Fun fact: in 2014 when Paramount released their reboot of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, there was a scene where Splinter wanted to know why they snuck out of the lair and tempted Mikey with a slice of a pizza known as the "99 cheese pizza", and Donnie claimed that a pizza with 99 different types of cheeses was a culinary impossibility. After that, an Australian pizza maker, Johnny Di Francesco, took that challenge, and created a real 99 cheese pizza inspired by the film. (That's honestly one pizza I REALLY want to try.)😋

After seeing those pizzas, I think we owe anyone we've criticized for liking pineapple on pizza an apology.

Gotta give major props when you're the only person to taste test a pizza on YT

I think the issue with the Oreo Dessert Pizza, from what I can see, was from the fact that they used an actual pizza base for it. If they just made it look like pizza it would be fine.

Honestly I can see the idea behind several of these pizzas. Dessert pizzas can be a fun treat to accompany a regular pizza, and for some of the others if you picture pizza as basically being bread with toppings some of the more outlandish ideas can make sense. Like, I’ve tried some strange combinations before, but I’ve never put baked beans on my pizza. But I have made toast with melted cheese and had that with baked beans. At the end of the day you have to keep both presentation and execution in mind, and it sounds like that’s where some these pizzas failed.

"Have you ever considered putting Oreos on a pizza?"

Yes because dessert pizzas are good when done correctly.

22:31 When I saw that you were gonna make the Cadbury Cream Egg Pizza for real, at first I was like: "DON'T DO IT JOSH! IT'S TOO MUCH!! NO ONE CAN HANDLE THIS!"

But in the end, I feel like: "Wow. He was willing to do something that I and many others wouldn't do, for our and his curiosity. He is truly an amazing man."

You are very brave for making the Fior-Egg Tina and trying it 😳 I hope you didn't get sick afterwards. Keep up the great work PhantomStrider! 🎉

I'm pretty sure whoever made these pizza was just like, "Hmm, I need to make a quick buck off of a new pizza topping. I wonder what I can use" and then they see a random food in their fridge and they're like "IT'S BRILLIANT!!!"

[eccentricwallflower]

I think it's brilliant that in these types of videos you're always diplomatic when discussing your opinion. And the dedication for trying that hair-brained Cadbury egg pizza!

The fact that the Pizza Box Pizza isn't even in the honorable mentions really says a lot about how far a pizza can fall

[catguytoons]

The Brownie Pizza actually looks amazing! (though only one simple type topping like M&Ms would be necessary)

"Have you ever, EVER considered putting Oreos on a pizza?"
No, because I lack the brilliant vision to consider doing so.

Fun fact:
The banana curry pizza is called Africana pizza and is based of a popular dish in the 70’s of the same name

As a Swede who has shoved that pizza into my mouth a fair share of times, it’s a rather bland pizza, which is weird because curry and peanuts is pretty flavorful.

I've had sweet "pizza" in the past, and it was really good! It had raspberry sauce and white chocolate on a biscuit base

Eggo pizza sounds like something an 8-year-old would dream of eating when left alone on a Saturday night and decides to pair his favorite cereal with leftover pizza from his birthday.

[FringSpield]

An Oreo dessert pizza has the potential to be amazing; it’s a shame that it never works out.

I’m happy to hear someone knows what PB&J pizza is. I had this in Sandusky, Ohio and was skeptical at first, but they baked the PB similar to a cookie and used the jelly as the sauce. Definitely a weird pizza, but is a good twist!

You know your day has been made whenever Strider posts a top 6 or 10 video.

The way she says “yayy” is just hilarious 🤣
