Pineapple on pizza has long incited debates, but now an equally controversial pizza toppings has made its debut atop Disneyland's Alien Pizza Planet: pickles. While the new pie may not be for everyone, pickle lovers are sure to rejoice over the news.
The Alien Pizza Planet is an unusual new pizza available for Disneyland visitors. Created to celebrate the start of Pixar Fest, the new pie combines traditional cheeseburger toppings such as ketchup, yellow mustard, American cheese, cheddar cheese, caramelized onions, diced tomatoes, tiny slider patties, a house-made burger sauce, and perhaps the most controversial topping of them all, pickles. When paired with the pizza's sesame seed crust, the tiny slices of dill give the pizza a deliciously tangy taste.
With the recent rise in pickle-flavored drinks, condiments, and snacks, the debut of a pickle-topped pizza seems only natural.
