It’s been our family recipe as long as I can remember. Not a resurgence. The current version I use is from an old “Anglican Church Ladies’ Cookbook”, which my mother recommended as the best version she used.
And there we have the problem in a nutshell (heh). “Is X really Y?” depends on the definition of Y; and sometimes there’s more than one definition in common use.
I thought the deal with the illegal mayo was that by (e.g., Dutch) law it does have to have at least 2/3 fat and 5% egg yolk. Plenty of non-conforming sauces, no problem, but they are not called “mayonnaise”. Have they changed the law?
Products like “sweetmeat”? “Meat” has never been completely synonymous with “flesh” in English.

Yeah, talk about irresponsible. You would think a kids’ book is a good opportunity to teach them not to feed a cat anything too far removed from a chunk of meat. Like pizza. Ironically, pineapple is not toxic, whereas something like onions will kill them quick.
But they’re all delicious… 
That’s kind of the point though - people didn’t think that words like ‘milk’ and ‘meat’ and ‘pig’ and ‘beer’ needed tireless protection.
I feel bad for hijacking this thread continually. Ham and pineapple pizza is actually my wife’s favourite (I personally can take it or leave it, but as a general principle, I think if nobody is getting hurt, do what makes you happy, even if other people cannot comprehend or appreciate it.
Pizza tonight! Crumbled sausage, pineapple and jalapeños.

Looks great. I am also a fan of putting the cheese over the toppings. I guess that makes them underings?
Yes, looks great. I’ll bet those edges are crispy as hell.
Well in the months after this thread originally started, I did try pineapple (with jalapeños) on pizza when I was in LA and it was amazing. So so good.
you do know there’s such thing as pickled pineapple right ?
So what about BBQ chicken pizza… thers the sweet version , and there’s the fire sauce version…
30 years ago there was a trend/fad for pizza joints featuring 50+ variations. Mexican pizza with a cornmeal crust, cheddar cheese, jalapeño peppers, onions, black olives, and salsa instead of Italian tomato sauce. Middle eastern pizza with pita bread base, tomato paste and tahini, red onions, olive oil, and sesame oil, chick pea paste with roasted garlic. Greek pizza with lamb, olives, feta cheese, cucumber, onion, and tomato wedges.
Hawaiian pizza was amongst them. Never worth a second try, but that was true of many others. Whereas they had some I would go back for if they were still available. The Irish pizza with corned beef and cabbage was a loser in my book but I’d opt for the Mexican and the Greek, those were nice.
The surprise was that after the fad had passed, somehow that miserable Hawaiian pizza idea had kept on. Just no. Not then, not now.
Maybe because the awesome Hawaiian pizza had nothing to do with that fad, and predates it by several decades?
A roommate in college would order from a place that offered gyros as a pizza topping. Fatty & salty, it’s brilliant on pizza. I wish it was more widely available.

On the topic of all things pizza, I thought zume was pretty brilliant. A delivery truck with a bunch of pizza ovens in the back, baking it while en route.
Alas, they closed the operation.
Yas! Heavy red onion and cukes!
Cukes? Is that that new “superfood” from Africa that supposedly makes tart things taste sweet but actually just numbs your tongue?
