Iceland president: “I can’t ban pineapple on pizza”
The Iceland president has been forced to clarify his stance on one of the great issues facing the world at this difficult time – whether pineapple should be allowed on pizza.
Guðni Th. Jóhannesson created a social media storm after he suggested the tropical fruit should be banned as a topping on pizza during a school visit.
Some people were sympathetic to the idea.

In the face of a growing international incident, the president responded with a message on his Facebook page clarifying his stance, saying he didn’t like pineapple on his pizza but he had no plans to stop other people putting it on theirs.
More toppings, er, updates when we get it.
