Belgian style French fries with Italian cheese, sold in a Dutch Lidl, a company from Germany? Makes sense...

That's the European dream baby!

It's like the song festival of pizza.

It looks like something Aldi in the US would carry, it's pretty common for them to have weird pizzas. Germans, do your grocery stores sell weird pizzas there or is it just something inflicted on the rest of us?

Where I am from in the Netherlands near the German border, it's mostly margherita, bolognese, quattro stagione, 4 cheeses or Hawaii, nothing like this...surprised there was Dutch language on the box.

Belgians certainly won't have a clue what this 'Belgian style' cuisine is, but Germans and the Dutch apparently think they sprinkle fries on anything. We think of Belgian cuisine as crude cut fries with mayonaise.

It's not a regular product. It's part of one of these "country/region promotion" that Lidl and Aldi do.

Our supermarket pizzas are very boring

The most exciting ones are probably ones with barely spicy chili peppers on them

if you eat it, you're gonna have a bad time

I think this is common outside of the United States?

I have a friend in England that eats this shit all the time.

I've seen this in a few places in Italy

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

Yeah, I saw this more than once, sometimes even with hotdog sausage.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

I believe it's called a London pizza

[–] [email protected] 8 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I don't know how I feel about a frozen version, but a fresh pie topped with fries sounds pretty good to me.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

The fries gotta be crispy. I'm concerned about them turning soggy from the steam of the pizza.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 4 months ago

I have no idea why, but my middle school served triangle/cardboard pizza (Tony's, maybe?) and French fries as a meal combo every damn day. My little 12 year old mind couldn't comprehend why they would just let us eat two of the best foods every day for lunch, but I loved it.

Now, I doubt this would taste the same, but it's definitely a good combination.

And you have problem with pineapple, in the world where this exists.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago

I’d eat it. God is dead.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago

It's a common kid's pizza in Italy. Here everybody gets a whole pizza, even kids.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

I've seen this on the menu in Italie. But hooo no! No pineapple!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

Better than Sour Patch Oreos, I guess

Belgian style? Dit is laster.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago
