A Canadian-invented pizza has been deemed the most popular pizza in the U.S. for 2020, according to an annual report from food delivery app GrubHub.
GrubHub's "Taste of 2020" report has crowned Hawaiian pizza as "America's Favorite Pizza" after finding the pie was 689 per cent more popular than last year.
The "Taste of 2020" report is based on trends gathered from more than 30 million orders on the Grubhub platform. According to Grubhub, the order trends detail the rise in popularity of certain food items placed by U.S. diners from January-November 2020 compared to the same timeframe in 2019.

The dish tends to spark debate about whether the tropical fruit should be used as a pizza topping.
Greek-Canadian Sam Panopoulos said he created the pizza in 1962 at the Satellite Restaurant in Chatham, Ont.
According to his 2017 obituary, Panopoulos claimed to media outlets over the years to be the first to put pineapple on pizza after deciding that chunks of the canned fruit might make a tasty topping. He reportedly called it Hawaiian pizza after the brand of canned pineapple he used.
However, Panopoulos' claim to pineapple on pizza isn't undisputed.
The Associated Press previously noted that some suggest that pineapple pizza was invented in Australia, while others say it evolved from a German dish of ham, cheese and pineapple on toast.

You would think Canadian pizza would have moose and maple syrup on it.
I love hawaiian pizza, as long as it’s just Canadian bacon and pineapple. Some places in Ohio like to add cinnamon and almonds, which are a bit much to me.
Well, a moose bit my sister while she was eating a cheese pizza.
It’s not real Hawaiian if it doesn’t have Spam
From the looks in the photo, the pineapple came in can!!!!
What? Sausage and pepperoni are made with spices?
To paraphrase...
“The stomach wants what it wants”...
Indeed!!

The first and only pineapple topped pizza I ever ate was in Yellow Springs Ohio in 1975. It seemed to be the preferred combo of Antioch College undergrads. It also had ham and green pepper. Not my choice, but not horrible.
