I came here to check if there any Italian have some triggered, i guest it not
Watermelon Pizza…..
Imagine going to a party and the white suburban stay at home mom with two overachiever kids and white dad who barbeques but doesn’t know how to barbeque and yet is always surrounded by other white Dads who compliment his barbqeuing even though they’re just store bought preshaped frozen patties from Ralph’s or Food 4 Less and while he’s cooking those the white mom comes out and says “okay kids, here’s some pizza!” And she pulls this fruit pizza out and starts telling the kids why its a “fun pizza” and then cries in her master bedroom when no one likes it or finishes it and the white dad is then consoling her why she sobs that she’s a terrible mother and ruined her fourth grade straight B+ sons birthday and thinks her kids hate her but they don’t care but she continues crying softly into her pillow while the children eat poorly cooked burgers with unmelted kraft singles and too much mayonnaise and the only other condiments are two pickles and pepper because the dad calls it his special burger with a secret spice but the spice was just pepper and the kids just keep playing E rated games on their Nintendo Wii while the 17 year old older sister starts cleaning the tragedy up and throwing away uneaten “fun pizza” and whole burgers dejected from the start while she dials Pizza Hut to get these kids an actual birthday lunch and the mother then throws a fit because the daughter did something the kids liked and she didn’t and was the only one making a huge deal out of it and the daughter was then grounded from her TV in her room for only two days and the son went to blow out the candles in his standard birthday cake from food 4 less the mom added strawberries to so she could feel she did something but was still slightly teary and sad because her day was ruined by no one wanting to eat her “fun pizza”
I’m not offended by putting feta and olives on watermelon, I’m offended that you called this a pizza.
Is there any replacement for olives for anyone that doesn't care for olives?
I'm just thinking out loud
I don't know if I could ever go without
Watermelon pizza high
Watermelon pizza high…
Until hearing his comment about playing a sadistic practical joke about no pits …. I had assumed when I got a pizza in Afghanistan with the works, including olives that were not pitted …. that it was just incompetence …. but maybe not.
👌👌👍🏻
This is yummy I made this a few days ago as a starter and it was delicious
I must admit, I did check to see if the upload date said april.
Watermelon and feta sound as good as apricots and gorgonzola, my favorite summer appetizer. I'm going to try this as soon as I can!
this reminds me of fishwhisperers channel, he makes that pizza for his pond turtles
That looks good sweet and salty
Anyone else grew up eating watermelon with chili powder? Just me. Ok
I thought this was a joke at first but NOW I WANT TO TRY!!
I was actually amazed that a lot of people never had that combination. In my home country, watermelon HAS to be paired with cheese and some kind of pepper no excpetion

I see lots of possibilities with this, thin sliced strips of peperoni or salami, fresh mozzarella, basil and dry oregano might be good, definitely a crouton or two for a little crunch would be good.
I'd like to see a Mexican cuisine version of this too.
I immediately looked to see if this was published April 1st.
Feta and watermelons is a summer dish/snack in Egypt. Not only is it absolutely delicious, it helps you cool off and stay hydrated too! I usually just have the 2 together on their own, but I'll give your twist on it a shot!!!
Tried this tonight with some old family friends, and it was ACE. Used white wine vinegar, fresh mint from the garden, and Kalamata olives. It was a treat, and it's now a recipe logged forever in the big recipe book in my head. (I think that recipe book is bigger than my brain, these days…)
You’ve blown my mind
Something about this being my birthday food wish feels right on brand. Even though I probably wouldn't eat this.
YOU NEED AN EXORCIST
I think calling it pizza is what's throwing me off. If it were called anything else, I'd would be less turned off. But, I will probably try this.
