I would advocate adding some herbs for flavor, making fresh dough and leaving out whatever they put in that causes the explosive diarrhea. But what do I know, I’m not from Italy.
curry?
Great now Pizza Hut can smell like the international dorms..
One more reason to go elsewhere.
Better this than Tim Curry.
They don’t drench the dough in grease, worked for them for sever years in my youth, but they do have to grease the pan for pan pizza which is what 90% of the people order, because if they don’t you’d never get the stuff out of the pan.
Order a crust other than pan and you won’t have the issue.
Papa John’s does not have a Pan Pizza equivalent, nor do most other chains. If you order the hand tossed or thin, which is what most other pizza is it will not have the issue you don’t like.
Apples and Oranges trying to compare these 2 different types of pizza.
I tend to buy local, to support the local business and mostly grinders.
So.....Pizza Hut has decided to curry favor with those who favor curry.
Why should I travel the world when the world is already here?
I stopped eating at Pizza Hut when I found out that they use something called “textured vegetable protein.” I want my pizza to be made with real meat and cheese.
Same here. I support the local pizza/grinder places because they work hard to get your business.
Interesting. And to think that for 30 years Pizza Hut has done nothing to make me aware of the difference & alternative, a problem which introducing a paprika & curry flavor won’t correct.
a hallmark of chemically engineered food.
All the pizza chains have gotten so competitive, they have completely bastardized what a good Italian pizza used to be.
One of the chains around here actually had the nerve to advertise "parmesan-inspired cheese". They just don't get it. Around here, they're fighting each other for customers while Panera, Chipolte, and DiBella's have lines stretching outside their doors at lunch time.
Papa Murphy’s bake at home pizzas are excellent. Their staff is of Chick Fil-A caliber, too.
Are you trying to curry favor?
They should add eels to that too. I’m sure that will boost their sales.
Three big reasons that Pizza Hut sales have been in decline is first, that they jam a huge amount of salt into their pizzas, likely in an effort to sell soft drinks.
Domino’s is lowest, with 194mg in one of their offerings.
Pizza hut’s lowest starts at 534mg, and they top out at 875mg, which is almost inedible to anyone who doesn’t normally have a very high sodium diet. They could do that in the 1970s, but since then everybody else has been cutting back on their added salt, resulting in a cultural taste change.
The second reason is that they do not make proper New York style pizzas with risen crust, instead going for “pre-fab” crusts that compare more closely with cardboard.
The third reason is that they keep pushing for a more upscale market, but with a downscale product. They were one of the first to try to boost their bottom line with gimmick foods instead of focusing on their core product.
The future does not look bright for Pizza Hut. Their competition is too good, and they would need to change their whole business concept to catch up. This can take decades to do right.
If people knew what a real Italian pizza tasted like, they’d never buy pizza hut again.. and also want to slap the cooks at pizza hut.
Our local wood-fired pizza pub makes excellent pizzas that are light and delicious, so you don't immediately regret eating there, unlike Pizza Hut. Plus they have a terrific selection of craft beer. We live in the golden age of beer and pizza, why buy from Pizza Hut?
