With all due respect to our friends across the pond, the UK isn't exactly known for its food. Its beer? Music, literature, royal scandals? Sure. But food, not so much.
But even grading on the curve, chef Gordon Ramsay's latest concoction is... well, a head-scratcher, to say the least.
Or, in the internet's opinion, a crime punishable with a lifetime prison sentence.
Ladies and gentlemen, behold: The full English breakfast pizza.

For the uninitiated, a "full English" typically includes toast, fried eggs, British bacon (more like very fatty ham), tomatoes and mushrooms, sausages, and sometimes black pudding made from pig's blood (mmm!) or haggis, depending on the region.
The piece de resistance, the thing that truly makes it a British breakfast, is baked beans. But not the sweet, barbecue-y baked beans we have in the States. Think more like beans in Spaghetti-Os sauce and you'll have the idea.
It's an acquired taste for the uninitiated (and even for many Brits). But imagine it on a pizza. If you're screaming "no!" like Michael Scott on The Office, you are not alone.
But Ramsay's concoction is arguably even worse than it sounds, because he also incorporated Bloody Mary ingredients to make a true one-stop shop experience.
That means the pizza was topped with egg, sausage, bacon and black pudding, with a sauce made of baked beans, vodka, Worcestershire sauce and Tabasco.
POLICE!!! Call the FBI, call the SWAT team, call the International Criminal Court in the Hague, call God Himself to smite Ramsay because this is truly an abomination against everything good and true, let alone pizza.
And on the internet, Ramsay's full English breakfast pizza went over like... well, like black pudding or haggis, frankly.
Pretty bold move for the man behind this gif.

Anyway, it seems the UK's legacy for not exactly being the culinary capital of Europe is secure. Thanks, Mr. Ramsay!
