We might be a nation divided over the pros and cons of a Hawaiian pizza, but other toppings are also beyond the pale When I began thinking about this column, I hoped to take a deep, scholarly dive into the realm of the Hawaiian pizza, the abomination/delicacy (delete as applicable) that, according to recent research by YouGov, now divides the nation more than any other foodstuff. But in the end, this proved to be impossible. No book I own has any advice at all on the matter of whether pineapple can ever make an acceptable topping for pizza; nor have I been able to locate a definitive history of this controversial dish, said to have been invented by a Greek Canadian called Sam Panopoulos at his restaurant in Ontario some time in 1962. (He was “inspired”, I gather, by certain sweet and savoury Chinese dishes rather than by a malevolent belief that some people simply do not deserve the good things in life.) Continue reading...

An early Martin Parr picture of a crowded pool in Filey, North Yorkshire shows a spirit of social realism Martin Parr took this photograph in 1972, when shivering in crowded public baths was the archetypal experience of knock-kneed British seven-year-olds. At the time Parr, aged 20, was a student of photography at Manchester Poly. His real education, though, came from his paid holiday work as an official snapper at Butlin’s by the Sea in Filey, North Yorkshire. This picture, part of an exhibition of Parr’s early work opening next week, was taken in his first year on the job, as a “black and white walkie”. He graduated the following summer to the coveted status of “colour walkie”, able to take pictures at the Hawaiian/Caribbean beachcomber bar, where a tropical storm was conjured every half an hour. You could say that Parr’s mature style as a photographer followed from that promotion. The colour-saturated images of fast food and sunburnt flesh, with which he made his name in the 1980s with series such as The Last Resort, were still to come. And you could also say that the shift in Parr’s style mirrored a shift in British society. His holiday subjects became more singular, atomised; those left behind by packaged fortnights to Greece and Spain. Continue reading...
