Wow.
For as much as Japanese cuisine is about delicate, precious presentation and things as simple and stunning as sushi (not to mention healthy), it often makes me laugh to see some of the absolutely ridiculous things that come out of their culinary creativity. The above photo, from the Pizza Hut Japan website, is of what I think is called the Double Roll. Remember Stuffed Crust Pizzas, where there was cheese tucked inside the crust of the pizza? The Double Roll takes that concept and basically blows it up by adding hot dogs and pepperoni (I think) to the crust like tiny corn dogs or maybe pigs in blankets, then throws on peas, corn and miniature hamburger patties as toppings.
It sort of makes me think of that SNL spot of Taco Town, making a joke of the most ridiculous taco/burrito/pancake thing. The Double Roll, however, is a real thing.
I am amazed.
