Drooling in Anticipation of this New Way to Eat Pizza-Ingredients - The Melts

Today's pizza-day, and I did the online version of an impulse-purchase ... I logged-on to Pizza Hut's site to get my usual order (a large pizza with a few toppings, and a side (formerly 'boneless chicken wings,' but inflation is "pricing me out of those" and forcing me to order 'french fries' instead).
But their homepage presented 'this banner,' and I was hooked!
(Just looking at it, I'm reminded of 'the calzone' ... I don't remember if it was 'Pizza Hut's version' or some other restaurant (Papa John's, Papa Murphy's, Domino's, Mazzio's, Crystal's (which isn't open in OKC anymore, I don't think), Hideaway Pizza, THE WEDGE)
(But I'll examine it a little more: They describe the Buffalo Chicken Melt (A Melt loaded with chicken, onion, buffalo sauce and cheese. Served with ranch and buffalo sauce for dipping. Comes with two dipping sauces; no substitutions.),
(the Chicken Bacon Parmesan Melt (A Melt loaded with chicken, bacon, creamy Alfredo sauce and cheese. Served with ranch for dipping. Comes with one dipping sauce; no substitutions.), the Meat Lover’s® Melt (A Melt loaded with pepperoni, ham, Italian sausage, pork, beef, bacon and cheese. Served with marinara for dipping. Comes with one dipping sauce; no substitutions.),
(and the Pepperoni Lover’s® Melt (A Melt loaded with pepperoni and cheese. Served with marinara for dipping. Comes with one dipping sauce; no substitutions.)
(I have to search-around for the "Product Info" for 'The Melt' itself, and--looking through the 'Special Deals'--I find "Our signature Thin ’N Crispy® crust loaded with toppings and cheese, folded over and baked to melty perfection, then sprinkled with a parmesan and oregano blend. Comes with sauce for dipping, no substitutions.")
Then I see that I've earned enough Hut Rewards points to get a FREE pizza as well, and still have enough cash to get an order of 'boneless chicken-wings.' 
(It's almost a game, seeing how much I can buy for under $20.)
What do you like in YOUR pizza-order? What pizza-restaurant does it the best?

I like pepperoni and extra cheese on my pizza. The best pizza in Lake Charles in my opinion is Little Caesars which had to close one of their stores due to Hurricane Laura in 2020.

That actually does look good.
I don't buy pizza from chain restaurants. I live in Jersey and we have the best pizza in the country. There is an independent pizza shop on practically every corner and it is all much better than Domino's, Pizza Hut, or Papa John's.

That's why I called it 'the new way to eat pizza-ingredients' and not "a new food" from Pizza Hut ... there's no danger I won't like it, it's all 'Pizza Hut pizza folded a different way' ... kinda like most Mexican food is basically 'meat & beans & vegetables in a burrito.'
