Results: Two Controversial New Foods

Pizza Hut has teamed up with a century-old Hong Kong restaurant to put a modern spin on a traditional dish, or more simply, snake on a pizza. The new offering combines shredded snake meat, black mushrooms and Chinese dried ham – all indispensable ingredients of an authentic snake stew. Some diners in Hong Kong and around southern China have long enjoyed snake stew, especially during the colder months. The 9-inch pizza, which comes with abalone sauce instead of the conventional tomato base, is on sale until November 22. "Paired with cheese and diced chicken, the snake meat becomes richer in taste," Pizza Hut Hong Kong said in a statement before the dish went on sale last week, adding that the "nourishing" meat "can boost blood circulation" – a common belief in traditional Chinese medicine. Would you try either of these?

Perdue believes it has a clever way to combat criticism about chicken production: sell humans practically the same food it feeds its chickens. The company has created "Chix Mix," a new snack that is "made from most of the same ingredients" that's in the company's chicken feed. The stunt promotes Perdue's vegetarian and antibiotic-free chicken feed, because the company said in a release that consumers have become "increasingly interested in the health and quality of the foods they eat." Perdue's chicken feed contains grains, primarily consisting of corn and soybeans and is mixed with vitamins, minerals and amino acids to "ensure a nutritionally balanced diet," according to its website. Chix Mix is similar: The snack contains corn, wheat puffs and edamame, but with a dash of barbecue spices "just for humans," a release said. Humans can order the limited-edition snack for free on November 17 at 12:00 pm ET. Would you try Chix Mix?
