If you are a fan of Japan's often quirky flavor combinations, this one certainly fits the bill. It's a collaboration between Pizza Hut and Kit Kat called the "Handy Melts Sweet and Sour Strawberry", and quirky it definitely is. Basically, it's a strawberry-infused pizza dough, filled with mozzarella cheese and actual strawberry Kit Kat pieces. If you like things that have that kinda sweet/salty flavor combination going on, then you might enjoy this. It's cheaper to get it in store, too, rather than having it delivered, so I would recommend doing that if you want to give it a try.

Ever heard the saying "just because you can, doesn't mean you should"? I feel like that applies to this item. My husband and I had seen it online and curiosity got the better of us, but it wasn't either of our cups of tea. To me, mozzarella cheese is a savory food and shouldn't go with sweet things (pineapple on pizza perhaps is an exception to my broad rule there!) but this was just...not good. I would say that if you like to try weird things for novelty value then this is the only reason you should try this.
