Pizza Hut Thinks We Should Eat Pasta With Our Fingers
By Laura Northrup on May 21, 2012 10:30 AM

Jeff and his wife were traveling, and had a hankering for one of Pizza Hut's pasta dishes. They ordered up some starch-laden caloriffic goodness from The Hut's website, then followed up with a phone call to say, "hey, we're staying in a motel, can you send along some plastic forks?" This was evidently too much for the local Pizza Hut to handle. Which is kind of odd, considering that they deliver food and all. More »

Political Commentary On A Pizza Hut Sign?
By Chris Morran on November 29, 2011 10:15 AM

As you've probably heard, the longstanding rule that classifies 1/8 cup of tomato paste as a serving of vegetables in kids' school lunches — thus allowing a slice of pizza to qualify as a serving of veggies — was set to be changed, but political maneuvering recently scuttled that change. And not everyone is thrilled with that. More »

There is no national or international governing body that keeps track of how big a pizza is supposed to be. This is probably just as well, but Todd was still disappointed when he ordered a "Large" pizza from Pizza Hut and received a 13" diameter pie that left his party of three hungry. More »

Pizza Hut Cares, Offers Gift Card When You Misunderstand Survey

This is a story of a small thing going wrong during a pizza order, and a relatively small gesture from the company to make things better. No, it's not a large, earth-shattering problem. Jay took a survey on the Pizza Hut web site, and wasn't entered in the drawing that enticed him to take the survey in the first place. Why was that, he wondered? So he used some Consumerist resources and got on the phone. More »

Almost a year ago, our survey-loving siblings at Consumer Reports asked several thousand readers to rate burgers from 18 burger chains and to no one's surprise, McDonald's came in dead last. Not satisfied with merely finding the best and worst beef-on-a-bun, CR decided to go for the super-sized option, rating 53 restaurants in five categories to find which ones provide the best food, service and value to customers.

Pizza Hut Put Kibosh On The Amazing Salad Towers Of China

Our post last week about "How To Game The Salad Bar" reminded commenter power lurker of the Chinese way of playing the game at Pizza Hut. See, in America when you tell people their salad bar is limited to one plate, they shrug because no American eats salad. But in China in the mid to late 2000's, they turned into a competition to see who can create the tallest and most elaborate salad tower. More »
The Worst Pizza Hut Ever Is Right Around The Block

CJ and his family have tolerated subpar service from a local Pizza Hut for years because of the convenience: this Pizza Hut is just a three-minute drive away from their house. Well, placing orders from this outlet should be convenient in theory, but his last delivery order was missing the ordered Que Papa potato bites, and somehow took much too long to show up, nearly everyone in the store claims to be a manager, and the delivery person took all of the cash CJ's son handed him instead of giving some change. Yet the story actually gets worse from there. More »

Apparently, at one Nebraska Pizza Hut, complaining about a botched order makes you a bitch. When one customer called to complain about her order, she received a credit for free pizza. That pizza arrived with a special message on the receipt: "CAREFUL THIS GAL IS A BITCH." She chose not to eat the pizza that came with that message, afraid it had been tampered with.More »
