There is such a thing as too much. And Pizza Hut Korea’s [$32 “Star Edge Pizza”](http://www.brandeating.com/2014/10/pizza-hut-koreas-ridiculous-new-star-shaped-pizza-is-dessert-and-dinner-in-one.html) doesn’t just toe the line of excess, it slip-and-slides across it on the flavored cream cheese filling stuffed inside its crust.

The surf-and-turf pie is topped with shrimp, calamari, bacon, steak and sausage, but its turnover crust is comes jam-packed with either cranberry or cinnamon apple nut and cream cheese filling.

Why would they do such a thing? This actor in the Star Edge Pizza’s bizarre ad seems to have a pretty solid answer:
