Portre Posted January 15 #1 Share Posted January 15 A pizzeria is charging $125 for a standard Hawaiian to deter customers from choosing the controversial pineapple topping. Lupa Pizza in Norwich, Norfolk, has made their opinion on the topping choice very clear by slapping the hefty price tag for the dish on their Deliveroo menu. The cheeky menu description reads: “Yeah, for $125 you can have it. Order the champagne too! Go on you Monster!” When asked why they decided to charge such a large fee, the owner’s answer is simple — they hate pineapple on pizza. Pizzeria charging whopping $125 per pie to deter customers from this controversial topping Why put it on the menu? 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Resume Posted January 15 #3 Share Posted January 15 4 minutes ago, Portre said: Why put it on the menu? In the off chance some idiot will order it. When pricing the C-8 Corvette, I discovered Chevy asked a surcharge for certain interior/exterior combinations to discourage what they deemed as too difficult to sell on the used market. Stupid. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bendy Demon Posted January 16 #13 Share Posted January 16 I am not a fan of having anything sweet on a pizza unless it is a dessert pizza but that is just me, some people like it and others don't; however to punish potential customers with horridly inflated prices on a pizza with pineapple just because the business owners don't like it is unethical and probably illegal. However I am not sure this article is real... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don't like it don't order it. It just shows how easy it is to influence opinion. In work we end up having these conversations, and the other one is KFC Gravy or Beans. Apparently the "right" answer is gravy, I’ve actually watched people who prefer beans say gravy because they perceive the majority of the group going with gravy. - and we are talking about grown **** men here aged between 32 and 55. Gammon and Pineapple is another controversial one. Its a good laugh and banter at the end of the day. But as i say i live in a world where i don’t have to choose. I can have it all. Edit to add. I like Hawaiian Pizza. I switch between that and the hot and spicy on the menu. Edited January 16 by stevewinn 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
