In my area (Boston) Hawaiian pizza was introduced by the California pizza
kitchen chain.


I recall recipes and seeing "Hawaian Pizza" during a period, late 60s or
so, long predating the California Pizza Kitchens.

There are two versions that I recall....the first with ham, green pepper and
canned pineapple chunks atop tomator sauce, the second and likely
"authentic" Hawaian, Span cubes and pineapple chunks over tomato sauce.

The mere thought is enough to generate the first tickle of incipient
projectile vomiting.
