I'm not in California, but if Pizza Hut thinks I'm ever going to go out of my way to get one of their shitty pizzas, they're very wrong. There are plenty of other places that deliver.
I go out of my way to avoid them already. They changed their sauce or something like 10 years ago and it tasted awful.
I’ve found it’s highly variable by location and how much of a fuck the franchisee/owner cares.
I think they removed the msg and it was game over for their pizza. Used to think of it as like premium pizza (but with heartburn) now I think of it as a more expensive version of dominoes.
Do you know to what specific change in their recipe this is owed? I haven't had pizza hut in 20 years, their ground meat looked like it was shaped to resemble small bones like you would for maybe dog-treats. idk, that was the last time trying their pizza.
That’s not at all what they think. They know people will pay for delivery through DoorDash or whatever and also pay the tips and the service fees. It costs them less money and passes on the majority of what they were paying onto you so they can keep prices the same and make bigger profits.
It's insane to me that people are willing to pay the exorbitant delivery fees. Whenever I've checked, especially lately, it doubles the price even before tip (including things in my immediate area). Uber/Lyft/doordash all want to offset their costs onto both the restaurant and customer. I can't see that it's sustainable in the long term to do this.
It’s not that insane. People pay for convenience. That’s all this is.
If you’re broke as fuck then I get it but I would bet most people using DoorDash aren’t worrying about their finances.
If you do it every day for every meal then ya you may have issues.
Personally I’d rather just hop in my car and pick it up.
I used to game with a lady who ordered DoorDash constantly and was also constantly complaining about the price and how they were always late and how they could never find her apartment. I didn't get it.
Genuinely surprised pizza hutt still exists tbh. They were never good and now you can make better pizza at home from the frozen foods aisle at weis.
80s Pizza Hut personal pan pizza was the greatest dining experience available to anyone under the age of 12. You could earn one by reading books, or pretending to read them.

I make homemade pizza at least once a week, but your ideas seem... creative
What day of the week do you usually make your homemade pizzas?
Usually the day when I can't think of something for dinner, I suggest pizza to my wife. She's yet to say no.
So generally once a week you can't think of something for dinner?
I'm just curious, what would happen if you planned out dinner for the entire month ahead of time? would you stop eating pizza or would you schedule the pizza dinners on a weekly basis?
Once a week sounds about right for being out of ideas. I work a bit of an odd job where I'm gone for 24h at a time and after a work cycle I get 9 days off, so what day of the week isn't as relevant for me.
Pizza is a bit of a treat, and it's fairly lazy to make (I just make a quick dough and throw tomatoes on the boil, then wait until it's time to assemble toppings).
If we planned out, I suppose we'd have it something like every other week. I see no reason not to, maybe do something slightly more healthy by adding some salad on the side.
That deep dish is not something you duplicate at home with frozen options. I'm with you guys but let's be realistic.
I’ve lived in California for the past 12 years and have never seen anyone I know get Pizza Hut. We have better options
If you read around this thread you’ll see that lots of Californians ordering it specifically because of stuffed crust. It’s weird.
Ya can’t shine shit…
lol I’ve always said that you can’t polish a turd lol lol
Completely agree with you.
