Really? You'd think that the forces of Hell would make their corruption a lot more grandiose. Go big or go home and all that.

Leave it out of the fridge for a few hours too long or something!

Now, I'm curious about the forum's opinion on this topic... personally, I'm divided

Pineapple on pizza is cool, stop complaining.

The road to heck is paved with Hawaiian Gold...

He doesn’t know they’re coming here
so Steward’s on the slower path;
Pineapple on his pizza top
and no bubbles in his next bath.
‘Masterchef Pandemonium’
is won by Euodant each year
for his way of blending spices
with the tense tang of sweet, sweet, fear.
The road to ruin has small turns,
to follow it you need know how.
Euodant as a TV Chef?
Heck, guys, we’re really cooking now!

Not a first choice, but the hatred feels unreasonable. Sweet and savory often do well together. Perhaps cooking off both the ham and pineapple before baking the pizza could yield better results?

Very fair. One rancid or spoiled ingredient could ruin the entire thing at least.

yep. and pineapple is kinda the biggest culprit of that because so many pizza places let them dry out to much or the like.

Disclaimer: I don't actually think pineapple on pizza is bad. I have never tried it, but I totally would as soon as I get the chance.

I just thought it'd be funny (the idea of taking a first small step into sins before bigger ones), and I went with this.
Also I'm Italian and I just need to commit to the bit sometimes.

I have zero standards, I will suck down any pineapple pizza that is put in front of me. Pizza is pizza.

You can put anything on a Pizza. The question is whether you should.

The actual worst 3 I've seen/had:
3) A pizza in France that was loaded with sugar
2) Pizzas in Latvia where everyone uses ketchup instead of tomato sauce. Ew
1) In an Italian town, saw a restaurant that had pizza with nutella. I did NOT try this one

I’d love to see Steward’s next step be to steal a lollipop from Negabreel, who Eudoant forces to dress for the occasion, like an old timey English kid in a little sailor outfit.

It's actually really good; one of the only pizzas I've had.

Also. REALLY good page. Didn't think it was a guest strip at first. ^^

Yeah, I've had pineapple on pizza and it's pretty good.
But I can understand the weirdness of sweet and savory being put together like that.
I've yet to try any other sweet and savory food combinations and I still doubt they work in general.

Also, yeah, I didn't think it was a guest strip for a couple seconds at first either...the HP art style was matched so perfectly, holy cow. :o

All I have to say is dang did they fool me. It took me until the last panel to figure out this was a guest strip.

Here’s my two cents. Pineapple on pizza (from what I’ve had), is really bad. I respect those who do like it, but I don’t...HOWEVER, unless I grew up in a weird household, I have NEVER seen pineapple cut like that before for any reason, nor have I ever seen it cut like that anywhere else. I’m probably just weird (I come from a weird place after all), but to me it’s like cutting up a banana the long way :lol:

Oh, wow, that's already so hard as first simple step to become demoniac! :shock: Eheheh, Eudoant must be really serious to force you to do something like that, Steward. :P You don't seem to like pineapple pizza, Steward, and if so, I'm with you about that. ;)
Very nice comic strip, Federick, and you nailed Rick's style very well! :D

No, the comic is completely in the right here: pineapple on pizza is a sin. You have taken steps towards heck, now you must atone. :lol:

Also, Federick, that is an astoundingly similar styling to Rick Griffin himself. Honestly, if it didn't say that it was a guess strip I would have been fooled 100%.

I honestly don’t really get why people would put pineapple on their pizza and what the appeal is but I wouldn’t necessarily say that it is evil though that is just me.

Pineapple pizza aside, I must complement you on the comic, you defiantly picked up Rick's style. I'm sure I wasn't the only one whose first thought upon seeing the page was "Rick's back!"

I had a street pizza in Prague back in 1990 that I realized had baked saurkraut on it. I did not finish.

As much as I want to fight this, it'd probably end up taking up half a page on its own. People who hate pineapple on pizza are just weird like that.

It's just a matter of preference but some people don't like a fruit taste on something that is supposed to be tangy.

Wonderful work, Federick! The match to Rick's style is absolutely uncanny. Makes me wonder what your art looks like when you're not trying to match another creator's style.
