But nothing has sustained the hate like Hawaiian pizza, the most recognizable pie that features chunks of the divisive fruit. Those who live in the Northeast or are older than 55 hate pineapple toppings even more. Celebrities, politicians, chefs and even minimum-wage pizzamakers count themselves as members of this pineapple hate group. There are celebrity endorsements, too: The Rock digs Hawaiian pizza; he says, “pineapple on pizza is MY JAM.” For what it’s worth, Justin Bieber loves it, too. “I’m worried that I’m going to get lulled into a false sense of comfort with pineapple pizza,” Powers said.
