Breaking the rules without breaking the rules.

Perhaps the best recipe for fun is a mix of being smart, being cheap, and being bored. Posted today is a few pictures from Pizza Hut China; wherein customers have turned taking advantage of Pizza Hut’s “one trip to the salad bar” policy into a science. I’m not exaggerating, I’ll actually show you the mathematical formulas used to create salads that go about 2 feet (half a meter?) high.

There’s a bit of social commentary to be found here; cause this really is one of those things you’ll only see in China. When you mix serious math nerds with no money and plenty of time this is what you get; an outcome that clearly breaks the rules, without technically breaking them (cause its still all on one plate; from one trip). Perhaps sheds light on a facet of Chinese rebelliousness, which always tends to be mischievous rather than outright conflicting; bending rather than breaking.

So you want to create your own gigantic salad to impress the date you brought to Pizza Hut with your charm and creativity (and save a few bucks in the process)? Read on fellow nerd, and bask in the glow of greasy greatness.
