His infamous creation was born when he and his brothers decided one day to put tinned pineapple on pizza just to find out how it would taste.
"We just put it on, just for the fun of it, see how it was going to taste," he told the BBC earlier this year.
"We were young in the business and we were doing a lot of experiments."
The rest as they say, is history.
Earlier this year, the President of Iceland caused an online firestorm after he declared on Facebook that he was "fundamentally opposed" to pineapple as a pizza topping.
