Explanation: Ancient Roman predecessors to modern pizza used pomegranate, amongst other fruits. Of course, such proto-'pizzas' lacked tomatoes (as tomatoes come from the Americas) and probably lacked mozzarella (as mozzarella is first mentioned during the Renaissance).

Romans liked a cheese that was more similar to ricotta. So it would be like a ricotta pizza which sounds nice. I wonder if they had ricotta pie, that stuff is so good

Since tomatos technically are fruit too, the text of that meme is still true but in a more boring way.

Ah, yes. Because the only thing that would improve my pizza eating experience is the risk of breaking a tooth on a seed.

Drake, Bieber, Pineapple Pizza all really hurt our international reputation

Americans also eat something called Canadian bacon but I donโ€™t think that matters
