HM: So you agree? Because the president of Iceland also says seafood is good on pizza. HM: If the president of Iceland got to try a slice of your pineapple pizza do you think you might be able to change his mind? SP: I don't care what he does. He can say whatever he wants. He sells the fish over there, you know, that's all he does. So he has to put the fish on the pizza. HM: Do you make any pizza these days?

SP: No, I eat pizza, but I don't make 'em anymore. I usually get those Dr. Oetker or whatever you call them. They're very light. SP: Yeah, yeah. They're very nice — thin crust and some of them have a nice soft crust.

Hawaiian pizza actually originated in Ontario, Canada in the s, when Satellite Restaurant owner and Greek immigrant Sam Panopoulos returned from Detroit having sampled what was then a novelty for Canadians: pizza.

Panopoulos took what he learned from his stateside visit, bought a small oven, and began preparing pies with toppings like mushroom, bacon, and pepperoni. In , Panopoulos decided to add another option, offering customers pineapple as a topping. There was no gastronomic science behind it.

A taste test revealed that the sweetness of the pineapple and savory flavor of the added ham made for a nice contrast with the salty, doughy pie. His only intention was to break the pattern of using ordinary ingredients on pizza, and to open up a world of new flavors. And that he did, while making the very most of the great opportunities afforded him by the country that he and his brothers came to in their twenties.
