Ed Note: Probably something you would never see me eating or reviewing, since I try to stay away from the big cardboard pizza chains, but since @burgerdogboy sent it in, it was well worth printing!
Tooling around somewhere in East J@@@@, or maybe it was Bumf####, Kansas late one night, I pulled into the local burg in search of the local pizza. No such luck. But man, it’s DINNER TIME. Oh, who am I kidding, I don’t eat by the clock! Wait, it could have been Eastern Colorado, I had been food-deprived for a couple hours, so my confusion is understandable. In any case, all to be found was a Pizza Hut, so I decided to try the “Big Italy”, which they have been spending money promoting lately. The “Big Italy” is almost ‘two feet’ of pizza, 18 slices, and promises “Italian spices baked right into Pizza Hut’s signature ‘hand-tossed’ crust.
I am starting to notice that both the Hut and KFC are taking a lesson from sister company Taco Bell’s playbook: take 5 or 6 core ingredients, make them into a different shape, call them something else, and charge a different price point. The appearance of a wide variety menu with no R &D costs.
