I tried the Durian ice cream … but it tasted like durian. I won’t be fooled like that again. I was hoping the different presentation would tone down the taste. Oopsie

Anyone tried one of their new vegan friendly burger, the McPlant?

Given the list of fillings: 3 sauces (?) and every other vegetable in their repertoire, it's doesn't bode well for the flavour of the burger or the vegan cheese.

Are you out of your mind? I won’t eat pizza if it hasn’t got pineapple on it.

Oh no, I like Hawaiian pizza.

It's better with Prosciutto (added after cooking) instead of cooked fake ham. The saltiness of the ham, the sweetness of the pineapple and the fat of the cheese - the holy trinity of addictive foodstuffs. Add the crispiness of the thin crust and a bit of chewiness of the thing as a whole, and you have it all.

When cold it also goes well with either HP sauce, Heinz Ketchup or even..... salad cream for a perfect hangover curing breakfast.

It's the best thing to come out of Hawaii since Hawaii 5-0's Grace Park...

I wouldn't call pizza with pineapple disgusting but, it's definitely wrong -- almost offensive.

I read about it yesterday and want to give it a try today. I think it's a nice touch that they make an effort to create local dishes. This one is a bit "strange" alright, but I don't see anything horribly wrong with it.
