Now That's A Stuffed Crust

Improbably, our nation is falling behind in the stuffed-crust pizza race. Pizza Hut UK unveiled a hot dog-stuffed pizza. "Pizza Hut's contribution to British cuisine," CSPI snarked on its Facebook page. To which I say, the Brits have never been known for their cuisine to begin with.

Not to be outdone, Pizza Hut Middle East concocted a pizza 'crowned' with mini-cheeseburgers on the crust and burger toppings in the middle.

Pizza Hut Middle East also has a Crown Crust pizza with pieces of chicken fillet in the crust.

Considering how many food-policing laws and ideas come from abroad, it's nice to occasionally see some American-style food extravagance in other countries. These products go against the notion that Americans are the world's worst gluttons. France, the country considered most sophisticated in all things food, actually loves McDonald's and recently started selling McBaguette burgers. Fast food and fine cuisine can co-exist just fine, despite what any food snob might tell you.

P.S. Do you remember which conservative star appeared in one of the first Pizza Hut stuffed crust ads?
