Pizza Hut Pizza Mia
I take care of most of most of my pizza needs either from my freezer (when on a budget), or from my excellent privately owned neighborhood pizza shop (if I want to splurge a little). But sometimes I like a little bit of variety, or happen to want something delivered on a Sunday (my guy is closed on Sundays). Out of the larger chains of pizza shops, Pizza Hut has been my favorite for as long as I can remember, and I almost always enjoy their goods. Their marinara sauce is the best I’ve ever had (anywhere!), and I always order an extra cup on the side for dipping crusts.
Naturally I became pretty interested when they started running this three medium sized Pizza Mia pizzas for $5 each special ($7 if ordered individually). That is a really great deal, right? Well ladies and gentlemen, my excitement quickly transformed into dismay; these things are horrible. I thought giving them the special ‘Pizza Mia’ moniker was just a simple marketing gimmick, but no. Giving Pizza Mia’s their own name was just a way to pawn off cheap, sparsely topped, cruddy crusted impostors of your real product, without giving your usual ‘good stuff’ a bad name. These are not, I repeat not, your regular medium Pizza Hut pizzas. Their was barely enough cheese to cover the pie, I’ve gotten more pepperonis on a personal pan before, and the sauce was dry and pasty.
I like to try to keep negative reviews short, because I’m a positive person and do not like tearing things down. But I do like warning my readers when a bad product, that has the chance to be ordered by the millions, is floating around the market place so you guys can avoid it. And with that, I say, please avoid the Pizza Mia. Spend a few extra bucks, and get the real deal.

Good lord — thanks! I would have tried them, but now I’ll pass.

Glad I could offer some useful advice… keep coming back; who knows? I might do it again

Remember those $1 Totinos pizzas at wal-mart that didn’t fill you up that made you think you found a nugget of consumer gold? I concur with the consumers corner here saying that these are an inferior product.
Boboli bread, a handful of fermented cow juice, and the dried up summer sausage you found that your uncle gave you for chrismas would be better on a pizza.

I just got this pizza and it really does SUCK. Pizza hut is my favorite pizza. This crap tastes like the school lunch pizza we got on fridays, actually it’s worse. I’ll stick to domino’s 555.
