Here's something even more disgusting. Back in the 80s when I was in college, the McDonald's in our college town was some sort of "tester" McDonald's - meaning, they'd debut new menu items there, and if the feedback was good, McD's would consider adding it to their nationwide menu permanently. I assume they had these tester restaurants in select cities all over, probably in a lot of college towns where students will eat anything (
I know that was our situation - we were broke students, and the lady from McD's was giving us free food).
Anyway, at one time, they were testing pizza, but they were like bigger versions of pizza rolls - and the roll crust was a non-sweet version of the apple pie shell! So the thing looked exactly like one of their apple pies, but it was filled with pizza sauce, and I guess some sort of cheese melted in. It was horrifying. My roommate and I took one bite, grimaced at each other across the table, and then lit up a couple of cigarettes to get the taste out of our mouths.
