We tried pizza in a cone - and it has one clear advantage over a traditional slice

America has wholeheartedly adopted this Italian dish as a meal worthy of the American fast-food pantheon - the ubiquity of Pizza Hut, Dominos, and countless local pizzerias can attest to that.

Kono Pizza is eschewing the traditional slice and embracing a more unorthodox approach to the beloved pizza: cones.

The company, which started in Singapore, recently inked a deal with Walmart to open up franchises in the company's retail locations.

But is a pizza cone really the way to go? I decided to try out this heretical pizza method to see for myself.
