Not the Same in Singapore

When we tell people we have Pizza Hut in Singapore, they're always surprised to hear it.  What they don't realize is that the Pizza Huts in Asia aren't serving up the traditional pepperoni and cheese pies to which we Americans have grown so accustomed.  No, they have selections like this, which were advertised on their website:
A crustacean...from Pizza Hut?
Like onion rings, but grosser

It has it all!  Loads of seafood AND pineapple, all on a PIZZA!
Seriously guys, ease up on the pineapple.

So maybe now you understand how we can show up in the U.S., craving a tasty slice of Papa John's?

Salmon Sticks

I have nothing against tasty fish.  And I definitely have no qualms about delicious pasta.  But when you put the two together, jam them into a stick with some cream sauce, and then deep-fry the concoction...well, then I start to have my doubts.  Not KFC!  They think it's a great idea, and that's why they're serving up salmon sticks in some of their restaurants in Thailand. 
"We go to great lengths to please you!"  You sure do...but I'm not pleased.
Would you eat it?

Weird Pringles Flavors

This is something I shared on my other blog that people seemed to get a kick out of.  These Pringles flavors have recently shown up in Singapore- seaweed, soft-shell crab, and grilled shrimp.  I don't know about you, but in my opinion crustaceans and potato chips really don't go together...
Just how I like my chips...neon pink.

Another flavor around here is the so-called tutti-frutti flavor: blueberry and hazelnut.
