The guys over at Epic Meal Time are still at it, and their most recent creation comes to us in the form of Chinese pizza. This [egg roll-stuffed pizza](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/meat-pie-crust-pizza) is the result of an argument over whether pizza or Chinese food makes for better leftovers.

The boys of EMT decided to get extra creative with this one by making three separate Chinese food-filled pizzas. They stuffed egg rolls into the pizza dough, then added [noodles, rice, meat](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spaghetti-and-meatballs-pizza) and sauces on top. The cooking show follows the same iconic Epic Meal Time format: lots of bacon strips, lots of Jack Daniels and Muscles Glasses doing his thing.

Unfortunately, there were no leftovers in the video, so it’s still up for debate on which fast food is superior.
