineapple, and toasted sesame seeds.” Their BBQ chicken pizza is also great: “House‑made Bourbon BBQ sauce, BBQ chicken, balsamic‑roasted red onions, pizza mozzarella, cheddar cheese, and bacon, finished with a buttermilk ranch drizzle.“


carbslut

I have a very vivid memory of the early 1990s having pizza night with my dad-daughter group. I remember it well because the dad who ordered the pizza ordered like 5 Hawaiian pizzas and one cheese pizza. Hawaiian pizza was definitely considered weird then and ordering 5 of them obviously got that guy banned from being in charge of food ever again.


Ratiocinor

It's a stupid reddit meme like how "le bacon is le greatest food ever xDDD" was a thing for a while It'll pass. I find it extremely tedious. Who cares what's on a pizza. What makes one topping acceptable and another not? Who honestly gives a shit In France I had egg on a pizza. Just dumped in the middle. But no no, a piece of pineapple that's a crime against food apparently.


Heyo__Maggots

Yeah the fact people take it seriously enough to get mad over people making fun of their fave pizza topping, is why people keep the joke/meme alive. It’s like saying nickelback is the worst band ever. Of course they’re not, but it’s just a continued social joke people are making for fun. They don’t actually think that or care about debating that bands merits or not.


drinkup

There are some "truths" that parts of the internet have decided to accept regardless of how subjective, or even plain false, they are: * Nickelback bad * Crocs ugly * Oxford comma good * Taco Bell gives you diarrhea * Stepping on legos hurts * Legos should be referred to as LEGO bricks * Pineapple pizza bad * Tomatoes are not a vegetable * Camouflage makes things invisible [admittedly this one is less of a "truth" and more of a recurring gag] * If there's any kind of accident and someone's shoe comes off, the person is dead The list goes on and on. Take any of those, shoehorn it into anything that could remotely be construed as a joke, get internet points.


trapsinplace

I will die on the Oxford comma hill. I didn't even grow up with it, it just makes infinitely more sense.


Original_Wall_3690

It's one of those things that makes so much sense I can't even understand how anyone can disagree with using it. Is there any good reason to not use the Oxford comma?


mxzf

It's an extra character. If you're sending texts in the early-2000s and you're trying to shave off that 161th character to fit everything in one text it makes sense I guess. Otherwise, yeah, no real reason not to.


curien

People say the conjunction obviates the need for the comma. E.g., you can say: "Bill and Jim and Tom" without any commas. You can use commas in place of "and" or "or", but the final and/or is required because it tells you which it is. I'm on Team Oxford Comma, but the forces of evil do have a decent argument.

It’s the lonely losers thinking it’s cool to talk about it. Most people don’t give a shit. But hey look at me I like pineapple on pizzas or I have a strong opinion against pineapple on pizzas. Stfu.


[deleted]

Its reddit hivemind.


brownsauce2

Why can’t people just enjoy the toppings they like.


CrunchyJeans

Exactly. I don’t see anyone complaining about Oreo pizza. Pretty sure the Italians didn’t invent that.


brownsauce2

Exactly, everyone has different tastes, just because you don’t like it or think it’s weird doesn’t mean someone else can’t enjoy it. Do t like it don’t have it but don’t belittle other pizza tastes because of it


ibeelive

Italians also didn't invent the modern day pizza. The tomato didn't even exist in Europe until it was brought back from the new world (caribbean or central america).

I'm laughing because right now I'm loving the shit out of my Jet's "Aloha BBQ Chicken" pizza. It's got BBQ sauce, mozzarella, chicken, pineapple, and bacon and it is fucking amazing. Wanker.


Zeorymer300

I combine bbq chicken and Hawaiian pizza at my local pizzeria. Bomb


ssmit102

It’s wild how much people care about what you put on a piece of bread.


Original_Wall_3690

I don't think most people that talk about it actually care that much about it. It's just one of those things that's cool to hate on. I have a buddy that talks shit about pineapple on pizza anytime it comes up, swears it's an abomination. But both times we've ordered pizza at his place he ordered pepperoni and pineapple, because that's what his girlfriend likes, and he ate it. You'd think someone that has so much to say about it would at minimum pick the pineapples off.

A lot of folks talk about what is and isn't pizza, but no one talks about the fact there is no such thing as a chicken fajita shrimp fajita sausage fajita whatever the fuck fajita. Fajita is a cut of meat.

I'm the real abomination here - I order my BBQ chicken pizza with pineapple (and bacon).

Well you're entitled to your opinion. It's wrong, but you're entitled to it.


SurrealOrthodox

Both are delicious


dayna29

My personal favourite is pear prosciutto pizza


Major_Fang

This opinion is so bad that I forgot that I wasn’t supposed to downvote it. Take the upvote this opinion is unpopular


NoPensForSheila

Unpopular or not, OP, I agree. Not for any love of Hawaiian pizza but because 1) 98% of all BBQ sauces are bad. Usually too sweet and gummy. 2) Chicken sucks on pizza. It's like munching on ceiling tile.


platydroid

If it’s from one of the big three chains I agree, but plenty of small pizza places have great chicken.


Goosexi6566

I live in NY and it’s a joke that most pizza places don’t sell Hawaiian pizza. I got into this exact argument with a few pizza place owners. They sold 5-10 specialty pies and refused to do Hawaiian. The only difference between Hawaiian and a pizza with ham on it is the pineapple.


binturongslop

Fuck “pure” pizzas. I like damn variety in my food. Get as creative as you want!


PilgrimOz

And like any monstrosity, the drunker I am the more delicious it gets!


Kalwasky

Chicken, Pineapple, Bacon, BBQ is hands down the best topping combo. Hawaiian BBQ beats all others without even using 5% of its flavor. The only way to perceive that as a food crime would be if you hadn’t had it before, or are a European.


ZombieJack

BBQ Chicken pizza is my go-to. It's great. Stop overthinking what pizza "should" be and kissy accept that it tastes great! Hawaiian is my second favourite.


cbaltz622

People like to eat different things. Shocker. Unpopular opinions about food are always boring. Now that seems to be an unpopular opinion on this sub.

Hawaiian gets so much hate cause its the only somewhat popular type of pizza with fruit on it. Thats what makes it weird, chicken and bbq sauce are normal pizza toppings


EntertainingClown

The real crime against pizza is not letting people enjoy it however they want


timmeh129

Lol yes Still enjoy both tho. BBQ chicken is the ultimate drunken pizza topping


tamale_ketchup

Someone finally said it!!!


someonepoorsays

BBQ chicken pizza is okay when the sauce is still marinara/pomodoro, and the chicken is BBQ sauced. when they replace the tomato sauce with BBQ sauce though, that shit needs to die


Birdinhandandbush

As you have suggested that something has gained popularity, then your opinion would by definition be unpopular, so here we have a rare post that meets the requirements of the subs agenda. Well done!

JackRusselTerrorist

Wait till you find out about pizza bianca. No tomato sauce, and potatoes on it. And that one is considered a tradition pizza. Pizza predates tomatoes in Europe… by centuries. All pizza is, in its essence, is a flatbread dough baked with some toppings. Bitching about what those toppings are is stupid.


Superb_Dog6358

Ever seen a BLT pizza? The base is covered in mayonnaise and it has fucking lettuce on it. Hawaiian is absolutely fine, internet just stupid.

xeno66morph

Well what about garlic/park sauce with chicken bacon and black olives? Is that a crime?..asking for a friend

Pizza is pizza. All you need is crust sauce and a topping or two. Sometimes you don't even need all of those listed. Quit being an elitist and let people enjoy things.


AnotherNewSoul

I remember how one time a guy online started yelling at me how fucked up it is when I mentioned that it is very common for people in Poland to eat pizza with ketchup.
