I've mentioned often that China hasn't a clue what pizza is except that it's round. Slight exaggeration but only slight. 20 years ago it was unknown. Most obviously they haven't a clue what to put on it. All sorts of atricities. So, it's time to present the evidence for the prosecution. All images are from my local delivery service listings.

I'll start with the most egregious - the feared and loathed durian pizza. You didn't think I was going to buy one, did you?
