    For some reason the image of that cracks me up.
    If you thought that was funny, you should've seen my face when it happened. The poster of Home Alone springs to mind.

    hell the 99p pizzas form farm foods taste nicer than pizza huts.




    -a rant i know, but i could have been smarmier and used a "pizza hut?, more like pizza'-crap! amirite!" type line, i decided against it.

    agreed.

    I remember phoning up for a pizza last year with my mate and this woman answered the phone and I swear she had the squeakiest voice I'd ever heard. Gary spoke to her for about 5 minutes but had to pass the phone over because he was pissing himself laughing...as soon as she spoke to me I couldn't help it, trying to stifle it but I was laughing so hard my stomach was hurting and tears were streaming down my face...I was trying really hard to read the credit card number to her but every time she repeated the numbers back to me I laughed even harder...it was insane...we almost thought she wouldn't send the pizzas to us because we might have been pranking her - but they arrived. Even she started laughing after a while on the phone with us, thankfully a more palatable laugh than her speaking voice...but goddamn that was so funny.

    The advert with the bouncing coloured balls going down a street is wicked! I love that advert! It's just for a television though, not being green...

    As for Pizza Hut, can't remember the last time I went to one. I'm not sure if there's one near the cinema I go to ... what other brands of Pizza establishment are there? I'm not sure if it was one or not, had a pizza at whatever the place was anyway and it was quite nice - but I've no idea what brand it was.

    I do remember going to a Pizza Hut in Manchester or somewhere like that once when I was about six years old and went to the bogs and there was a toilet that was CHOCK FULL of turds and sh*t water ... PROPER rank and I've never forgotten that.

    Anyway - as for Pizza as take out, we used to use the nearby Dominos at Uni. LUSH alright, their meat feast was wicked-awesome. I do remember one night they didn't try very hard to knock on the door and we didn't get our order, so a housemate drunkenly had a fifteen minute rant with the manager and we got our food for free the next day. Caught the convo on camera, it was hilarious.

The pizza is a New York style with big slices and the crust is light, flavorable, and not greasy.
    I've tried the bacon mac 'n cheese,and the creamy chicken alfredo and they were both awful.I haven't tried the meaty marinara yet.But if it's anything like the other two I've tried,then I'll pass.

    Back in the 70s a person was hard pressed to find a Pizza Hut anywhere in NYC all the pizza stores were Italian. From my recollection you had to go out to the suburbs in Jersey or Long Island to find one of those Hut things. The one time I did try it, the pizza reminded me of supermarket frozen pizza and that's what it is basically. When I go out late to get beers, say 2 or 3 am, I usually see the Domino's tractor trailer parked in front of the joint around the corner from me delivering all the frozen ingredients for their slop. What gets me the most is how they handle extra cheese. Whenever I ask for it I never see it. With the Italian joints I see it. Domino's et. al. are like the McDonald's of pizza. Every ingredient is carefully measured and rationed to maximize profit as per the employee manual or training seminar. Pathetic.

    Here's that place I was referring to earlier. Check the menu, too. Btw, the art work at the bottom of the page is what is painted on the side of the building. Notice the Twin Towers.

    While I can't speak for the Brit Pizza Hut, I'll only say that I really enjoy the American Pizza Hut pizzas. They're not real pizzas and shouldn't be thought of as such, but I really do like them small personal pan pizzas and those frikkin' bread sticks

    As far as this name change...it's bull ****

    Funny you should say this but the mom and pop place I go to (which do traditional Italian as well as popular) make pizzas where if you break a slice off, the cheese stretches until you're on the other side of the room before it snaps (OK, that was an exaggeration but you know what I'm getting at ).

    I used to work at a pizza hut when I was a teenager. It's not healthy by any means....but I do enjoy it. Depending on how and who prepares it, if you know what I mean.

    Pizza Huts around here have several different food businesses. Pizza Hut, Wing Street, and now this Tuscani Pizza thing....
