Processed?
Is Pizza Hut standard, normal pizza? Or is it processed, a la McDonalds? -UK-Logician-2006 22:58, 8 March 2006 (UTC)

202.52.34.120 00:01, 27 March 2006 (UTC) - Its rehydronated in store using a donkey semen extract. Dominoes uses frozen bases. Is there any way that the fact that Pizza Hut is both disgusting and nutritionally null can be mentioned?


 * Thats impossible. If its nutritionally null its obviously delicious! HarveyB 22:58, 8 March 2006 (UTC)

far too salty and usually made wrong


 * It is made for you at the restaurant, mcds is a dump and i cant believe the gov are letting them run the shatholes of mc in this country. Lenny 13:42, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

Pizza Hut dough is frozen upon delivery to the stores and then thawed out and used. I used to work there so I know. Darkie


 * If I remember correctly, hand-tossed, personal pan, and breadstick dough arrives frozen, and then is put in a proofer so it can thaw and rise. Pan dough is hand-made. But yes, it's "standard, normal pizza." The ingredients are all the real thing. Just seems that some people who work there have bad-hand eye coordination or are rushing, because the pizzas do sometimes get kinda thrown together. Depends on who's making it. Anyway, it's real pizza. Not NYC pizzeria pizza, but it's better than frozen store-bought. 69.175.50.2 18:21, 9 November 2006 (UTC)

Not all Pizza Huts use frozen dough, at least not here in Canada. We make our dough fresh daily. We have had the option in the past to purchase frozen dough products to meet huge orders (school personal pan lunchs) but it doesnt give the same effect. Also, we do not fry the base first, there is just oil in the bottom of the pan to assist with cooking the dough thoroughly for our thicker crusts.

I recall a controversy surrounding the use of silicone (was it polymethylsiloxane?)as an anti-foaming agent in the pizza cheese, in order that the pizza be able to be cooked more rapidly without huge bubbles causing burning (US patent 4894245). One hopes this is no longer the case, but can someone research it and see if it really once was? Zaphraud 06:46, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

ROHA vandal
Though an extreme violation of WP:POINT without discussion&mdash;and, therefore, vandalism&mdash;this article is in need of POV and cruft cleanup. Radio Kirk   talk to me  13:25, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

Vouchers and free products
In Australia every week the big three Pizza hut, dominos and pizza haven have vouchers delivered via junkmail for reduced cost pizzas. Also for at least five years now, about once per year a value deal is offered with a free film, dvd or at the moment ea pc games. Is any of this similar to another country as it cold be included.Atirage 14:21, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

Jukeboxes
Someone should mention the placement of jukeboxes in Pizza Hut, as well as how annoying they are. --Sinewaves23 12:05, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

What about the slogan "Pizza Hut and nothing but" ?? --65.208.210.97 18:45, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

Playstation Demos
Anyone remember the Playstation video game demos they gave out a long time ago? NA Magus 14:08, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

Four Bases
The article says that there are now only four kinds of base in the UK... and then goes on to list the six bases. Explanation? 80.193.176.50 19:53, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

Largest Store? What proof?
Pizza Hut and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Little_Caesars both say they are the largest. We need to clean BOTH up, as only one can be. Will also post this msg at LC's section.+

Demoltion Man
From the TacoBell page -

The movie Demolition Man has several references to Taco Bell as being the only restaurant franchise in the future after the "franchise wars." Presumably there are different levels of Taco Bell restaurants, but "all restaurants are Taco Bell." A portion of the film is set against Taco Bell's corporate headquarters in Irvine, California.

In the German-language dub of the movie, all references to Taco Bell were changed to references to Yum! sister brand Pizza Hut; scenes displaying the Taco Bell logo or signs were either replaced or digitally edited to show a Pizza Hut logo instead. The most likely reason for this change is a cultural difference; in German-speaking countries, Taco Bell is hardly well-known or established, meaning that few viewers would understand the joke about Taco Bell, a modern-day fast-food chain, becoming the high-class exclusive restaurant of the future. For the purposes of the movie's joke, Pizza Hut was apparently chosen as a more representative well-known fast-food chain for the target demographic.

In the Australian release of Demolition Man references were changed to Pizza Hut. A deep irony now exists in that Pizza Hut lost the "restuarant wars" in Australia and is now largely takeout only.


 * In the UK, it's still Taco Bell... despite Taco Bell not existing here. I got the joke anyway though... we get plenty of American culture through TV. 92.5.113.238 (talk) 13:53, 31 May 2008 (UTC)

History
Pizza Hut has a long, detailed history that involves more that just the "putt putt to the Pizza Hut" commercials. There was a long struggle with Shakey's to be the dominant pizza chain throughout the 1960s, and the entire Wichita story is far richer and more varied than appears here. In short, the section needs work to make this article more than the advertisement for Pizza Hut that it appears to be. StudierMalMarburg 15:17, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Not real familiat with Pizza Hut's history myself, but you seem to be well versed in the area. Care to take a shot at expanding it? - Mike 19:39, 21 September 2006 (UTC)

Giza
There is a Pizza Hut across the road from the Great Pyramids at Giza. User:Pedant 06:10, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Would probably be a good addition to the trivia section. I'm going to add it, thanks. - Mike 18:50, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

Pizza Huts in PA
A little while back ('bout a year ago), Pizza Hut was disapearing in Pennsylvania. Anyone know anything of this? --66.218.18.122 02:42, 25 September 2006 (UTC)


 * For a very long time pert' near everybody I hear mentioning Pizza Hut uses the term "Pizza slut." I don't do that because Mom would punish me in some horrid manner that may or may not leave permanent scarring to my tender body and/or mind/psyche. I do like Pizza Hut's pizza except when the meat used is too greasy and my tummy aches after engorging myself upon the grease-laden delicacy.68.13.191.153 20:18, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

I can confirm both phenomena... Pizza Huts closing in PA and the slang term..

Pinaka-Pizza?
I read the article and under the heading "ISRAEL" there was this line: "There are two popular slogans which are:   * Pinaka-pizza     * Great pizza under one roof"

I'm talking about the first slogan: Pinaka-pizza. Is that the slogan in Israel? I live in the Philippines and "Pinaka-Pizza" is a popular slogan or tag line used here by Pizza Hut... 'Pinaka-" in the Tagalog/Filipino language is a prefix to indicate a superlative.  I don't know, maybe that slogan may also mean something in Israel that I'm not aware of.... --ChrisTina 06 02:16, 24 November 2006 (UTC) AFAIK, this slogan was never used in Israel. I live there and haven't heard it. 132.68.244.9 22:44, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

Since the advert tag is still up...
I'm going to edit tone, but try to hold on to content. Let me know if I make any glaring mistakes, I appreciate feedback. Resonanteye 21:25, 27 November 2006 (UTC)
