Italian chef fired in Australia for saying no to pineapple on pizza

An Italian chef in Australia was dismissed for refusing to put pineapple on pizza, claiming it insulted his culture. The Fair Work Commission upheld his firing after he appealed, stating he had previously rejected the order multiple times. The chef argued his dismissal was linked to a workplace injury, but the commission found no exceptional circumstances for his late appeal. The restaurant has since closed, and the chef now works at a different establishment without pineapple on the menu.
