If you’ve ever debated about whether pineapples belong on pizza, just wait until you see DiGiorno’s seasonal treat. Forget pineapples; DiGiorno’s frozen Thanksgiving pizza begs the question, Do turkey, gravy, sweet potatoes, green beans, and cranberries belong on pizza?

Originally launched last year, the Thanksgiving pizza is finally coming back this month to Kroger-owned grocery stores. The suggested retail price is $9.99, but prices could vary by store.

In addition to the Thanksgiving toppings, the pizza also features mozzarella, cheddar, and crispy onions. We’re all for a sweet and savory combination done right, but we’re struggling to see DiGiorno’s vision here. If we can be honest, the green beans and cranberries the scariest parts (with an honorable mention going to the sweet potatoes). Instead of actual cranberries, a cranberry drizzle would have been a better option. And green beans on a pizza just has us stressed out. When it comes to Thanksgiving, green beans should be limited to casserole, and casserole alone.

As far as the sweet potatoes, we really can’t get past the textural travesty of potatoes paired with chewy pizza dough.

Questionable toppings aside, we love the idea of a gravy sauce on pizza. You can also never go wrong when finishing off any dish with crispy onions.

Would you be willing to swap out your traditional dinner for DiGiorno’s Thanksgiving pizza?
