People, ffs, live and let live
Especially since the origin of pizza is “let’s just use up what is left in the fridge cuz we’re broke”. it’s the elitist gate keeping asshole who deserves all the shame in this scenario
But did the Italians back then have fridges and pineapples?
Not all food that gets cooked on a pizza needs a fridge. But either way you’re skipping the point. it’s literally leftovers combined, with or without a fridge. Probably even more so without a fridge if food goes bad faster.
The point is it’s a peasant food made of literally anything because scarcity.
So in all fairness to to the benefit it provides there should be no rule that there has to be a pineapple or not.
It's.... Humor
And real life experiences with intolerable people is what humor can be built on. There is no rule on that. Stories can be based on reality.
Ok, what is the joke? I think the creator thinks that it’s funny to have an extreme reaction (murder) to a minor infraction (liking the wrong kind of food).
If you (like the creator) believe that the idea of “liking the wrong foods” will resonate with an audience as a social infraction. Well, ffs let people live their lives.
The premise for the joke is obnoxious.
I am pretty sure the woman in the comic is the self-insert of the creator and they think it is funny that people have an extreme reaction to the author's minor infraction and that you should let people live their lives.
The joke is that eating pizza backwards is one step too far.
