Like a Taco Bell Gordita, Only Grosser

taco pizza.jpgButch’s Pizza has been around in Appleton, Wis. for several decades. Sounds like a good, traditional, family-style pizzeria.

Butch’s is filled with charm. For example, [owner Ned] Montanye’s community involvement is evidenced by the dozens of youth sports trophies that adorn the walls.

On the menu: I couldn’t decide on just one pie, so I just ordered two. I got a 14-inch Butch’s Special ($15.20) on thin crust, which is topped with sausage, mushrooms, pepperoni, green peppers and onions.

“All the flavors blend together really well,” Montanye. “I like adding bacon to it. That really jazzes it up.”

So far so… great! Awesome! Perfect! But then…

I also ordered a 14-inch Taco Pizza ($18.25), which is made with taco meat, lettuce, tomato, taco sauce on the side and, as a nice touch, crushed Doritos on top.

“Our taco pizza I think is amazing,” said Ned. “It is so filling. There is a lot of stuff on there.”

Speechless. Horrified. More here.

Though I’ve learned the Internet is rife with taco pizza recipes, anyone who craves such crap deserves to eat the Burrito Mexicalian Pizza, which features as its first ingredient “1 box single cheese pizza mix.” Check out Norway’s inexplicably “singing” taco pizza here.

Hey, if it’s round and covered in a melty substance…
