Some people love this combination, while others can’t seem to stand it.

It can even cause quite heated arguments.

If you haven’t guessed already, it’s the tasty or nasty — depending on your taste — ham and pineapple pizza.

The man who created this pizza was neither Italian nor Hawaiian.

A Greek immigrant from Canada, Sam Panopoulos did not want to stick to the usual ingredients on pizzas, like pepperoni and mushrooms.

He spread canned pineapple and sliced ham onto a pizza and called it “the Hawaiian” because that’s what was written on the pineapple can.

Even now, in the U.S. and U.K., no pizza menu seems complete without it.

In Italy, however, most people find pineapple on pizza distasteful.
