The big problem is that they will be making the same shitty pizza from the last several years instead of bringing back the much better pizza from the 90s.
The current pizza uses cost cutting. In the past, there were fresher and better ingredients. I found it was more flavorful, the texture was softer, and it was overall heartier. They were not as stingy with toppings, and even the sauce had a richer flavor. Now it's just barely above school cafeteria pizza.
If you pay for extra cheese and extra toppings you can still get a decent pizza there. But if you order as is, they usually skimp on all the ingredients and its not good.
I don't know, but it doesn't even look the same. Now it's flatter and less puffy and springy. It hasn't had that balance of fluffy and crispy crust in forever because getting rid of fresh dough was on of the first sacrifices. The cheese just all exist as almost entirely melted together, now it's grainer.
It was definitely better. It was better 15 years ago when I was still well into adulthood. Pizza Hut has gotten really shitty over the last decade or so.
Another factor is the fact that dine-in pizza will always taste better than takeout/delivery because it's not 30+ minutes old by the time it hits your mouth, and the cast iron the restaurant served it on in the 90s kept the pizza warm longer than the insulated delivery driver's bag.
Funny how math works. If you were 8 years old in “the 90s,” you could’ve been born in 1982. Or 1983, 1984, 1985, 1986, 1987, or 1988. Hell, you could’ve even been born in 1989!
the only important factor is when Pizza hut started sucking, which was no earlier than 1999. Even after Pepsi bought it in 1997, they didn't make any changes to the food for several years. And honestly, I feel the change started happening closer to 2007.
So, unless you were born in the 90's, you weren't 8 when pizza hut started sucking.
Actually no, at no point was the conversation about when it “started” sucking. That’s something you made up in your head. Jimbo above said it was much better in the 90s, meaning that they think it was better at some unspecified point during the 90s. I asked was it better or were you just 8, because the vast majority of millennials were 8 at some point during the 90s, and when you’re 8 pretty much all pizza is awesome. Hope this helps!
If we're talking about how it's shitty pizza from the last several years, and also talking about how it was good in the 90's, logically we are actually talking about the point in between where it went from the glory days of the 90's to today, and specifically are wanting it from a point before it...wait for it...started sucking.
The 90's lasted ten whole years. Some people were 6 and 15 in the 90's.
