Love it or hate it, few foods spark as much debate as Hawaiian pizza. But here’s the kicker: it’s not Hawaiian at all...it’s Canadian. That’s right, pineapple-on-pizza was invented in Ontario in the 1960s by a Greek immigrant named Sam Panopoulos, and somehow it went on to divide the planet into Team Pineapple vs. Team Purist. In this episode of Canada is Boring, we chew over the bizarre origin story of Hawaiian pizza, why it’s Canada’s most controversial culinary export, and how one small-town restaurant ended up changing the global pizza conversation forever. Expect tangy history, saucy opinions, and maybe a few cheesy jokes along the way.
