Con has to prove that putting pineapple pizza a wrong of some sort
Pro has to refute Con's arguments
Pineapple on pizza is absolutely disgusting
Waste of resources
Unhealthy controversy for pizza in general
- Pineapple is a fruit
- Tomato is a fruit
- Tomato goes on pizza
- Pineapple is okay for pizza
This statement is highly opinion based, with no factual evidence.
unless you have a study showing otherwise.
Check this list. Who's number one?
Tomato goes on pizza
Did you even read what I wrote right after that?
As a matter of fact, I do. It's in the sources of my first argument.
Pineapple pizza being controversial
Tomato doesn't go on pizza it goes in pizza.
I did. Notice how "3rd most disliked pizza topping" is also an opinion in a way. Just people the majority of people don't like it, doesn't make it wrong. There are plenty of example of this, and since this does not prove pineapple on pizza is wrong, then this falls short of your BoP.
Not what I meant. I was clearly referring to a study showing how pineapple pizza wastes resources.
The site claims to use the word "influential" in a good way. It even claims pineapple pizza as having "one of pizza’s most divisive flavors."
- tending to cause disagreement or hostility between people.
No need for technicality.
As a Chicagoan, I am very passionate on Hot Dogs and Pizza
Pro source outweighs CON because it is a direct refute to the point, while CON's is talking about influence, which does not mean anything due to the fact that the source is invalid it is called divisive, therefore that source is turned and CON gets point.
CON does not deep enough into his source and instead really just says, look at it. CON's point that Tomato is in the Pizza outweighs since a contrasting flavor overall in Pizza can be acceptable, as it used in Pizza. I feel as if the BoP by CON is never contested enough by PRO in the case and does not go after the points enough. I think the Pineapple as a waste of sources is a weak argument overall, so I don't evaluate any sides. I think the BoP is better defended by CON, so I will give args to CON
Honestly the debate did not get deep enough for me to clearly say if there is something wrong or not.
The most standout argument I would say is that pineapple pizzas just go into the garbage. It so wanted to be a great argument, but made no sense. It's about like saying some people prefer steak, so salads should not be an option.
The defense of tomato is an interesting point. I've personally had sliced tomato as a topping many times, but both debaters seemed to believe that tomato only goes on pizza in sauce form... A problem here is that just because it's accepted, would not mean there's nothing wrong with it; especially since con did not make the argument that pineapple is wrong for being a fruit; and it's an apples to oranges comparison anyway.
So the one point of the debate I will say has a clear lead is the sources. Con flipped pro's source to be in his favor. Perhaps were the debate to have gone on another round, pro might have shown that such matters only make pizza more popular as a whole, but as is, pro's own source was used to imply there might be something wrong with pineapple on pizza. Had the debate gone another round and such a point was not raised, I would likely be giving arguments to con (I give less weight to things in the final round after no one can respond).
I don't buy Con's argument that pineapple on pizza is a waste of resources, Pro notes that Con would have to prove that too much pineapple pizza is being produced in relation to what's being consumed, he never does this.
The BoP for pro is to prove there is nothing wrong with pineapple on pizza. Con proved to me that pineapple on pizza caused unnecessary controversy for being so divisive. Funnily enough, it turns out that Pro's source intended to rebut this merely supported Con's statement. Pro's source also just says pineapple pizza is influential, this doesn't address the statement that pineapple on pizza is controversial as Con points out. So Con demonstrated that, despite how influential pineapple on pizza is, it's divisive and causes unhealthy controversy. Therefore I'm lead to believe that there is at least one thing wrong with pineapple pizza.
had to drop a vote
lol!
In the wise words of Greta Thunberg: "How dare you!"
LoL.
"there is at least one thing wrong with pineapple pizza."
EVERYTHING
Eh, green peppers and mushrooms aren't for me
Vote con!

This is my type of pizza
Well, the Hawaiian pizza isn't that bad if you take the pineapple off. I usually picked it off when my family got it.
Ham and bacon are nice >:D
Of course I put pineapple on my pasta!
Kidding, I don't.
But would you rather eat this:

Absolutely. Check out some previous comments to squid. Had a good discussion with him earlier.
Do I have your permission to use that as one of my main points?
It is garb garb. End of story.
Ok, give me your expert opinion then.
I am an expert. You can interview me for my professional opinion.
god im screwed. I can't find any real reliable points :(
I don't care if it is rainbow-colored, keep it off the pizza!
Do you put pineapple in your pasta as well???
Eat pineapple on the side? No!
Pineapple proves a contrast to the pizza sauce's taste!
And not only in flavor, but colour too!
But it isn't when you cook it! Eat it on the side if you want, but for goodness sake, keep it off the pizza!
No no no! You're doing it all wrong. The pineapple is supposed to be fresh!
The pineapple is supposed to be juicy and sweet. When you cook it on a pizza, it gets dried out and the pizza becomes unsavory.
Bro... wut?
Dude, pineapple is like a cooling refresh taste on the soft and savory pizza. Taste contrast. It's good.
That is beyond any possible doubt.
It is scientifically proven that they also like the sound of nails on chalk board, they have higher chances of developing schizophrenia, and they are big fans of smooth jazz.
Truly sickening people. They should all receive 30-40 lashings per pizza defaced.
The experts have spoken. Pineapple pizza is a travesty. Sadly, there is no debating with its demented devotees. There is no hope for such people. They probably like unfrosted Poptarts, Christmas Shoes, and chewing nails.
Lmao, made my night.
Pineapple on pizza is one of the most grave forms of blasphemy. I used to work at Pizza Hut, so I have much experience in this field.
Oh, it's on.
You're debating if its okay to put pineapple on pizza. Why are you even bothering with a BoP?
Its objectively not, just so we're clear.
