Pizza toppings have created some heated debates on the internet. Most foodies find the idea of fruit on pizza disgusting. The most popular fruit topping on pizza – pineapple – has been the center of many debates. While some eaters enjoy eating pineapple on pizza, others vehemently reject the idea of fruit and pizza coming together. However, that hasn’t deterred eaters from putting mangoes on their pizza. It’s clearly established that the fruit topping on pizza won’t be over anytime soon, but recently we’ve found a bizarre pizza-fruit combination that has us confused. We all must have heard about fruit on pizza, but have you ever heard of any fruit on pizza?! to keep track:
In the video, we see a man taking a piece of watermelon and roasting it on a pan. He then spreads barbecue sauce over grilled fruit, saying that “BBQ sauce works better with watermelon than with tomatoes”. A slice of grilled watermelon becomes the pizza base, which he garnishes with cheese and tops with pepperoni. He grills it again and finally, what’s called a watermelon pizza slice.
