I believe that "deconstructed" is the term the chefs use on the cooking shows.
Phyeah, strategic marketing chefs do.

It looks like Pizza Hut in Taiwan wants to turn pizza into an April Fools Day event.

Whenever Pizza Hut Taiwan releases a new flavor, the internet braces itself. In my decade covering the island’s food scene, I’ve noticed few dishes spark as much excitement—and outrage—as their pies. One commenter on Reddit called their 2022 scalloped pizza with Oreos around the edge, and deep-fried chicken and calamari studded throughout the middle, “a crime against humanity.” Another called the 2023 April Fools’ special, a ring made out of dough with nothing in the middle, “dumb.”

The Oreo-crusted pie sold out in three days. The giant ring was the best-selling specialty pizza in Taiwanese Pizza Hut history. Contrary to popular disbelief, they seem to know what they’re doing.

The old controversy


(presumably it's a successful publicity exercise).

Is it an old controversy because pineapple on pizza is divisive, or because over pricing on a topping to discourage people from ordering it is anti-capitalistic?

Or - and hear me out - pick off the olives and enjoy the fucking pizza. (Ooh, garlic sauce...)
I looove olives on my pizza! My favorite combo is ham, pineapple, and black olives on a pan pizza.

And garlic dipping sauce for the win!

I have no problem with people having olives on THEIR OWN pizza. I often have them put on half a pizza for Mrs Quandry. But anyone who thinks you can "pick them off" and the pizza will somehow taste like it wasn't baked with lye saturated brine clearly hates humanity and does not deserve pizza.
