Breakfast and dinner are about to collide in the form of Papa John's new Chicken and Waffle Pizza. While the new flavor may sound like its coming from left field, it's actually exactly what pizza fans want.
Earlier this month, Papa John's took to Twitter to ask fans what new specialty pizza they would prefer: Chicken and Waffles or Huevos Rancheros. More than 52,000 votes were cast and the Chicken and Waffles came out on top with more than 70 percent of the votes. As a result, the brand is working on a new sweet-and-savory pizza option that will include crispy chicken, waffle crumbles, bacon, and lots of cheese. The whole thing will be topped with spicy honey for a true breakfast-meets-dinner mashup.
