Sign in to disble this ad
Any one catch those Pizza Hut commercials where they "go" to a resturant in Rome and serve unknowing patrons Pizza Hut lasagna?
While consuming the food, the patrons are complimenting the food and the one that pisses me off the most is "this is as good as my moms".
After they're done, they're told by the head chef that the food they ate was from PH and they all applaud.
What a load of crap. Every time I see that commerical, I feel like driving to my local PH, asking for the manager and punching him/her right in the face.
/end rant! |

I have the same feeling as well, thought not that theirs is better than my Mums, just having worked for PH (in customer relations) I know what horrors the 15 y/old on min wage in the kitchen can conjour up - even with the best of ingredients.

"Uncle Giuseppe had just come over from Sicily. So we took him to the Olive Garden."
If uncle Giuseppe was really Sicilian they'd all be marked for death by now. |

BUT, when it first came out they said it had "100% real cheese"
I dont know when they changed it, but surely their ad department wouldn't be that foolish... |

At least those folks were being treated to a free meal at a fancy place, of course they are not going to rag on the coffee.

Also, the second the chef annoucned that he hadn't done any cooking, I'd be informing him that I planned to not do any paying.

I think he'd trash that little Italian bistro and shove that Pizza Hut trash up someone's pooper if he was still here today.
