12 Jun Inventor Of The Hawaiian Pizza Has Died Aged 83

There are many great questions which will plague us for as long as we’re on this planet. Is there life after death? Is it too early to text her back? Finally, the big one: Do you like pineapple on pizza? This question has divided many, and will continue to do so, as people can’t seem to agree on whether the sweet fruit belongs on a pizza. Thanks to the internet, full-blown social media arguments have erupted over this question.

Even world leaders got involved. Justin Trudeau, Prime Minister of Canada, stood firmly on the pro-Hawaiian side while the Icelandic President Guðni Jóhannesson stated that he was “fundamentally opposed” to the idea and even clarified further in a Facebook post.

“I like pineapples, just not on pizza. I do not have the power to make laws which forbid people to put pineapples on their pizza. I am glad that I do not hold such power. Presidents should not have unlimited power. I would not want to hold this position if I could pass laws forbidding that which I don’t like. I would not want to live in such a country. For pizzas, I recommend seafood.”

We only have one man to thank for all this back-and-forth. Sam Panopoulos is widely believed to have invented the Hawaiian pizza. He was a man of strong opinions as well as strong tastes, as seen in his response when asked about the Icelandic President’s comments.

“The guy is crazy. He doesn’t grow a lot of pineapples up there. He has a lot of fish – so he says put fish on it.”
