Summary
  • •Pizza Hut launches a pizza with a whole hot dog on the crust for a limited time in Canada
  • •An upgraded version of the hot dog pizza that went viral in the 2010s, just in time for the baseball season
  • •Global brands such as IKEA are also creating a stir on social media with their unique hot dog menus.

A whole hot dog in a crust

Pizza Hut is introducing a unique pizza with a whole hot dog baked on the crust to coincide with the opening of the baseball season. This new product, unlike the existing ‘Hot Dog Bites’ version, has a hot dog inside the crust for each slice of pizza.

The product will be sold for a limited time at stores across Canada starting March 30, and the standard price for a medium-sized cheese pizza is set at 19.99 Canadian dollars (about 20,000 won).

The return of ‘viral pizza’ in the 2010s

Pizza Hut's hot dog pizza became a hot topic around the world when it was first released in the 2010s. At the time, the 'Hot Dog Bites' version sold in Australia, Thailand, the Middle East, the US, and the UK baffled both pizza lovers and hot dog fans with its unexpected combination of pizza and hot dog, and went viral on social media.

Pizza Hut explained, "The new Hot Dog Stuffed Crust combines two signature game-watching foods in one unique bite. This limited edition, launched to coincide with the return of baseball season, stimulates nostalgia and indulgence, making it the perfect meal for watching the game with friends at home."

‘Big-size hot dog’ competition between global brands

Pizza Hut is not the only company trying out unique hot dog menus. Earlier this year, IKEA attracted attention by unveiling an extra-large hot dog measuring approximately 50 cm (20 inches) in length, sold only in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Global restaurant brands are actively launching ‘impactful’ limited menus targeting sports seasons and social media virality.
