Pineapple as a pizza topping divides opinion: Hawaiian was the most popular pizza in Australia in 1999, accounting for 15% of pizza sales, and a 2015 review of independent UK takeaways operating through Just Eat found the Hawaiian pizza to be the most commonly available. A 2016 survey of US adults had pineapple in the top three least favourite pizza toppings, behind anchovies and mushrooms.
History
In February 2017, the president of Iceland, Guðni Th. Jóhannesson, reportedly told a group of high school students during a Q&A that he was fundamentally opposed to pineapple on pizza. He added that, if he could, he would ban pineapple as a pizza topping. His off-the-cuff remark generated a flurry of media coverage and inspired lovers and haters of Hawaiian pizza to express their opinions on social media. Panopoulis, long retired from the restaurant business was called upon by some media outlets to defend his creation. Jóhannesson later clarified in a Facebook post that he did not have the power to ban particular toppings on pizza and would not like to live in a country where the leader could ban anything he or she didn't like.
