Hawaiian pizza is a type of pizza that always consists of a cheese and tomato base with toppings of ham and pineapple.[1] Hawaiian pizza does not actually originate from Hawaii.[2] It has been conjectured that it derives from toast Hawaii, a German sandwich[2].

Versions will often have mixed peppers, mushrooms and bacon.[citation needed] Another variety consists of pineapple and Canadian bacon.[3] It is the most popular pizza in Australia, accounting for 15% of pizza sales.[4]
