5 of the craziest pizzas on Earth

This week we bring you a list of pizzas and places which you must try if you are a pizza fan (and why else would you be here?:) ) before you die.

Based on the Times magazine's article, the list is the following:

The go big or go home slice The Super Slice hails from Yonkers, New York pizzeria Pizza Barn, and it’s a major, major undertaking. (See: children for scale.) At about two feet long, it’s one of the world’s biggest slices, and flavors range from basic cheese to a full-on cheeseburger-and-fries-bedecked “mondo-slice.” There’s also a mac-and-cheese slice, because clearly the motto for this place is “go big or go home.” Slices start at $10 a pop. Because they feed multiple people, though, that sounds like a deal.

The $500 tequila-lobster pizza This one’s decadent. Featuring lobster, Osetra caviar, black truffle shavings, avocado, mango, and edible platinum flakes, the $500 pizza (available upon request at New York City restaurant Bodega Negra) gets its hefty price tag and claim to fame thanks especially to the inclusion of three shots of top-shelf Patrón tequilas to the mix. Those tequilas sell at the upstairs nightclub for upwards of $100 per shot. And yes, consuming this pizza will give you a buzz.

The pizza box made out of pizza

Vinnie’s Pizzeria in Brooklyn, NY, had the novel idea of turning the cardboard box into… more pizza. “No waste, as it is all 100% pizza and 100% delicious,” the pizzeria wrote of their Pizza Box Pizza invention when it debuted in 2016. “No more pizza boxes cluttering up your fridge or trash.” Instead, you get both the pie you ordered and a ton of bonus pizza, like a pizza inception. According to the site: “All precautions are taken to make sure that the PBP is delivered in a completely sanitary manner.” (Their other unusual menu item is a slice topped with mini-slices, called the Pizza on Pizza pie, of course.)

The $2,000 gold-leaf pizza

For very big spenders, the pizza order of choice can be found in New York’s Financial District. At $2,000, a restaurant called Industry Kitchen serves a version that’s topped with English Stilton cheese, French foie gras and truffles, the all-important Ossetra caviar, and 24-karat gold leaf all across the top for a very glittery and opulent presentation, brought to life by chef Braulio Bunay. The not-so-humble pie drew criticism for its ingredients.

The Cadbury Creme Egg pizza

For dessert lovers, the over-the-top Cadbury Creme Egg pizza might be just the ticket. You can find it at Crazy Pedro’s, a pizza parlor (and dive bar) in Manchester, England. They call it the “I Am The ResurrEGGtion,” and it’s a 10-inch pie “covered with chocolate sauce, sprinkled with marshmallows, brownie, meringue and topped with a soft creme egg,” as the restaurant’s Instagram explained when they launched the menu item around Easter in 2016.
