Pineapple on pizza is always hotly debated, but do you think Pineapple belongs on a burger?

I'm Australian, and burger with the lot where I come from involves the following Bun Bacon Egg Lettuce Tomato Pineapple Beetroot Meat Onion Sauce maybe. That's the minimum you expect anyway
I promise y'all's lives will change once you understand that fruit goes with meat. It's really not a radical concept. Pineapple can go on burger, because pineapple can go with basically any meat. put it on some candied bacon, have some with your christmas ham, make a pineapple chutney to top your next steak, idk the food science behind why this shit works but it does.
Sweet and Savoury w/ some acid is a great flavour pairing, bonus points for heat. Some peppers themselves have a decidedly fruity flavour, scotch bonnets and habaneros come to mind, and those are used with meat all the time, citrus + chilis (powdered or fresh) is pretty much the core of almost any marinade I make.
For me? Pineapple + Peameal Bacon + Pickled Jalapeños are a great pizza pairing (also do a balsamic, shallot w/ goat cheese and prosciutto one, gets fresh arugula on it).
If it tastes good, why not?
My favorite burger growing up was the "Hawaiian" burger at a restaurant called Islands, it was AMAZING! Fresh grilled pineapple, Swiss, and teriyaki sauce that gets messy in the tastiest way imaginable. They published the recipe online, it's super easy to make at home.
We do something similar at the bar I work at for our Hawaiian burger. Grilled pineapple and Canadian bacon, Swiss, and some BBQ sauce. Easy to make and tastes great!
People out here gate keeping pizzas and hamburgers like they are trying to hold a bar mitzvah at a Burger King.
100% yes, with the caveat that it has to be fresh, grilled pineapple. Slap a canned pineapple ring on there and baby Jesus will cry.
100% passionately do yes
Pineapple, sure. Pineapple bacon beetroot egg ??? What on earth is going on!
I don't care for pineapple on a burger but a fried egg on a works burger is chef's kiss. The rest of the world is missing out.
Don't knock it until you've tried it. It's magnificent.
F you, now I need to buy pineapples to get an informed opinion.
No, mostly because I don't really like pineapple in general so it just detracts from anything it's added to. I'll still eat stuff with pineapple if that's what's available, but I'd never intentionally get it for myself.
Everyone is welcome to enjoy what they enjoy but for me, on a burger
Egg: no Tomato: no Pineapple: no Beetroot: no Sauce: depends on the sauce
God's own burger.
Grape jelly on pizza is heavenly.
Get fucked mate, there's enough problems in the world already with out you making more.
