Bacon on Your Ice Cream? Hot Dog in Your Pizza?

By drodriguez Apr 17, 2012

Recently, we’ve seen a lot of changes from fast food restaurants as they try to keep up with their competitors, like Burger King’s addition of beer and wine to the menu, home delivery options, and new healthier menu. But now it looks as though BK’s new menu revamp may not include only healthier fair. The fast food restaurant is testing a new bacon sundae that is available exclusively in Nashville, Tennessee. Customers can get the usual toppings like fudge and caramel, but a strip of bacon will now be included for those who want to give it a try.

A CBS News report discusses the new Burger King bacon sundae as well as Pizza Hut’s foray into the unusual menu option.

Pizza Hut restaurants in the U.K. are now offering customers a different kind of sausage on their pies. The “Hot Dog Stuffed Crust” pizza is exactly what it sounds like, a hot dog baked inside the crust of the pizza with a mustard drizzle to top it off. Maybe this will get kids to eat their pizza crust? Unfortunately for those who think this sounds like an appetizing pizza addition, there are currently no plans of bringing the “Hot Dog Stuffed Crust” pizza to the states.

What do you think of the new menu options at Burger King and Pizza Hut?

Are either of these new menu items something you would consider ordering?

The bacon on ice cream and the hot dog in pizza really make me sick. I would never try it. It sounds really disgusting. It would not be anything that I would buy.

I would do the bacon in maple ice cream with little bits of pancake in it. I love VooDoo doughnuts maple bacon bar. Yummy! Bacon is great on so many different things.

I tried Jack in the Box's limited time only bacon shake. I'm not much for junk food but on that rare occasion what the heck.

The hot dog in the pizza I would have to pass on, but I would try the bacon sundae... There is a place where I live that makes maple cupcakes w/ bacon as a sprinkle... so tasty!

I would try it if it was chocolate covered bacon. I can't stand hot dogs so I would pass on that.

I don't think I's like bacon with ice cream now fries that's a different story I love fries and ice cream. The sweet and salty is a great taste to me. As for the hot dog pizza if they fried the weiners and put them on the top like pepperoni I think I would try that.
