"Let's be clear: in New York, 'cheese pizza' does not exist,"
"I hope people know I'm just messing around. Pizza should be one of the great unifiers. Order it however you like, using whatever language you want."
"I enjoy pineapple on pizza, especially paired with some spicy and salty toppings. Pepperoni plus pickled jalapeño plus pineapple, or pineapple plus hot soppressata, for instance,"
Ordering a 'cheese pizza' in New York City provokes strong reactions because locals call it a 'plain slice' and consider the term a misnomer. The reaction includes an acknowledgment that the comment was made playfully and that pizza should be ordered however individuals prefer. New Yorkers treat pizza culture and language seriously, including eating a folded slice on the go rather than using utensils. Pineapple on pizza can work when balanced with spicy and salty toppings, with examples like pepperoni plus pickled jalapeño and pineapple or pineapple with hot soppressata. A memorable pizza was experienced in Colombia.
