    Criminal Mastermind Expires

    ...incomprehensible, stomach-churning, vomitous topping for beloved pizza:

    Sam Panopoulos, who has died aged 83, leaves a legacy that has delighted, confused and appalled diners worldwide. Often at the same time.
    Panopoulos is the Canadian man who invented Hawaiian pizza, a dish so divisive it led to a presidential outburst this year.
    He passed away in hospital suddenly on Thursday.
    Panopoulos emigrated to Canada from Greece in 1954 when he was 20, eventually going on to own and operate several successful restaurants with his two brothers.
    It was in one of those restaurants in 1962 that Panopoulos was inspired to add canned pineapple to pizza...

    If we're talking pizza crimes, Asia must be the most dangerous place in the world.

    ^ In Thailand they used to make all pizzas with MAYONNAISE instead of cheese.

    I'm glad they finally discovered cheese.

    One of the worst crimes is to squirt sweet mayonnaise over the pizza. I've seen that in quite a few places, so I'm always on my guard when they're preparing it.

    Probably the advent of lower-priced fake mozzarella made locally that made the difference.

    You know...the stuff 'high flyer' luigi puts on his pasta dishes.
