Pizza Hut Just Launched 4 New Pizzas and They Look Amazing

Pizza Hut has always been a trendsetter. From its iconic lampshades to its old-school pizza and salad buffet, it might actually be true that no one can out pizza the hut. We know from its heyday in the ‘90s and early ‘00s that Pizza Hut loves getting creative with new menu items—who else could have thought of the Dippin’ Strips Pizza? And it’s one of the only national chains to offer regional styles of pizza nationwide. It’s offered the New York-style Big New Yorker, Detroit-style, and even a Chicago-style deep-dish pizza at select restaurants. Now, Pizza Hut is releasing a new style of pizza for the first time ever: Tavern style.

We’re not sure what’s in the air this week, but some brands woke up and chose violence. First, Colonel Sanders and little pigtailed Wendy began an all-out battle over sauce-covered chicken nugget supremacy. And, now, Papa Johns has decided it wants to be the one to officially out pizza the hut.

When you think of American pizza chains, a few big names probably come to mind. Domino's and Pizza Hut are a familiar site in practically every U.S. city, and names like Little Caesars and Papa John's are right up there as well. You would probably assume that one of these giants is the biggest pizza chain in America, but you'd be wrong about that. The pizza chain with the most locations in the U.S. is Hunt Brothers Pizza, yet despite its dominant position, there's a strong chance you've never even heard of it.

Its century of burger service is undoubtedly impressive, but you know what they say about being first — it's the worst. Fittingly, in our ranking of 18 popular fast food hamburgers, Harold and Kumar's munchie-fueled road trip destination took the lowest spot.

Sure, chicken nuggets and fries are important, but a food joint should really be measured by who has the best fast food burger. We’re talking hamburgers, cheeseburgers, and anything else with buns, beef patties and all the other usual suspects. Chicken won’t be listed here because, well, those are technically sandwiches.
