Burger stuffed pizza crust launches
First it was mozzarella, then hot dogs, now burger patties are the latest fast food to be stuffed inside a pizza crust.
Eight of them in fact, all topped with cheese and embedded snugly into the scalloped crust.
Pizza Hut's latest foray into crust-stuffing, known as 'the cheeseburger crust', is available with any large sized pizza. This fast food mash-up will set you back 700 kilojoules for the crust alone. Add the crust to a pepperoni pizza (pictured above), and the kilojoules clock up to 6907.3.
That's 863.4 kj per slice.
Or the bacon cheeseburger topping, 7169.1 kj for a whole pizza.
Nutritionist Susie Burrell says the cheeseburger crust addition is excessive, with the pizza veering close to the daily recommended intake for an adult. The Australia New Zealand Food Standards Code puts this at 8700 kj.
“The average adult will have between 6000-8000 kj per day - so a pizza is an entire day's calories, and fat is likely to be at least 10 grams a slice, if not more,” Burrell says.
Portion control is the biggest concern when it comes to such calorific indulgences, she says.

We will be heading the way of the US if we keep going down this track. 😞
I realise it is all about profit and market share, but I hope ppl will be smart enough to bypass this heart attack on a plate. (or cardboard box)

It doesn't look too bad, but I don't think I'd buy it. Actually, I know I wouldn't.
How would you eat it? It'd be awfully hard to pick up and keep it all together with that big cheeseburger hanging off the end of it. You'd have to tear pieces off it or eat it with a knife and fork.
And that's no hoo ya eet Peezza imo!

Elvis would have loved it. which raises the question in my mind of why his cook wasn't pursued like MJ's doctor murray ?
