Store I went to basically out of most Pizza, but still had some of a new style TACO AND CHEESE STUFFED. (Nacho Cheese Stuffed Crust, instead of Mozzarella Stuffed) Pizza that I haven’t ever seen before (DiGior... brand), so bought one to try it out.
But I’d definitely buy those leftover Pineapple/Ham ones 😀
What does this have to MCOC? This thread reeks of nepotism.
"Nepotism"? I don't think you know the meaning of the word. Nepotism is when you give your relatives jobs in your company/government - often when they've no place being there. Like Jared Kushner.

You'll find dictionaries (especially online ones) state that Nepotism is where you give relatives or friends special consideration. But without getting into what dictionaries actually do (dictionaries don't define, they describe - so says the authors of all dictionaries) the correct usage is to say that nepotism refers to relatives, and cronyism refers to friends or acquaintances.
True story: I took a cousin to Japan recently as part of a friends and family type get together, and at one point we took him to a Japanese steak house that had a teppanyaki counter. Teppanyaki, for those not familiar, is what you're picturing in your head when you think of a Benihana restaurant where the chef tosses the food around and into his hat. My cousin, who grew up all his life on the East Coast of the United States, said "oh, you mean hibachi cooking" when I described this. I, and actually everyone else at the table, stared at him. "Hibachi" cooking is what everyone in the western world calls "grilling." A hibachi is a (kind of) Japanese charcoal grill. There is no restaurant in the world that does Teppanyaki cooking on a hibachi, because that would be insane.
However, I actually stopped to look it up. Apparently in many parts of the US, including especially on the East Coast, teppanyaki restaurants are actually referred to as "hibachi" style restaurants. They've appropriated the wrong word to describe these restaurants, and no one corrected them.
So is he right or is he wrong? In my opinion, he's wrong, and I explained it to him. You might find "hibachi-style restaurant" in an online dictionary somewhere describing what is a teppanyaki style restaurant, but no amount of Google entries makes it right. It just means a lot of Americans are wrong about a Japanese thing.
A dictionary can describe how people use a word, but it cannot tell you, in and of itself, if that usage is "correct." For that, you need to go beyond dictionaries and into the world of contextual linguistics.

For years, the forums have debated this particular question off and on, without any clear resolution. This even goes back to the prior forums. Not only have players argued this, even the Kabam developers have weighed in, but there hasn't been a consensus on this issue. I have gone so far as to challenge the moderators on their stance on this multiple times in the past. However, after careful research I believe I now have a definitive answer to this age old question:
Is pineapple an appropriate topping for pizza?
Apparently this combination is not only not pizza, it is apparently not even considered food.
Good now I can go get some of that glorious majestic pizza without being judged.

Chicken, bacon and pineapple (with BBQ sauce) pizza is what I'll eat in heaven.
Dessert pizza: Nutella, banana and honey with whipped cream.
Actually, I'll eat anything bunged on a pizza base, except anchovies.
But I’d definitely buy those leftover Pineapple/Ham ones 😀
