When I travel, I like to try the sorts of local delicacies that you can’t eat at home. This would include the goat meat stew I ate in Curacao (which, unbeknownst to me, had psychedelic mushrooms included at no extra charge), guinea pig in Peru, haggis in Scotland and puffin in Iceland.

But I’m guessing that if I land at a Pizza Hut in China, I’ll skip the “Goblin Pizza.”

The Goblin Pizza is a limited-edition, thick-crust pie topped with… well, a deep-fried bullfrog. And, to enhance the aesthetic experience, the pizza also features halved hard-boiled eggs and black olives that serve as stand-ins for the dead frog’s eyes.

I am not making this up.
