you know how hawaiian pizza is totally against nature? ๐ท well, it turns out that it has a history that doesnโt include hawaii!?
itโs another one of those random things that i found interesting ๐ bear with ๐๐ป
#tdil that hawaiian pizza actually originated in canada ๐ณ
yep … you read that right! of all the places in the world, hawaiian pizza comes from canada! in fact, the dude who invented it wasnโt even hawaiian … he was greek!
his name was sam panopoulos and he was a greek gent that grew up in canada (sadly he died earlier this year ๐ข). other than inventing the hawaiian pizza, apparently his career of making pizzas was pretty standard … i find it pretty sad that heโs not known better! ๐ญ
anyway, sam invented the pizza in 1962, naming it the โhawaiian pizzaโ due to the brand of canned pineapple that he used ๐. apparently he was the first dude to create a pizza with ham and pineapple and this was a big thing … no one else was making decent pizza, let alone mad pizza that mixed flavours in such a way!
in actual fact, sam was a bit of a maverick … and i rather love that ๐ for that reason, even if you find hawaiian pizza to be the devil, i think we should all take our hats off in memory of sam panopoulas – the pizza maverick ๐๐๐ป๐๐ป
right, on that note, itโs time for me to stop waffling … iโll leave the debate of whether you should have pineapple on a pizza to you guys ๐ get your opinions down in the comments yo
ta rahhhh ๐ #tdil
