Minnaia wrote:Does pineaple belong to pizza? Imagine a group of hardened nomads, led by the legendary Aethercrest the Hero, gathered around a campfire under the starry night sky. They are used to travel, battles against the elements, and have survived on simple meals. Tonight, however, a somewhat unusual debate arises. One of their more philosophical discussions takes place, inspired by a vague story from a distant town about a mysterious meal called "pizza."
Aethercrest leans towards the fire and asks, "So... this 'pizza' that the town merchants were talking about. Does pineapple belong on it? " His tone is serious, but a glimmer of wonder hides in his eyes. Because what exactly is a pizza?
Thor Gullscry, always the first to speak his mind, frowns and scratches his beard. "Pineapple is fruit. Fruit on… bread? No, that sounds wrong. Pineapple is too sweet, too juicy. It should be enjoyed on its own, not on something as… mysterious as pizza, whatever that is. "
Gareth Seabright, who had also listened to the merchants' stories, added: "I agree. Who would put fruit on top of something baked though? We've never seen such a dish in our travels. It seems unnecessarily complicated. "
Elara Skyme, known for her thoughtfulness, raises a hand. "But wait. What if pizza is a kind of food that can accommodate both the sweet and the salty? Maybe pineapple can bring some kind of balance? " She looks out over her mates, but quickly meets skeptical looks.
Roderic Gullshield lets out a laugh. "Elara, you're thinking too deeply. Pineapples belong in the jungle, not on some flat dish we don't even know about. Let's not make it more complicated than it is. "
Loric Marlin shakes his head. "I still don't get it. Is pizza a kind of bread? Or cake? And why would anyone mix fruit with it? " He seems confused and the rest of the group nod in agreement.
Talia Seawatch, always looking for practical solutions, says: "We've traveled over seas and lands. I've never seen anything like this pizza. If we don't even know what it is, how can we know if pineapple belongs on the? "
Liora Gullwing adds with a smile: "If pizza really is as weird as it sounds, then maybe it's best to keep the pineapple far away. The fruit is plenty enough as it is. "
Isolde Tidemist giggles: "Who knows? Maybe pizza is a townspeople's invention. Some luxury we don't need. "
Rowan Shorefeather and Finnian Windgull, who had both been listening quietly, nod in time. "Pineapple on bread?" Rowan asks in wonder. "It sounds absurd. The fruit is best fresh and juicy, not baked. "
Orin Skymaster frowns. "But don't we have to taste the pizza first before we can judge? After all, we can only guess. "
Gwyneth Mariner throws her arms out. "I still don't understand what pizza is. But if we have to make a decision, we have to trust our instincts: fruit on bread sounds wrong. "
Gideon Seawing interjects: "I agree. Even if we don't know pizza, we do know pineapple. And pineapple deserves its place as it is. "
Alaric Shorewing shrugs. "If it's so complicated, why not just leave the fruit alone? Pizza can be on its own, and pineapple can be on its own. "
Finally, Anwen Gullkeeper speaks. "We're nomads. We've survived by keeping things simple and separate. Pineapple tastes best on its own, no matter what pizza is. Let's keep it that way. "
And so, without really fully understanding what pizza is, Aethercrest and his faithful seventeen companions agreed. Pineapple should not be mixed up in the mystery of pizza. The fruit, rich and golden, belonged under the heat of the sun, not baked in an unfamiliar town dish.
