Bill de Blasio sprinkles coconut on pizza and eats it crust first in stunt to promote Kamala Harris

What a strange dough!

Former Mayor Bill de Blasio devoured a slice of coconut pizza, crust first, on Thursday in a hard-to-digest video promoting Kamala Harris’ presidential bid on social media.

In a sentimental reference to the 2014 taunt he received for eating pizza with a fork, de Blasio can be seen frowning as he tosses a bag of desiccated coconut shavings onto a slice of cheese pizza, according to footage he posted to X.

The 63-year-old politician-turned-academic turns the piece of bread over and eats it backwards in an attempt to get the internet’s attention, while sitting in a restaurant.

“I’m hungry. I’m going to eat pizza today,” he captioned the post — created to promote “Paisans for Kamala,” a virtual event featuring Italian-American celebrities and politicians this weekend.

“Join us virtually for Sunday dinner!” he tweeted. “RSVP at http://PaisansForKamala.com All of our special guests will share what their heritage means to them, why they passionately support @KamalaHarris, and their favorite dish.”

De Blasio hopes the racy return will stir things up at the event, which will feature actors Steve Buscemi, Marisa Tomei, Lorraine Bracco, John Turturro and others.

Politicians including Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Congressman John Garamendi and Congresswoman Rosa DeLauro will also attend the virtual dinner.

“It brings together Italian-American celebrities, political leaders and community members for an evening of stories, recipes and conversation about the stakes of the 2024 election,” a press release said.

In January 2014, de Blasio was widely laughed at when he devoured a smoked mozzarella and sausage pie with a knife and fork at Staten Island Pizzeria Goodfellas.

For many true New Yorkers, the move was a culinary anathema, who claim to prepare the city’s signature dish only with their hands, leading to the hashtag #forkgate.

One food writer called the incident a “disaster,” while others called it De Blasio’s first mistake as mayor — with The Post teasing, “Some New Yorker.”

De Blasio defended himself at the time by saying that he had adopted the habit of eating with a fork from his “ancestral homeland” of Italy, where most people use cutlery when eating pizza.
