This kid. I fucking can’t. First day of 2nd grade, pizza dinner out tonight. They tried pineapple on pizza for the first time. Looked up at me, grim-faced, dour-eyed. Through gritted teeth: “I am a victim of pineapple.”

pineapple on pizza is best when balanced with strong savory like anchovy ;)

Years ago I retaliated against roommates constantly stealing my pizza by ordering pineapple anchovy out of spite. And it was insanely delicious and has been my favorite ever since.

Kids are very sensitive to atrong flavors. They may eventually grow to like it. I hated sushi till my 20s.
