Needs clarification:

oreos as a topping for pizza?

oreos as a crust for pizza?

The crushed-up-Oreos part seems like a fine idea, but I can practically taste exactly what kind of cheap-ass fluffed-syrup cream-junk they're pouring on top, and it's not pleasant.

How can you be unconvinced by the freaking CHOCOTACO? There is more or less no cheap frozen thingie more delicious than that.*

* Except for the cookie bits in Twix ice cream and that one Oreo cookie sandwich that tastes really graham-y.

"Use a spoon to drizzle the jizz over the face cookies. Use as much as desired."

kenan, Thursday, 13 September 2007 20:12 (eighteen years ago)

I don't understand why pizza places are always so disgusting and transparent about making fake desserts. If they want to deliver desserts, they should deliver actual desserts -- you know, stock some giant cookies or something, run them through the oven for a minute, Fresh Warm Cookies. Instead, they either (a) offer you something that's clearly just repurposed pizza shit, like "frosted cinnamon sticks" that are transparently just pizze dough, or worse, (b) they think their desserts somehow have to be pizza-themed and pizza-shaped, like a "dessert pizza." This is totally batshit: when I'm ready to order dessert at an Italian restaurant, they don't offer me chocolate linguini with hazelnut meatballs or whatever, and this is fine by everyone involved.

So it feels like for years and years chain delivery pizza places have been trying to make a dessert work, and none of them EVER seem to work or last -- (but then why do they keep doing it? just to pique your interest now and then? or do people just grumble and take it, because if you're eating crap pizza you should at least get rewarded with some sugar?) -- and even at the point of lowest-possible-standards, like 99% of anyone I know would never dream of getting a crap dessert from a pizza chain.

There's at least one local chain that offers pints of ice cream for delivery. They make good pies, too.

GUYS why are you comparing choco tacos to Icees/Slurpees and ice cream sandwiches? The point is desserts that are disguised as dinner items, like oreo pizza. Ice cream sandwiches kind of count I guess.

Ha, Chaki, YES, that is the Oreo sandwich I was talking about! The Oreos in that have somehow exaggerated the sort of grahamy / oaty taste that's so submerged in regular Oreos. Extremely good.

The beauty of the ChocoTaco is that it's taken a classy ice-cream treat -- a waffle bowl filled with ice cream and topped with chocolate -- and folded it up into a self-contained imitation Mexican food. It's the best thing since the GelatoEnchilada.

G00blar, Thursday, 13 September 2007 21:53 (eighteen years ago)

Relating a bit to what nabisco said upthread, I feel "wtf" about chain pizza places' food offerings in general. When I was a kid, I remember Pizza Hut ended up having three varieties of pizza at one point, and that seemed like a big deal at the time. (original pan, thin & crispy, and, uh, "hand-tossed"). Thing is, they were all pretty decent.

But, somewhere along the way, Pizza Hut and Domino's started introducing a different variety seemingly every few months, and each time it was as if they were trying to up the ante on the disgusting factor. At this point I think they are up to quadruple stuffed-crust cheese 'n' buffalo wings meat lover's dipping nugggets, or something like that. It does seem to really be heading in the direction of Japanese-style "pizza". I'm half-expecting next month's offering to include chopped-up frankfurters and mayo on top of a tuna, bacon, and cheese-whiz-stuffed cinnamon-tortilla crust.

dell, Thursday, 13 September 2007 22:01 (eighteen years ago)

i haven't, max -- but i've heard about it a lot. maybe i'll check it out this weekend?

remy bean, Thursday, 13 September 2007 22:04 (eighteen years ago)

stuffed crust is not by itself something I have any negative feelings about.

kenan, Thursday, 13 September 2007 22:05 (eighteen years ago)

Yeah but why can't they stuff the crust with just regular pizza cheese? Why this cream-cheese-textured abomination? I mean, don't get me wrong--more cheese on a pizza is A++, but does it have to be that shit?

Curt1s is coming to Zwinktopia !, Thursday, 13 September 2007 22:13 (eighteen years ago)

I think the issue is that pizza chains are working with materials that aren't even 10% as sophisticated as a Taco Bell: they just have endless freezer/vat supplies of dough/sauce/cheese and a few vacuum bags of toppings, and then they run them through a conveyor-belt oven. Anything else they want to serve you has to be crappy enough to fit into a system with no real kitchen and no real ingredients -- it pretty much has to come straight out of a bag. Half the time it doesn't even come out, and you get a sealed plastic packet at home. These people just aren't in any position to pretend to be able to make anything other than cheap pizza.

nabisco, Thursday, 13 September 2007 22:16 (eighteen years ago)

Now, see, a McDonald's, at least they've got a deep-fryer, and a bunch of microwaves, and stuff! They've got the tools to actually pretend to do stuff, now and then!

this thread otm what hath man wrought! can't wait til pizza technology achieves sentience and forcefeeds us all the cheese jizz enemas we so clearly desire. dassa spicy meatball! LOL

tremendoid, Thursday, 13 September 2007 22:20 (eighteen years ago)

Yeah but why can't they stuff the crust with just regular pizza cheese?

otm x 1000

Jordan, Thursday, 13 September 2007 22:21 (eighteen years ago)

the stuffing is the problem. stop being gross

tremendoid, Thursday, 13 September 2007 22:26 (eighteen years ago)

Is the stuffing supposed to be ricotta-ish?

Laurel, Thursday, 13 September 2007 22:32 (eighteen years ago)

Yeah, sort of, except it's obviously not ricotta--it's like they took a fast food approach (make everything greasier, tastier) to making something that's a bit of classier and ended up in no man's land.

I like what you were thinking, Pizza Hut; I too have dreamt about having melted cheese ooze out of everything into which I bite. But it can't be just any melted cheese, oh no. IF YOU'RE GONNA DO SOMETHING, DO IT RIGHT.

G00blar, Thursday, 13 September 2007 22:46 (eighteen years ago)

should read: "it's like they took a fast food approach (make everything greasier, tastier) to imitating something that's a bit classier"

OLIVE GARDEN TAKE NOTE

G00blar, Thursday, 13 September 2007 22:47 (eighteen years ago)

Oreos are terrible already, on a pizza with that goo they look frightening.

Its funny though, an old pizza restaurant from my hometown thats been around since the early 70s used to have a dessert pizza on its menu. It was a thin crust and it had cream cheese, sultanas and cinammon/icing sugar. Kind of morroccan or something I guess.

I never tried one though.

Trayce, Thursday, 13 September 2007 22:56 (eighteen years ago)

i misspoke, the act of stuffing things into the crawlspaces of the pizza is the problem. do people not know they can buy cheese all by itself, in big solid blocks? totally legal, have at it! let poor pizza hut concentrate on getting actual pizza right.

tremendoid, Thursday, 13 September 2007 22:58 (eighteen years ago)

Just out of curiosity, how unpalatable is Olive Garden's food? The worst restaurant of that ilk that I've ever eaten at was Applebee's.

dell, Thursday, 13 September 2007 22:58 (eighteen years ago)

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

ILX System, Thursday, 13 September 2007 23:01 (eighteen years ago)

Olive Garden is perfectly fine. So is Applebee's, really, if they don't screw anything up.

nabisco, Thursday, 13 September 2007 23:02 (eighteen years ago)

I just got xposted by a MACHINE

nabisco, Thursday, 13 September 2007 23:02 (eighteen years ago)

Also, am I totally off in remembering Pizza Hut's food as being pretty good up through, say, the early '90's? I have a feeling that they took a serious dive south in the last dozen years or so. But maybe a distorted memory plus my then-youthful and inexperienced young palate make for a loss of credibility points in asserting this to be the case.

dell, Thursday, 13 September 2007 23:06 (eighteen years ago)

BAN TREMENDOID

G00blar, Thursday, 13 September 2007 23:09 (eighteen years ago)

Well, I've had one meal in my life at Applebee's and it was pretty wretched, and basically seemed like the kind of thing that couldn't be screwed up (it was fish and chips-- so I assume that it's the kind of thing that they just dig out of the vacuum-sealed bag and throw into a fryer...

dell, Thursday, 13 September 2007 23:11 (eighteen years ago)

xxp The beginning of the end was that huge 'monster' pizza they started selling, the cheese on that was inedible. I don't think they went wholesale to that type of cheese(they wouldn't still be in business) but a bunch of changes were made to the cheese and consistency of the pizzas, to the point that now their default pizza is all sloppy like a hot pocket turned inside out. not my thing.

tremendoid, Thursday, 13 September 2007 23:11 (eighteen years ago)

I think, also, that they stopped putting beer in the cheese.

G00blar, Thursday, 13 September 2007 23:12 (eighteen years ago)

then-youthful and inexperienced young palate

durr. Hunger-induced tautology.

dell, Thursday, 13 September 2007 23:13 (eighteen years ago)

Thanks, tremedoid. That would make sense; the lower-quality cheese thing and probably adjustments to the crust recipe and stuff. I had a couple of slices at a friend's place earlier in the year, and it was not what I remembered it once being.

Hot pocket turned inside-out, ack!

dell, Thursday, 13 September 2007 23:17 (eighteen years ago)

ok this half-assed oreo pizza thing is gross and dumb but srsly - people don't like oreos??? i haven't had any in years (!) so maybe it's a childhood nostalgia thing but oreos are good! oh but also i remember american friends/aquaintances always saying that canadian oreos were like 345234 times better than american oreos. i don't think i've ever tried american oreos. wld do this taste test though.

rrrobyn, Friday, 14 September 2007 03:34 (eighteen years ago)

siding with american, however, i do want to try a chocotaco one of these days and i don't think they exist here. oreo ice cream and ice cream sandwiches do though, and they are goood.

rrrobyn, Friday, 14 September 2007 03:37 (eighteen years ago)

oreo milkshakes or oreos in ice cream are good

latebloomer, Friday, 14 September 2007 04:00 (eighteen years ago)

chocotacos are down by law, u have to get them with the shells properly stale and chewy = delight. oreos are alright i guess, i don't bother with them.

tremendoid, Friday, 14 September 2007 04:04 (eighteen years ago)

God the ad for this stuff is so fucking disgusting. Sorry I'm late to the party.

it's spelled 'raspberry'?!

tremendoid, Friday, 14 September 2007 04:08 (eighteen years ago)

oreos are great, rrobyn!

horseshoe, Friday, 14 September 2007 04:59 (eighteen years ago)

the shells properly stale and chewy

I had never previously realized how absolutely key and true this is! Once these things have been sitting around for a while ... it's like the shells have been infused with butterscotch.

so i bought oreos for the first time in like 10 years (?) and liked the first two enough to eat two more and then the weird chemical after-taste hit me but then i ate two more anyway just to make sure and then i felt really GROSS
i didn't know what to do so i just drank some decaf chai and waited for the ill to pass
ugh
this was hours ago and i still feel weird

I'm pretty sure you were lied to, Jordan. Potatoes don't have dinguses any more than chickens have fingers.

There was totally an online video where a kid was showing how to make the pizza using domino's official recipe book, and he keeps saying "this is probably really illegal"-- what happened to this? did anyone else see it? i see no link in this thread...

I actually like both Oreos and shitty delivery pizza - although I tend to prefer either really cheap, really shitty local pizzeria or expensive-and-still-headache-inducing-but-so-so-good Pizza Hut. No MOR Dominos or Pizza Hut for me! But the Oreo Pizza is completely revolting as a concept. Probably sort of tolerable as junk food - but looking at it and comprehending the idea of eating a whole one is insane. The ads should really play up more of a party scenario - like eight people ordering three pizzas and hey, we'll split one of those dessert pizzas too. When it's just a couple dudes and they have one pizza and one Oreo pizza it makes you have to imagine eating half of one of those things....oooogh.

Nabisco (the ILXor, not the oreo manufacturer) and Tremendoid do make some interesting points here. Is there a website or book or something that charts the evolution of the high-concept pizza promotion? I have a vague sense of this starting sometime in the mid-to-late-90s and basically becoming an annual thing ever since, with Pizza Hut definitely taking the lead on stupid gimmick pizzas - stuffed crust, sure, but the Quad, the P'Zone, surely others that I forget...

This is all making me really want some Little Caesar's Crazy Bread though.

Doctor Casino, Thursday, 20 September 2007 00:02 (eighteen years ago)

No website, but there was at least one best-selling book, as well as an NBC miniseries a couple of years ago, which was based on the book. I can't for the life of me remember the name of it, now, but I'm sure someone else here can dig it up.

dell, Thursday, 20 September 2007 00:09 (eighteen years ago)

"The Stuffed Crust Monologues" made the rounds of a bunch of university towns a few years back, as well. It threatened to give the "Puppetry of the Penis" guys a run for their money.
