Tesco pizza ad is stuff of nightmares. The eyes! The eyes!
It’s enough to make you lose your appetite. A Tesco ad campaign for homemade pizza features a bloke so terrifying you wouldn’t want to meet him wielding a knife in your kitchen or anywhere else.
The Photographer, the ad company AND Tesco all approved this man's expression in their advert. All of them. pic.twitter.com/yr28LNcYgI

Twitter pulled its collective duvet over its head and tried not to think about it.

@heavy_flames @ellaboheme What sort of a maniac puts what looks like toasted sliced almonds on a pizza anyway?

@PhotoSonny @heavy_flames I think that's dried flakes of his previous victim.

@photosonny, who spotted the original ad, suggested some alternative wording.
Tesco, I have some alternate copy for your advert:
CHOICE.
My pizza and my fist.
Eat both or neither, you little shit.— Sonny Malhotra (@PhotoSonny) January 9, 2017

Don’t worry kids, it’s only the pizza he is slicing into tiny little bits. Not you.
