Wow, that was unexpected.

Pasta Hut

moloyebu · 06-10-2008, 07:56

Indeed, is it some kind of joke or summit?

cam · 06-10-2008, 07:58

That was my first reaction too, but no, it's real

Rotuy · 06-10-2008, 07:58

:s So do they still do pizza?

moloyebu · 06-10-2008, 08:00

Looks like they will be staying Pizza Hut. I voted Pasta Hut just for the weirdness of it all. I wonder what brought it on, thats gonna be an expensive rebrand job I would think. Pizza Hut is so established aswell.

I smell a Marketing ploy, it'll be back to pizza hut by christmas

Mik · 06-10-2008, 08:05

rules - its on temp though.

datahound · 06-10-2008, 08:10

Great idea.

Figures are probably telling them pasta sells.

Market is awash with pizza cos.

Refresh your brand and step sideways in the market.

Genius.

Mik · 06-10-2008, 08:24

also obese cunts eat more pizza.

Also if you think 'pizza' you think of chavvy outlets

d*d · 06-10-2008, 08:25

Pizza hut own 'Bella patsa' too, they keep pizza hut deliberately low end

That makes this slightly stranger, but yeah, think Mik is on the right lines

ah the good ole days.

bazzle · 06-10-2008, 10:44

I very much doubt that's a complete rebrand. There's no reason why they can't have pizza huts and pasta huts without damaging the brand.

I hope they come to the UK though, I'm a pasta nut myself.

Scientists will slap a "gives you cancer" sticker on pasta fairly soon. In 20 years time we'll be eating a paste produced from nothing but cod liver oil.

steveb · 06-10-2008, 11:04

When the body digests pasta, it turns mostly into sugars, so that can be unhealthy for a start. That said, I am about to devour a plateful of homemade lasagne.

If Pizza Hut turns into Pasta Hut, it will immediately be dubbed Paska Hut in Finland. Paska is the word for shit in Finnish.

VamBoom · 06-10-2008, 13:16

either way, it will still give you the shits.

Cod liver oil gives you cancer.

Rotuy · 07-10-2008, 04:09

fuck.

Karikaru · 07-10-2008, 04:50

Cure cancer, then we can eat whatever the hell we want. I agree that it would be a smart move. How many fast food pasta places are there vs. pizza places? It would definitely help carve out a little niche in the fast food market for them.
