CP24: I ARGUE FOR PINEAPPLE ON PIZZA ON THE DEBUT OF “THE GREAT DEBATE!
As Canadians we don’t make a big deal of our contributions to world cuisine… We have Bannock, Malpeque oysters, Alberta beef and pineapple on pizza.
I know it’s controversial, but I see this as a matter of Canadian pride. We should celebrate our innovations, whether it’s the walkie-talkie, the electric wheelchair… or putting pineapple on pizza.
Created in 1962 by Chef and innovative flavor genius Sam Panopoulos of the Satellite Restaurant in Chatham-Kent, Ontario. It not only represents out of the box thinking, but it represents the best of the Canadian multicultural make-up… it is an invention by a Greek immigrant, inspired by Chinese cuisine to put a South American fruit on an Italian dish… what could be more representative of the grand cultural mosaic of our country than that?
