If I'm not mistaken, it was Round Table Pizza that marketed the ham/pineapple pizza as the "Hawaiian" in the late 80's and it stuck.

However, back in the late 50's, my Aunt Pam would have the guys at Me 'n Ed's pizza parlor (in Fullerton, SoCal) take pinapple from the salad bar and put it on her Canadian Bacon pizza at her request.

It was called "Pam's Special" and it caught on with the locals in Orange County over the years as simply a "ham and pinapple" pizza at other Pizza places in the area.

Not sure who was the first to market it, but the "Hawaiian" concept is not original and I'm sure Aunt Pam was not the first to do it.

Pizza Hawaii was huge in Germany going back decades. As long as I can remember.

Just looked it up. 1957 to be exact. But apparently it was invented in Canada.
 
According to Wiki, invented by Sam Panopoulos, in Ontario Canada, in '62.

Do they list his address?
