Pizza Hut Hot Dog Stuffed Crust Pizza

Canada.

Australia.

U.K.

South Korea.

Since 2012, these are countries that have had the Hot Dog Stuffed Crust Pizza offered at their Pizza Hut restaurants at one time or another. Absent from this list is the pizza and hot dog-loving United States. But that may change on June 18.

Impulsive Buy reader The Groove Machine sent us this photo of a promotional flyer that features a French’s mustard packet with another condiment packet that has printed on it a Venn diagram with a hot dog in one circle and a pizza in another. It could mean Pizza Hut will finally be offering their Hot Dog Stuffed Crust Pizza in the U.S. Or it could be a pizza that’s topped with hot dogs and mustard. Or maybe they’re doing what Burger King recently did.

We’ll find out on June 18.

If you have any information about it, please share it in the comments.

This is the first Peter Pan product we’ve ever covered. I think it’s time to celebrate…with some Skippy peanut butter. Sorry, Peter Pan. That’s all I’ve got in the kitchen right now. (Spotted by Adam at Tops Friendly Markets.)

McDonald's Oreo Frappe

Update: We reviewed it! Click here to read our review.

Our internet pal Nick from On Second Scoop sent us a photo of a poster promoting a McCafe Oreo Frappé. According to a friend of Nick’s who works at a McDonald’s in Johnstown, NY, “It’s a mocha base but the base is mixed with something else as well. I don’t know what it is, and we add cookies and cream syrup and a spoonful of crushed Oreo. Topped with whipped cream and a light dusting of crushed Oreos.”

After a quick internet search, it appears the Oreo Frappé has been around for a few weeks in several markets, including Kansas City and Florida where it’s called the Cookies ‘n Creme Frappé. It’s unknown whether it’s a test product or a regional product.

If you’ve tried it, let us know what you think of it in the comments.
