WTF: Burger Pizza Is Now a Thing
By now, we’ve grown accustomed to the fact that chain restaurants overseas are NOT quite what we’re used to in the good old US of A — McDonald’s, for instance, offered its China patrons bright green Angry Birds burgers, with gravy fries for our friends in Australia, while Krispy Kreme Japan gave its customers a taste of watermelon-chocolate donuts.
The latest restaurant using its international consumers as guinea pigs? Domino’s India, which is now offering — get this — burger pizza.

With little fanfare or explanation required (“Looks like a burger, tastes like a pizza” is the slogan), Dominos is seemingly relying on its WTF factor to attract its Indian clientele — that and word of mouth, which it’s getting plenty of, as can be seen from the Tweets below:
I just woke up to news of @dominos making a #BurgerPizza can this Saturday get any better

But how does it taste? While hype for this hybrid concoction is up, reviews are mixed. @kunalkalra88 says it’s great…
Just tried @dominos_india's #BurgerPizza and it tastes really awesome. Innovative way to have burger and pizza at d same time.

While @tweet2_ravi says not so much.

WHICH IS IT, GUYS? Since we can’t taste this oddity ourselves without one heck of a plane ride, we’re gonna’ need you to get on the same page with this one and come to a swift and judicial verdict! We’re more than a little curious, and you’re our only hope.
Would you try a burger pizza if it were to come to the States? Let us know over @BritandCo!
