They call that donut the Pon de Ring. It's made with tapioca flour and wheat flour.

I was quite literally about to comment about the Tim Hortons pizza! It ticks me right off. Instead of bringing back any favourites, improving their existing menu or working on quality control, they decide a coffee shop is a good place for... pizza?! I'm sure it tastes fine, maybe slightly better than a cheap frozen pizza, but it might be the worst marketing ploy I've ever seen 😂 They want to increase lunch sales but keep taking away the items people actually enjoy for rice bowls, "crispy" chicken sandwiches and pizza.

@CriticalEatsJapan

I can't speak on the quality since I haven't had Tim's recently, but I do like it when places try to innovate and bring out new items ---though yeah, it does suck when favourites dissappear. Mister Donut here also carries spaghetti and hot dogs... ;)

There is a certain Tim Hortons location in Canada, that is used to "test new items" for marketing & popularity response, before those items are rolled out to all store locations. I'm guessing they had positive responses. We don't have Tim Hortons in my area, but look forward to it if I ever travel to the east coast of the US or Canada.😎👍

It would've been cool if they had tried to make the pizza on the donut itself, kinda like a bagel, if not chedar or mots they could use something like phillidepha chease

Yeah, though that would probably be confusing to the Japanese I think. There is a bagel shop I have heard of but never been too ---apparently it is just OK

There is something lonely for long time gamers when we roll dice and no one is there to laugh at our failure or cheer our success. I guess I just associate dice rolling with friends, family and fun

I associate the clack of dice with back alleys, cheap malt liquor and a sense of certain danger. The good ol’ days.

It's always important to be by a machine that goes "bing"! Especially if you're in hospital

Kind of reminds me of the pizza slices I've gotten from small bakeries there. Probably more bread-adjacent than a regular pizza slice, but still pretty good. I can get down with a houjicha donut, but Misdo won me over pretty well when I was there. I'll give anything they have a shot. 😅

I was hoping to see that it was a pizza made with a larger regular donut. Maybe Mister Donut should just stick with donuts? I'm only kidding, but maybe if they baked it a little longer it might've been tastier. If you asked nicely, would they stick it back it in the oven for a second "bing"?

Pizzatta wasn't delicious as pizza. When I ate it, staff used a microwave oven to warm it. So it was very soft due to steam. If I didn't ask the staff to warm it, the pizzata would be delicious as a pizza bread. This is just my opinion.

I'd have to pass on the pizza. It reminded me of the stuff we used to get for lunch in elementary school. Haha Great when you're a kid, but not so great as an adult. However, I would love to try the donut. It looked very similar to a mochi donut that I recently tried for the first time.
