    I’m not in California, but if Pizza Hut thinks I’m ever going to go out of my way to get one of their shitty pizzas, they’re very wrong. There are plenty of other places that deliver.

      I go out of my way to avoid them already. They changed their sauce or something like 10 years ago and it tasted awful.

        I think they removed the msg and it was game over for their pizza. Used to think of it as like premium pizza (but with heartburn) now I think of it as a more expensive version of dominoes.

        Do you know to what specific change in their recipe this is owed? I haven’t had pizza hut in 20 years, their ground meat looked like it was shaped to resemble small bones like you would for maybe dog-treats. idk, that was the last time trying their pizza.

      That’s not at all what they think. They know people will pay for delivery through DoorDash or whatever and also pay the tips and the service fees. It costs them less money and passes on the majority of what they were paying onto you so they can keep prices the same and make bigger profits.

        It’s insane to me that people are willing to pay the exorbitant delivery fees. Whenever I’ve checked, especially lately, it doubles the price even before tip (including things in my immediate area). Uber/Lyft/doordash all want to offset their costs onto both the restaurant and customer. I can’t see that it’s sustainable in the long term to do this.

          It’s not that insane. People pay for convenience. That’s all this is.

          If you’re broke as fuck then I get it but I would bet most people using DoorDash aren’t worrying about their finances.

          If you do it every day for every meal then ya you may have issues.

          Personally I’d rather just hop in my car and pick it up.

            I used to game with a lady who ordered DoorDash constantly and was also constantly complaining about the price and how they were always late and how they could never find her apartment. I didn’t get it.

      I’ve lived in California for the past 12 years and have never seen anyone I know get Pizza Hut. We have better options
