I Can’t Believe This Hot Dog Stuffed Crust Pizza Isn’t American

Holy heart attack, this hot dog stuffed crust pizza from Pizza Hut UK is probably the most delicious meal you can get in England and I assume two is a lethal dose. I'll have seven, please.

What the hell, America‽ I thought we were the land of junk food? I thought we were hot dog heaven. I mean, sure, we didn't invent pizza, but we damn sure invented Pizza Hut! Delicious but disgusting-if-you-think-about-it cuisine is what we do best. We are fat for good goddamned reasons, and none of them involve glands. Unless you're talking about deep-fried glands, which are delicious. Especially when drizzled with mustard. I mean, mustard drizzle! That's not even an American Pizza Hut option, but now I want it.

I feel vaguely ill just reading that. And UK cuisine definitely gives the US a run for their money.

When I saw the picture, I was prepared to post "what country is that in?"

After reading the text, my world and America's place in it are spinning.

I'm gonna go with horrific. Some things aren't meant to be Pizza.

Now, a hot dog stuffed soft pretzel with mustard drizzle? That's a horse of another color. See how the mustard ties it all together? It doesn't do this with the pizza.

We are seriously slipping here. Somebody puts a processed pork product inside of a processed bread product, and it's not American? WTF?!?!

Even worse is that somebody came up with the idea, got it approved for production and marketing, and along way it was decided that hotdog stuffed pizza crust is not for America. That means even our image of being the most slovenly over the top food nation is slipping.

I'm going to have to go and peruse "this is why you're fat" just to reinforce my place in the world.

I just pulled, so oddly enough, this looks quite tasty. Amazing how that works.

Just give me a couple squares from Spumoni Gardens any day. Followed by the eponymous dessert, please.

Well, my initial reaction was that of Lovecraftian horror, but considering it comes with a "free mustard drizzle"...

The US exporting that level of junk food to the UK is the equivalent of putting smallpox in blankets meant for injuns.

this is how the world ends, an arms race of bad food as America struggles to close the mustard drizzle gap.

I think only a new offering from White Castle could sway the tide of war back in our favor.

You've spent too much time in the barrel.

pretty sure i read Scotland had already surpassed you in terms of obesity per capita. Glaswegians get telegrams from the queen on their 40th birthdays.
