My fellow Americans, what goes on a Hawaiian pizza where you’re from?

  1. Canadian bacon or ham

    Pineapple

    Cheese

    Pizza sauce

    I don’t think there’s any other style.

  2. Ham, or actually SPAM if you’re being accurate, and pineapple.

    For all the rest of the details you can pretty much “wing it.”

  3. Canadian bacon (sort of like a diced ham), pineapple, cheese (usually a low moisture shredded mozzarella), and a tomato based pizza sauce.

  4. Pineapple and Canadian bacon. And then you throw it straight in the trash where it belongs.

  5. Pineapple, ham, cheese and sauce. Personally I think it’s gross, but to each their own

  6. Ham and pineapple at the major chains. Local places might make it but it’s not necessarily on the menu. If you want something approximating Hawaiian cuisine, there are places serving Americanized sushi that also offer poke bowls, if you don’t want to hit the supermarket and get both spam and more fresh ingredients to make something relatively accurate.

  7. I will never forgive the Canadians for brainwashing the world into thinking that it’s ok to put pineapple on pizza. **NEVER.**

  8. Canadian Bacon, Pineapple, and Cheese.

    If I am wanting a pizza with pineapple I typically set my own toppings. I like to get Pepperoni, Bacon (American bacon), Onions, Bell Peppers, and Pineapple.

  9. The real question is… what exactly types of different answers do you expect? This is like asking what people what things do they put in a blueberry pancake

  10. The usual. Add almond slivers and smoked Gouda cheese.

    Local place calls it the Samoan.

  11. Traditionally it’s ham, bacon, pineapple

    Personally for me it’s pineapple and bacon. I absolute hate ham.

  12. Around here you’re far more likely to find *ham* and pineapple than Canadian bacon and pineapple for some reason.

    Plus canned pineapple, cheese, and red sauce.

    I get everyone has their preferences, but I’ve always been puzzled by the sheer revulsion some people express regarding Hawaiian pizza.

  13. I just don’t ‘get’ the Hawaiian Pizza – pineapple, really?
    To each his/her own.

  14. The best pizza place in my town puts tomato sauce, three cheeses, pineapple chunks, spam cubes, and jalapeños. It’s amazing and now I’m salivating.

  15. I work at a pizza place, id say once every 6 months i crave hawaiian pizza. Red sauce, mozz, smoked ham, pineapple, scallions, and i like to add serranos

  16. The standard is ham, pineapple, cheese, tomato sauce. But I like to add grilled chicken and jalapenos.

  17. I did a take on a Hawaiian at the last Italian place I worked at.

    It was our basic pie (Neapolitan style, wood oven fired) topped with Serrano ham, grilled pineapple, and poblano peppers. It was finished with pickled shallots and a drizzle of garlic chili oil.
