We have all heard about the Pizza Hut “Golden Crown” cheeseburger pizza. I am sorry to say it is available in Saudi Arabia. Further, I am about to make an order for my weekly PH pizza.

Maybe when I was younger I was more adventurous, but I looking at it, I have lost my nerve. Still I have half an hour before prayer time. Maybe I ought to try it.

This is the Straight Dope. We strive for knowledge. _Not_ trying this pizza is **not an option**.

Now go order one and eat at least one section of it, then report back here.

You want to post about it, then suck it up and order it (and eat it).

Don’t be posting about it and not eating it. That’s just wrong.

Is it even legal to possess pigmeat in Saudi Arabia?

Probably not…hence the whoosh-able comment.

This.

The guy that Collegehumor sent there gave a pretty piss-poor review of it. Although, I guess that it’s mediocre anyway, so what’s the big rush in hearing about it being a letdown.

Yes, by all means, try it. And then get the following printed on a tee-shirt:

“I was an infidel in Saudi Arabia and all I got was a lousy cheeseburger pizza”

Pizza Hut here in Trinidad had for a short time macaroni and cheese pizza, an employee let us try a small piece for free and it was horrible. (Think pizza crust and put mac and cheese on top, no sauce).

One welcome thing is Subway and KFC have both introduced shadow benny sauce YUM!

My university’s food service once offered cheeseburger pizza. I had to try it.

It was, I shit you not, pizza crust with ketchup, hamburger, American cheese, lettuce, and tomatoes. It was literally a cheeseburger on a pizza crust. It was, frankly, one of the most disgusting things I’ve ever eaten in my life.

Clearly you’ve not been to Scotland. Chip shops here will [deep-fry frozen pizzas in batter.](http://fxcuisine.com/Default.asp?language=2&Display=112&resolution=high)
