Pizza Hut Turns 50

Pizza Hut is not what it used to be. Growing up, it was my 2nd favorite, only following a local pizzaria. Was fortunate to be able to make my own pizzas at the Hut when I worked there in the early eighties. Then something happened. The quality I was used to evaporated when they did away with the manual ovens and started using those chain driven automatic ones. Sure, sometimes a pizza would get a little extra crispy the old way, but it still tasted great! Not any more.
I will occasionally get a pizza from them, but it is becoming more and more seldom as I search for another excellent thin and crispy pizza provider. I'm to the point where I prefer DiGiorno's to Pizza Hut. :-(

I'm in New Mexico and the closest Mom-n-Pop pizza I can find comes fresh from my own oven! (after much trial and error)
YUM

@ worldcupfever: Have you ever been to Wyoming? North Dakota? Nebraska? Idaho? New Mexico? Yeah, I just think it's a little presumptive to assume that everywhere is within driving distance of a good mom & pop pizza shop. Here in Wyoming, there's a couple of "cities" - 50,000 people; about 10 or so "small towns" - between 10,000 and 40,000 people, and lots of tiny towns. "A town or two over" could mean 150 miles. So no, there isn't always easy access. I live in the largest city in WY - Casper, and only in the past year or so have 3 or 4 "independent" pizza shops opened. They are good, but they aren't cheap.

Pappa John's is better than Pizza Hut!

Good lord. The debate of Pizza Hut vs. Papa John's just makes me cry. I don't think there's a point on the continental US map that's not within driving distance of a good mom & pop pizza shop. The reason Papa John gives you garlic butter & pepperoncini is to cover up for their terrible pizza, and Pizza Hut is no better. What it comes down to is what Adam wrote in the open: the biggest deal isn't that chain pizza generally sucks, it's the utter bastardization of one of the most wonderful culinary treats known to man.
