A pizza topped with: cheese, soy beans, corn, pepperoni, mushrooms, mini-hot dogs and hamburger patties, and your choice of ketchup or maple syrup topping, is now available from Pizza Hut Japan.

Wow, I dunno what to say about this except it makes my choices of cheese, cheese and pineapple look completely normal.

Yikes. Arteries hardening just looking at it! Mini hot dogs!

Is corn on pizza a common thing in Japan, gomi?

Also, you have to go find one of these and take a picture of it.

This makes me sure that we are just butchering Japanese food in the States.

Now, that's just silly.

Yeah corn on pizza is a very common thing. As is mayo and broccoli.

Corn on pizza sounds kind of appealing. I'm imagining some kind of 'Southwestern' thing--cornmeal crust, black-bean-and-corn salsa, pepper jack, like that.

'Pizza,' at this point, pretty much only means round flat bread with something on top, right?

Here in the UK we have such delights as 'Tandoori Chicken Pizza', the vile Hawaiian (here made with 'smoked formed ham' from Germany and Denmark) and the microwaveable pizza.

My local Dominos offers such delights as

- the Scrummy ("Topped with Domino’s own Tomato Sauce, Pepperoni, Ham, Chorizo, Tandoori Chicken, Meatballs & Smoky Bacon")

- the Full House ("Onions, green peppers, pepperoni, sausage, mushrooms, ground beef, ham, sweetcorn, pineapple")

- the Texas BBQ ("Texas barbecue sauce, roast chicken, smoky bacon, onions, green peppers")

I realise now I had never eaten pizza until I went to New York.

At some point, it loses the right to call itself a pizza. Those things described above are indeed some sort of food product, but if you can call them pizza, you've disolved all category and destinction so much that it's silly to then turn around and differentiate man from woman, black from white, left from white, up from down! Verily, everything is pizza!

Now this I could go for. Peanut-butter flavoured crust, with chocolate topping and assorted clown heads. Hold the anchovies.

posted by essexjan 12 November | 13:13

Are those pigs in a blanket around the edge of the crust?
Mmmm.

Broccoli on pizza is actually quite good. And an Indian place by us recently opened as an extension of their restaurant and grocery. They do an awesome paneer chile and a sinful good spicy cauliflower pizza.

When I was in Italy I had pizza with a fried egg on top. It was amazing.
