Pizza Dog - Hungry Belly Cafe, Dannevirke

I saw this monstrosity and realised two things.  I had to try it, and I should start a new section of this blog forbizarre foods that shouldn't exist yet do.

This is a very average sausage of some kind, perhaps one that wanted to be a frankfurter when it was a kid, but didn't quite make it.  Then they wrap the sausage in a twist or knot of pretty average quality squishy bun dough.  Then they top the whole shebang with pizza toppings, not good ones mind - things like bad tomato sauce, ham, cheese, pineapple, onions & olives.  It comes out of the oven looking pretty much as you see it below.

I tried not to judge this book by its very dubious cover and honestly I didn't think this was going to be bad, because if nothing ese I figured cheese & sausage in bread is at least something familiar.  Unfortunately as a combination this was somehow worse than the sum of its parts.  

It wasn't so much that the flavours, textures or ideas had been smashed together & everything was in competition and clashing.  No, if anything it was predominantly bland with only pineapple standing out as a flavour of any kind.  I wouldn't try it again, but its clearly very popular as they had trays of them awaiting the lunchtime rush.
