One crazy Brooklyn man made a box out of pizza FOR CARRYING PIZZA

Since time immemorial, man has wandered the planet in search of a vessel for distributing pizza that could — somehow — also be made of pizza.

On Friday, that search finally ended — unsurprisingly, it ended in Brooklyn. BEHOLD!

Yes, that is a pizza inside of a box made of pizza. Let that sink in for a moment.

The monstrosity was birthed by a pizzeria in Brooklyn's most painfully hip neighborhood, Williamsburg, at a shop named Vinnie's Pizzeria.

According to a report from beloved New York-area news station PIX 11, the pizza box itself costs $40 on top of the price of the pizza inside. Here's another look at it, care of PIX 11:

"I get a little upset when customers ask for a box, and they sit down and eat the pizza, and then they throw away the box right away," Vinnie's Pizzeria owner Sean Berthiaume told PIX 11. "Maybe I could just make it a pizza that they could eat!"

This is Sean, potential Pizza Villain and father of the pizza box, no doubt laughing maniacally in his pizza-born madness:

This isn't Sean's first spin in the Pizza Spotlight — his shop was already featured in national news stories when he created a pizza with pizza as a topping. Yes, really. Here's a shot from his appearance on "Jimmy Kimmel Live!":

But Vinnie's is more than just a gimmick shop. Two Tech Insider Brooklynites who live near Vinnie's both attested to it being a quality pizza shop.

But you should decide for yourself, of course — check out the video from PIX 11 to see even more of the pizza box made of pizza if you dare:
