Is pineapple on pizza acceptable?
These are all questions that have been pondered by some of history’s greatest minds. When it comes to the last of those, it’s more a matter of preference than an absolute truth but pineapple on pizza still has the power to spark intense debate.
Monday, June 27 is International Pineapple Day – give it up for the tropical plant fans out there who knew that already.
To mark the occasion, Butler’s Pizza is giving away FREE pineapple on pizza to anybody who orders on Monday. There are also seven pizza parties to be won, where seven lucky customers will each receive four FREE medium pizzas with four toppings on each.
Before we get to how you enter and the Ts and Cs, let’s revisit some celeb responses to the pineapple on pizza debate via People:
Jimmy Kimmel – “Pineapples do not belong on pizza. I don’t care where you’re from. Any pizza that tastes better with pineapple wasn’t a good pizza. It’s not even a pizza it’s like a pizza colada.”
Paris Hilton – “I actually like it. I love Hawaiian pizza. I think it’s really good.”
Justin Trudeau – “I have a pineapple. I have a pizza. And I stand behind this delicious Southwestern Ontario creation. #TeamPineapple.”
Justin Bieber – “Pineapple on pizza is good, you guys don’t like that?” Bieber said while a guest on the Jay Leno Show in 2011. Leno, meanwhile, strongly disagreed replying, “That’s the only part of [Bieber’s documentary] that disturbed me, the rest of it is really good.”
Gordon Ramsay – “You don’t put f—ing pineapple on pizza,” the chef famously declared, ending the debate for many Hell’s Kitchen fans.
Dwayne Johnson – “As for my pizza toppings – keep in mind, I’m the guy who likes to put tequila and brown sugar in my oatmeal, so pineapple on pizza is MY JAM – with ham.”
Stanley Tucci – “It’s so repellent, were I to think of it, I might not survive,” Tucci described his immense dislike for the topping. “It’s just gross.”
Okay, Stanley, take it down a notch.
It’s a debate and there is no need to go so hard. Also, can we get him and Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson in the same room?
Now that you’ve had sufficient time to run through the pros and cons of both arguments, and you’re no doubt longing for pizza, let’s find out more about winning a pizza party.

Here’s how to enter, one more time for those at the back:
- Let Butler’s know if pineapple belongs on pizza when you order and you will be entered into the lucky draw.
- Entries close midnight on Wednesday, July 31, 2022.
- Seven lucky customers will be picked, and will each receive four FREE medium pizzas and four toppings on each.
- Butler’s will notify the winners by Thursday, August 1, 2022
Boom, it’s a pizza party.
And yes, should you be so inclined, you can exclude pineapple from the list of toppings you want at your party. You make the rules.
Look at that, we made it all this way without getting the annoying ‘Pineapple Pen‘ song stuck in your head.
Sorry, not sorry.
