hawaiian pizza

trustycoffeemug
pizza done in the style of hawaii. putting aside that it was created in canada by a greek guy.

traditionally the toppings placed atop the cheese base will include ham or bacon, and little cubical prisms of pineapple. the blend of sweet and savory is generally regarded as an acquired taste, or, in other words, something you won't like until you've tried it a few times.

like airline food, hawaiian pizza is one of those easy targets for comedy, presumably because it doesn't fight back

satyr

the devils dictionary
One of the few characters of the Grecian mythology accorded recognition in the Hebrew. (Leviticus, xvii, 7.) The satyr was at first a member of the dissolute community acknowledging a loose allegiance to Dionysus, but underwent many transformations and improvements. Not infrequently he is confounded with the faun, a later and decenter creation of the Romans, who was less like a man and more like a goat.
