Naturally, Jon Stewart decided to talk about this on _The Daily Show_ Tuesday night, connecting it to some other recent news: Donald Trump’s presidential bid. “If the Donald is running for president, we’re gonna need an appropriate nosh to celebrate,” Stewart said. “But what food could possibly match the depravity and excess of a Donald Trump candidacy?” Enter the “hot dog bites pizza.” Stewart’s first comment about this fast food monstrosity: “What kind of idiot would willingly put this in their mouth?” From there, he goes into a really elaborate (and, warning, really graphic) monologue about this food item, so prepare yourself. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/3924402/pizza-hut-hot-dog-pizza-jon-stewart/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/3924402/pizza-hut-hot-dog-pizza-jon-stewart/"},"headline":"Here's What Jon Stewart Thinks About Pizza Hut's New Hot Dog Stuffed Crust Pizza","datePublished":"2015-06-17T16:00:52.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:21:13.065Z","description":"He's got some elaborate and graphic opinions","url":"https://time.com/3924402/pizza-hut-hot-dog-pizza-jon-stewart/","keywords":["Newsfeed","Food & Drink"],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Samantha Grossman","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/samantha-grossman/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/3924402/pizza-hut-hot-dog-pizza-jon-stewart/","name":"Here's What Jon Stewart Thinks About Pizza Hut's New Hot Dog Stuffed Crust Pizza"}}]},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"VideoObject","name":"History of the Hot Dog","description":"The history of tubular meat goes way back.","thumbnailUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/v2/media/FsYX58r5/poster.jpg?width=720","uploadDate":"2014-07-03T14:40:34.000Z","contentUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/manifests/FsYX58r5.m3u8","embedUrl":"https://time.com/3924402/pizza-hut-hot-dog-pizza-jon-stewart/","duration":"PT1M7S","potentialAction":{"@type":"SeekToAction","target":"https://time.com/3924402/pizza-hut-hot-dog-pizza-jon-stewart/?jw_start={seek_to_second_number}","startOffset-input":"required name=seek_to_second_number"}}] ```
