DiGiorno Is Dropping a Pizza Topped With Both Pineapple and Pickle in an Effort to Enrage the Entire Internet

Which side are you on?

If you thought ordering pineapple on your pizza was divisive, just wait until you hear what DiGiorno is cooking up next.

Following the viral success of #PicklePizza, a hashtag that has more than 16 million views on TikTok to date, the fine folks at DiGiorno thought it would be a good idea to bring that creation to life. But, rather than just present a pizza that would surely enrage people who think pickles have no business being on a pizza, the brand is splitting this pizza 50-50, topping the opposite side with pineapple because, sure, let’s make everyone mad while we’re at it.

According to a statement provided to Food & Wine, the pizza is made with “a hand-tossed crust, creamy garlic sauce, and mozzarella cheese,” plus those all-important toppings. While we’d love to say we all get to try it, we can’t. Because DiGiorno knows this is just too explosive for a true mass-market release.

Pineapple on Pizza Is Actually Great, if You Do It Right Instead, DiGiorno will give people the chance to snag one frozen pizza for free at shopdigiorno.goodnes.com via weekly drops. But please note that the website will not go live until September 5, so bookmark the URL for future use.

The pies will be limited to one per person, only available while supplies last, and shipping will only be available within the United States. We are very sure these pickle and pineapple frozen pizzas will go quickly.

DIGIORNO Pineapple Pickle Pizza COURTESY OF DIGIORNO PIZZA If you’re someone who absolutely loves this pizza topping combination (like we do), you can score some pineapple pickle pizza merch along with the pies. That includes genuinely snazzy bucket hats, shirts, and, of course, pickleball paddles.

Somehow, this isn’t the only wild creation to come out of DiGiorno’s headquarters of late. In 2022, the brand released Eggs Benedict Inspired, Sausage & Gravy, and Cinnamon Roll breakfast pizzas, and in July, they dropped the news that pizza vending machines will dispense fully cooked DiGiorno pizzas at places like Walmart and on college campuses around the country soon. However, you’ll have to BYOP (bring your own pickles) for this one.

Wash it down with a Bud Light, while you are taking a bubble bath. To complete the Audrey Hepburn motif, have a neighbor who looks like Mickey Rooney trying to do a Chinese accent.

Who cares? No one has to get the damn thing.

Pepperoni on a thin crust NY style pizza will do it for me. Period, end of story.

Looks good.

Canadian bacon and pineapple is perfect. Pickles will ruin it.

It is. It’s a favorite in the nully nest.

I'm glad DiGiorno is dropping it. They should never have had it.

Don’t bother with the banana pizza, the sauce totally overwhelms any flavor of banana.

Voice of experience...

As if people shouldn’t already be outraged about dough conditioners and hydrogenated oils.

DiGiorno Enraged the Entire Internet........Tanzanians were offended
b/c nobody knew how to say,”Please pass the pickle pizza” in Swahili.

Harrumph!

“Drop” used to mean “discontinuing.” Now in negro worship-land, “drop” be a word fo’ introducing. Because we all have to get new words from the people who are the worst at using them.

Pineapple, Canadian bacon, onion green pepper and mushrooms = one yummy pizza

(For what it is worth, I enjoy Hawaiian Pizza...:)

Reminder bump - our freezer doesn't handle full size pizzas (may have to fix that) so if we go frozen for pizza that's dinner that night. We rarely do because we've got Jett's pizza up the street and they deliver.

Jett's 10 with extra Italian sausage. Pizza sauce, premium mozzarella, pepperoni, ham, hamburger, Italian sausage, bacon, mushrooms, onions, green peppers & black olives. Thick crust. Trust me.

Pineapple? No big deal. Plus pickles? Don't know but I think I'd survive. That's my main interest, at least for dinner.

Pineapple, Canadian Bacon and green bell pepper. It’s called a Hawaiian pizza. So good!

Pineapple and anchovies or nothing. DiGiorno is the best frozen pizza by far.

I like pineapple. I like pickles. I like pizza.

Not together, though.
