Don’t make that face, we’re just telling it like it is. The latest debate on the internet involves a twitter post by Austin Braun who reacted to another twitter post about Pineapple on pizza.
Since Brauns Sunday tweet, the internet has gone nuts. Here’s some of the online coverage on “Peepza,” I’ll spare you the gooey twitter back and forths, but let us know your thoughts….Peeps or Pineapple?
CNET posted: Peeps, not pineapple, on pizza is the real issue

Mashable brought our attention to this highly important culinary issue and the Twitter debate now growing around it.
The Peeps-pizza food abomination/delight seems to trace back to Twitter use Austin Braun, who posted an image of a pizza topped with melted Peeps on Sunday. The pizza appears to be sitting in a delivery box, which leads us to wonder what pizza parlor would keep Peeps on hand as an ingredient option. Maybe we don’t really want to know the answer to that question.

Alongside the photo, which possibly coincided with April Fools, Braun included the caption, “This > pineapple pizza.”
