At the Risk of Incurring Marital Discord...

There's something not right about broccoli on a pizza.

Broccoli never belongs on pizza. Indeed, it's not even a foodstuff.

Oh no!

I was totally on the same page with you fast-food wise up to this point: Five Guys burgers are highly satisfying.

But I'm a big fan of Pepperoni & Broccoli pizza. You better blanch the broccoli before it goes on there... otherwise it tastes like cabbage and is way too tough. But oh man... that's my #1 choice if done well.

In Treehouse of Horror XI, Homer Simpson is killed by eating broccoli.

Well, I just came back from a fancy restaurant where there they served a "basil creme brulée" as a dessert...

The funny thing is, after you overcome the idea that you were eating a pizza margheritta flan, the stuff actually tasted good...

Eww. Broccoli on pizza is SO wrong.

[identity profile] airporter.livejournal.com 2008-08-18 01:29 am (UTC)(link)
I'm thinking this one requires compromise - one time pizza, the next something that resembles it but includes contentious vegetables.

Broccoli does not belong on a Pizza. That is just wrong.

[identity profile] trulygrateful.livejournal.com 2008-08-18 01:52 am (UTC)(link)
While I agree wholeheartedly on the matter, there certainly are worse things one could put on a pizza.... no?

;)

for some of us, that would include quadropeds.
(actually, I don't care for broccoli on pizza either)

You're probably one of those who poo-poos anchovies on pizzas too :)

[identity profile] markgarciachris.livejournal.com 2008-08-18 02:55 am (UTC)(link)
I'm totally with you on this one.

Because I'm a self-sacrificing kind of guy, I'll tell you what I'm going to do:

If either of your husbands wants broccoli on his pizza, you send him out here, and we'll spend a few days stuffing him so full (of broccoli on pizza) that he'll never want it again.

Of course, we'd have to find some way to work off all of those calories.

And we'd have to use gluten-free crusts for Kent. But it would be a small price to pay for the look of jou upon his innocent face.

Sardines. Sardines do not belong in the human food chain.

Now if I could only convince Randy of that.

[identity profile] furrbear.livejournal.com 2008-08-18 03:47 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, AMEN!

No F'ing way.

Same for pineapple and SPAM.

[identity profile] furrbear.livejournal.com 2008-08-18 03:49 am (UTC)(link)
But are anchovies OK?

I love anchovies on a loaded pizza.

[identity profile] allanh.livejournal.com 2008-08-18 03:52 am (UTC)(link)
Anchovies, too. You and Randy can go grab a separate table and stuff yourselves on anchovies, sardines, or anything else y'all like.

[identity profile] furrbear.livejournal.com 2008-08-18 03:57 am (UTC)(link)
I would never put sardines on a pizza. Maybe a cracker.

Broccoli on pizza sounds really good. But then, I love broccoli. I wonder if you could get broccoli & pineapple? Hmm.

[identity profile] airporter.livejournal.com 2008-08-18 05:34 am (UTC)(link)
SPAM??!!

There's inventive and then there's just wrong.

Peanut butter.

Hawai'i - it's pineapple and (Canadian Bacon and/or SPAM)

*shudder*

[identity profile] airporter.livejournal.com 2008-08-18 05:56 am (UTC)(link)
I don't normally eat Hawaiian-style pizza as sweets on pizza don't work for me, may I say that at least Canadian Bacon is real food. I've never really known what SPAM is truly, but it never actually made it onto my "must eat" list.

Of course, much information is available at www.spam.com Quoting from their FAQ: "In a perfect situation, SPAM® could last forever."

"In a perfect situation, SPAM® could last forever."

Scary, no?

What's worse than broccoli on your pizza?

The Holocaust.


There. I said it.

I had to do a search for quadropeds and all I got was a picture of a buffalo.

Does this mean, in general terms, any meat from a four-legged animal?

I had lunch with two men that had only garlic and anchovies (with cheese and sauce).

Guess who didn't get a farewell kiss?

(I had my own entree)

Does 9/11 trump the Holocaust?

Yep. It's the term used by both husbands to identify my form of vegetarianism.

[identity profile] trulygrateful.livejournal.com 2008-08-18 12:52 pm (UTC)(link)
LOLOLOL!

My "form" of vegetarianism?

Like it's a disease?

Wait... I get it... nowwwwwwwwww.

Yeah!

"innocent face"???

Are we talking about the same Kent here? He hasn't been innocent in decades

I hear Spam sushi is very popular in Hawaii...

Hey! That was never proven!

Ummm ....

You guys are not going to incur marital discord from Broccoli Zza. Way too many larger issues (lol) to create marital discord.

Now uncooked onions on Zza, that's reason for separation.
