The description of this Brexit pizza is brutally honest
As stockpiling of body bags, medicines and excuses continues, the UK draws ever closer to leaving the EU, either with a bad deal, or no deal at all. Certain politicians, pub owners and media outlets might have us believe that the country is on the verge of a period of greatness, but other countries are looking on with astonishment and a good deal of scorn.
When EU Flag Mafia visited Venice, they spotted this menu, and shared the joke behind it.
The world is laughing at us, not with us. Venice. When I asked the waiter what was on the brexit pizza, he said "we promise it comes with everything but it actually comes with nothing and its also expensive and very hard to digest"…. Genius!#facciamoeuropa #fbpe #brexit pic.twitter.com/ZihsddLPM2

Should actually be priced at about 44 billion euros too. https://t.co/ChIEd9wQSn

Would’ve been more symbolic if they cooked the pizza and then threw it out the door onto the street.

You can't see the small print. If more than half of your party order it, everybody at the table has to keep paying for it until 2064.

But the price should be in shillings and farthings not Euros !

Other Twitter users had similar examples of Brexit products.
There's a restaurant in Valencia beach which offers various delicious burgers, such as the exotic "46 Valentino" burger. They also offer a "Brexit burger", which is essentially a burger with absolutely nothing except meat and bun. How dull will life be in Brexit britain

While this Dutch café didn’t have a Brexit product to offer, it still managed to thumb its nose at the UK government.
Spotted a Dutch cafe in Haarlem laughing at us… pic.twitter.com/Dgj4ehQAut
