I thought I'd try their steak-topping pizza, just for the hell of it. I call them up, hey I'd like the "cheesesteak" pizza... you know, the one you have on the commercials. The person on the other end of the phone acts as if I'm insulting her dog, or making fun of el presidente who she helped campaign or something.

"You -mean- our Steak Fanatic pizza."

Yeh, whatever bitch. Just make the goddamned pizza already.

It has no tomato sauce. It would have been passably good, maybe even better, except that there's only cheese and steak on it. Which is funky as all get out when you consider apparently it is blasphemy to call the thing "cheesesteak pizza". I do not recommend it.

Pizza Hut is acceptable, but only when there is nothing else available. By that, I mean you are starving out in the desert, and you stumble down an arroyo and tumble into a parking lot. With luck though, it's one of the new KFC/PH/TB combo stores, and you can actually get real food. Or maybe, it's your last meal and the warden is an asshole, offering no other menus. Damn, that's cold though.

Little Caesars used to be decent in a "at least we're not dominos" sort of way. But their $5 pizza that they're advertising at all their ghetto stores is the same generic frozen pizza you can buy at discount grocery stores for $4. And by frozen, I mean they usually don't bother to thaw them out first, either. Sad, how far you have fallen, little Nero.

Papa John's is where it's at for franchise pizza. Don't make the mistake of ordering the pan pizza though. Its only difference from the traditional crust is that they make it square, and they somehow manage to overbake the crust at the edge without hurting the rest of the pizza. I use a piece of it to hammer in finishing nails. I still have trouble believing it is wheat-flour-based, there's gotta be a space-age polymer or maybe crystallic plasteel in it somewhere. Don't get me wrong, the rest is still edible, but my calculations show you get at least 4in2 less toppings.

Pizza hut would be fine by Forbidden (4.00 / 1) #20 Sun Mar 12, 2006 at 05:45:21 PM EST
If it wasn't so fucking expensive.

Back in high school, there was a pizza place that served pizza like Pizza Hut. I picked up the pizza every day. Yeah, it tasted like shit, but for 6$ a pie (and a respectably sized pie, at that), it was still pizza.

Pizza Hut charges what, 13 for a large?

Fuck that.


You once was.

They all do though. by NoMoreNicksLeft (4.00 / 1) #21 Sun Mar 12, 2006 at 05:59:36 PM EST
Papa John's is as bad... I can't get away with much less than about $20, even if I pick it up to save tip/delivery charge. Granted, I usually get the two pizza deal, but that's still what, down to $15 for the first?

There should be a law that pizza doesn't cost more than I net in an hour, and they're getting damn close to that most of the time.
