Drew Weisholtz — Mon, 28 Jan 2013 16:00:10 +0000

Your Super Bowl party will have a hard time “topping” the one Mark Evans is trying to put on. The 53-year-old retired Air Force master sergeant from Elk Grove, Illinois wants to send more than 20,000 pizzas to troops stationed in the Middle East for the Super Bowl. Keep that in mind when you get [...]

Japan Goes There With Mayo Pizza

Jeremy Taylor — Sun, 20 Jan 2013 22:30:26 +0000

America’s controversial condiment just became Japan’s newest pizza topping… Even the egg-based spread’s more ardent supporters would acknowledge that there is something about the taste, color and texture of mayo that makes it dodgy companion for some foods. Pizza is probably one of those foods. Yet in Japan (a nation often described as “mayonnaise obsessed”) Domino’s is rolling out a [...]

Man Crashes Car Into Pizzeria, Orders Pizza

Jeremy Taylor — Mon, 14 Jan 2013 15:20:50 +0000

When life gives you lemons, you make lemonade. And when life steers your car straight into a pizzeria, you order a large pie. That’s the lesson out of Lincoln, Nebraska, where recently an elderly man got his foot stuck on the accelerator of his Honda Fit and barreled straight through the front door of Valentino’s pizza restaurant. Luckily [...]

Of Course Guy Fieri's S'Mores Pizza Is Terrible

Emerald Catron — Fri, 04 Jan 2013 11:24:32 +0000

Seriously, we don't know what people were expecting when they bought a frozen Guy Fieri brand frozen S'mores pizza, but apparently it wasn't cayenne pepper. Unfortunately, that's what they got. On the bright side, the people who bought this pizza, which is available at Walmart and Sam's Club, weren't afraid to write scathing, hilarious reviews online.

No More Chuck E. Cheese

The commercials on Nickelodeon aren't going to help when the last Chuck E. Cheese in Maine closes its doors on Sunday.

Out of the blue to all of us, their only Maine location couldn't come to an agreement on lease terms. School children all over Maine are going to have to do without...or do they?

Pizza Hut Perfume Is an Actual Thing That Is Happening

Jeremy Taylor — Wed, 05 Dec 2012 22:15:33 +0000

Fact: everybody who isn’t a monster loves the smell of pizza. But that doesn’t mean that Pizza Hut should be making a pizza-scented perfume. Especially because their pizza is exempt from the “everybody loves the smell of pizza” clause. But they’re doing it anyway. It started (and should have ended) as a joke, when Pizza Hut [...]

Vending Machine Pizza?

Sharon Buck — Thu, 29 Nov 2012 12:04:56 +0000

Seriously? I think I’ve heard of just about everything until last night. I am definitely one for making quick, easy meals that are tasty but when I’m on the run, it’s kind of hard. I don’t like fast food and it’s hard to find something healthy quickly. But THIS blew me away! There is a [...]

On a Lighter Note, a Ridiculous Pizza Commercial

Emerald Catron — Tue, 06 Nov 2012 23:02:31 +0000

Let’s all just pause and think about what we really want this election day. Pizza, right? Here’s a video excerpt from comedian Vincent Gargiulo’s film ‘KNFR From 7:00 – 7:30.’ We think this is probably one of the best songs ever written about pizza. It’s certainly the best dance accompanying a song about pizza ever. [...]

Ask Obama or Romney 'Sausage or Pepperoni?' and You Get Free Pizza for Life

Mike Adams — Thu, 11 Oct 2012 08:19:37 +0000

Everyone has something they'd like to ask the candidates at the next presidential debate. But if you're brave enough to stand up in that highly televised forum and ask the age-old question “Sausage or pepperoni?”—free pizza for life shall be your reward.

Pizza Hut and its Pizza Party announced on Tuesday that they will provide a lifetime of free pizza—the option of one large pizza a week for the next 30 years, or a check for $15,600—to any attendee who asks either candidate this simple question during the live town hall format presidential debate on October 16 at Hofstra University.

Pizza Hut Gets Politically Aware with 'The Pizza Party'

Cameron Simcik — Wed, 10 Oct 2012 21:15:47 +0000

Pizza Hut has been on our semi grossed-out minds a lot recently, what with their new Kit Kat Pops and Cone Crust Pizza, among other heart attack-inducing creations. But to our surprise, the big cheeses over at the pizza chain have redeemed themselves in our books.
