Its not just Polynesian cuisine. Over much of East Asia pineapple is a common ingredient in meals. Its a classic way to soften tough meat, especially pork. An enzyme in pineapple will turn meat to mush given long enough. Is it that softening of the meat that some people dislike?

I say, if people eat surströmming, hákarl, smalahove, and mämmi, they can let others eat their pizza with pineapple toppings at peace, too. :P

Probably the taste. I like pineapple both as fruit or part of a warm meal.

But pineapple pizza remains an abomination.

I'm completely ambivalent to pineapple on pizza, raises no emotional response with me but I also fail to understand why people get so damned upset when somebody publishes their 'take' on a classic dish.
Pineapple goes *great* with all sorts of pork/pig meat, it doesn't seem a terrible combination to put it on a pizza but by the same token I can't remember the last time I ate pizza with pineapple.
I reckon it's some sort of manufactured outrage, might even be traceable back to a marketing campaign somewhere.
