Dear Mercury readers:

Guess what? YOU are an essential part of what we do. Simply put, without recurring monthly contributions from readers like you, it's impossible to provide the high quality journalism that protects the marginalized and holds the powerful accountable. We've all seen what happens to communities when reporting disappears and falsehoods take root. So if you believe our mission is important and necessary, please consider a small monthly contribution to the Mercury, and we'll keep working hard for you and those who need it most!

Thanks, we appreciate you!

I've never understood a pineapple on a pizza. The taste doesn't match either. Or why it's called a stereotypical "Hawaiian" pizza. Pineapple never originated in Hawaii either. Hey, might as well, there's spam pizzas.
How about Chinese broccoli on pizza? Or chicken feet?
Or what about a Panang or Massaman curry pizza sauce?
Masala sauce anyone?
Maybe I'll go for Kiwi this time?
Oooh, mango sounds good as a topping with sausage.
Oh yeah, I'll go with a coconut and ham slice, please?
On second thought, how about we go with a jackfruit and onion pizza?
And a tamarind pepperoni?
Maybe an Oyako Don type pizza with egg?
Do you have sticky rice or rice condiments?
Oh no, kalua pig, please!
