Am so annoyed they've stopped doing them. I can see that some people like pasta, but surely the customers they'll lose (ie me) by stopping pizza outweigh the ones they'll gain from switching to pasta. I suppose I'll have to go to Pizza Express now. They're OK, but I'll miss the Deep Pans! I mean, who wants to go to a 'Pasta Buffet'. Yuk. I used to love Pizza Hut pizzas!

Now it's happening again, could it be another joke or are they serious this time? I bet their lawyers hate this game.

Then saw the ad on tv today and immediately thought "blogstorm, it's true!" and came straight here to check the comments. So it's worked both ways :P Talk about advertising, I read this post 2 days ago when it was published but didn’t really look into it.

This is a pure example of advertising at it's original and best form. For somebody who would never really check out a Pizza Hut advertisement, I had to click on the voting tab straight away, eager to see the results..if any were to be shown. And of course Pizza Hut would always be rising above Pasta Hut. If every person were to click on 'Pasta Hut', I promise you Pizza Hut would always come out on top on this online voting ad, it's just pure brilliance in advertising... Amazing, and in all honesty now when i walk past a Pizza Hut, this will definitely remind me of Pasta! Just a shame I hate and as many are not really drawn to pasta or their Pizzas! I would have gone with something more original tha Pasta. So although there advertising has been a huge success, their main flaw is the food, and as it is a food place..well...I'm sure sales are not going to rocket.
