Man, people miss out on so much good eating because of preconceptions and gatekeeping.

Berries go with almost anything. And yeah, technically strawberries aren't berries. But the point is that pretty much every berry is a blend of acidic tartness, sweetness, and complex flavors. There's no world in which berries make something bad.

Any fruit has the potential to go with any standard food. Meats, pastas, breads, even veggies. It's a matter of balancing the specific fruit with the other ingredients.

That's why pineapple on pizza works. Tangy, sweet, and with that hard to describe tropical fruitiness. It brings out the sweetness of a good tomato sauce while cutting through the fattiness of toppings and any oils.

Pork chops and applesauce baby, it's a classic for reason. Pork stuffed with apples; and other things, orange chicken or duck, blackberry glazed venison roast (seriously, you want to try it), apricot beef (or lamb), curried goat with prunes (or apricot, or peaches even), roasted brussels sprouts with apples and cranberries.

It's all about the balancing with other things.

The Polish strawberry pasta? It's balanced out with sour cream that mutes the sweetness some, and works as a bridge with the pasta.

I know I'm talking into a void here, what with this being a meme, but I'm always so amazed that people will dismiss a food combination without trying it, or sometimes without even trying to imagine the possibilities.

Hawaiian pizza was invented by a Greek man running an Italian pizzeria in Toronto inspired by the sweet and sour flavors of Chinese cuisine

Pineapple on Pizza isn't bad and you're being whiners

Fruit goes on cooked flour.

It's been like that for centuries.

Cake. Danish. Fruitcake. Pizza. Filled doughnuts. Kolacky. Raisin bread. Banana bread...

Need to polish them tastes

A famous italian chef branded the strawberry and champagne risotto, so maybe not

My polish grandmother used to make us pasta with applesauce. Surprisingly tasty.

I'm terms of pizza, here in Sweden we have the kebab pizza and the banana-curry pizza. The latter one was slightly disappointing in how ok it was.

I love strawberries, that sounds awful, and next strawberry season I would love to try it. Could I have a recipe?

put literally anything on a pizza and watch me continue to live my life unencumbered. Italians are too wrapped up in a national identity of tut-tutting other countries that change their precious recipes.

Once, out of salt, I put sugar in my fries. It wasn't bad.

pasta with strawberries is yummy :3

Ever had spaghetti ice cream with strawberry sauce and grazed white chocolate as "parmesan"

Ooh, that actually doesn't sound bad... Slightly tart sweet with the salty tang of the sauce, maybe with a kick of spice from jalapenos... I'll have to give that a try sometime

ETA: I missed that it said "pasta" rather than "pizza", but my comment stands

Chuja się znasz na makaronie, frajerze! /s

Is this for real? How has this not been brought up already as a crime against humanity?

Lets not forget pizzas with bananas

I don't necessarily think <anything>+pasta would be bad tasting; but the textures... 😖
