A Costco food court fan has come up with a delicious and groundbreaking culinary delight. A TikTok user just revolutionized junk food fusion in a viral video racking up over 3.6 million views this month according to the Daily Mail. In the clip, a diner pulls off the ultimate DIY upgrade – peeling the cheese off a slice of pizza and slapping it onto one of the chain’s iconic hot dogs.
Viewers commented on the genius of the idea. The “genius” of this creation is its simplicity: buy a hot dog, buy a slice of pizza, and roll them together like you’re an eight- year-old left unsupervised at a birthday party. No fancy chefs, no secret menu – just unbridled American excess on a paper plate. The calorie count? Let’s just say if you have to ask, you probably shouldn’t eat it.
One fan of this creation exclaimed, “I’ve never wanted something so bad in my life.”
The TikToker didn’t name the creation they created but the “pizza-cheese hot dog” sounds like a winner. If you need something cooler or hipper, maybe “Cheeza Dog” or “Pizza Pup”? Or possibly the “Grease Beast”??
This gastronomic monstrosity making the rounds on social media won’t cost you too much – $1.50 for the dog (includes a drink) and another $1.99 for a slice of pizza.
Costco itself hasn’t officially endorsed this delectable dish, but they’ll be smiling big if their food court profits skyrocket in the near future.
Will the pizza-cheese hot dog become a Costco classic? Maybe. But if this “hack” proves anything, it’s that Americans will never stop finding new ways to reinvent food – making it even greasier, cheesier, and more calorie-packed than before.
