You’ll see all kinds of things on festive tables but British supermarket chain  has gone a step further in the quest to make Christmas ultra convenient: they’ve introduced a new variety of ready made pizza specifically for the holiday season.

Christmas dinner and pizza purists alike look away now: ready-made Christmas Dinner-flavoured pizza will be on sale from December 7.

Described as a “festive feast with none of the fuss,” Asda’s is a Christmas vision, complete with chicken, roast potatoes and Brussels sprouts, drizzled with Cranberry sauce. 

While those with an aversion to cooking anything for longer than 20 minutes will be particularly excited by this development, predictably, it’s generated comment.
Abomination, or positive step towards an easier Christmas meals? Less time toiling over a turkey means more time spent with friends and family, but whether chicken and cranberry sauce truly belong on a pizza is still up for debate. 

Of course, this isn't the first time pizza toppings have been placed under considerable scrutiny. Is a roast dinner pizza really any more eyebrow-raising than ?
