Yeah, I suppose, are the multis lining up? I feel like he was going for, signal to start.

Incidentally I think that bit I wrote is wrong. But maybe not.
I'm pretty sure it should be, "Cue is an indication to start."

iPads seem to have eliminated the word an. What's up with that?

Then coconut-y curries are alright tbf. I might let saxi cook me one for dinner one day, don't forget @suckytoxin

Some Thai and southern Indian (e.g. Keralan) curries use pineapple. I'd have liked it when I was a kid but it's way too sweet for me now.

Gaeng Kua Sapparod (Thai Pineapple Curry)

Ingredients for the Curry Paste:

4 Red Shallots
4 clv Garlic
1 stalk Lemongrass
1.5 inch galanga, sliced
2 to 5 red Thai chilies (depending on how spicy you want it)
1 finger grachai
Fish sauce to taste

—————————
Ingredienst for the Pineapple Curry:

Curry paste (see above)
1 Tb coconut oil
1/2 kg (about 1 lb) pork tenderloin, thinly sliced – or boneless chicken thigh meat, cut into pieces - alternatively substitute the meat with 1 pound of shrimp (0.5 kg), peeled and deveined (thawed)
1 cup coconut milk (or more to taste), like 2 x 14 oz cans of coconut milk
1-2 cup water or broth (depending on how soupy you want it)
1/2 kg sweet fresh pineapple, diced
large Thai green/red (mild to medium) chilies, quartered lengthwise (to taste)
3 kaffir lime leaves, sliced thinly (or if you don't have it, Lime zest)
1 handful of Thai sweet basil (horapa)
Salt and palm sugar to taste

Directions:
Make the curry paste with mortar and pestal or a small blender.

Heat a deep wok, large pot, dutch oven or soup pot, over medium heat.

Carefully open the can of coconut milk without shaking.
Scoop out all of the thick coconut milk that has settled at the top of the can and cook until bubbly.

Add the curry paste to the milk, stir to combine. Cook, without stirring until the mixture starts to look swirly and turns a bit darker red (3-5 mins).
Add the rest of the coconut milk and water/broth to the pot (depending on how soupy/saucy you want it) and bring to boil, stir to combine, and bring to a light simmer.

then if you go with meat: A) Add the meat to the curry, and stir-fry until almost cooked.
(Cook until meat is cooked and somewhat tender).
Squeeze some of the juice out of the diced pineapple. Discard or re-purpose the juice. Add the squeezed pineapple to the pot and boil a few minutes more, or until pineapple is tender.

Season with salt and palm sugar to taste (sweetness depends on your pineapple - use fresh pineapple - not canned if you can! as well as individual taste).

Or if you go with shrimps; B) Add the shrimps, peppers and pineapple chunks, cook until the shrimp are done (~5 mins).)

I believe the Thai curry they make in restaurants here is pretty close to that recipe Sonic posted, and uses coconut milk.

It is typically either red or green and can be slightly sweet, which is good,

A nurse from Thailand who stayed with my mother inlaw for several months while here on a practical learning work program, taught us to make red curry using chicken legs with the bone in and a plastic tub of prepared curry paste. It's a favorite. I like Mae Ploy brand curry paste.

That's why I said the recipe is pretty close to the one Sonic posted.

I have not had a veriety with pineapple.

It's a different Thai curry that uses pineapple afaik. I think Masaman is Thai and includes pineapple.

Mae Ploy is solid. If you have a shellfish allergy or are cooking for someone who does, try Maesri brand because it's also good and doesn't have shrimp paste in it.

As for the question at hand... To the person who was fine with pineapple on pizza but NOT in curry? You should have your head examined. That's pretty much it.

Italian food is boring enough that it needs a little tang to liven it up. Curry, on the other hand, is best served dark, spicy and tomato-y. FACT.

Without doing an online search, I would say that there are more Italian restaurants than English, for sure. French is regarded as "upper end" (i.e., expensive) in USA and is not as popular a cuisine by most Americans. Many Italian places are also pizzerias, a popular option for many who do not know ziti from penne from linguini. Most English places in the USA are pubs, serving beverages (beers and ales) and that is often the bigger attraction than the food. Mexican and Tex-Mex places seem to be growing in popularity now. Chinese may have peaked. Thai and Indian seem distant as far as popularity, from my perspective. There are also Japanese steak and sushi places that are popular, but to me more of a niche market. So Italian food places are still #1 for most Americans, imo.

jimb can give us the online stats that he likes to sue for and obtain.
