2020 has unexpectedly given us time to look back at things we miss from childhood, and Pizza Hut as it used to be is one of them.
Yes, Pizza Hut is very much is still in existence. However, in decades past, it was a sit-down restaurant that was more slow service than fast food. Come with us to remember the sights, sounds, and smells of sizzling pizza in a cast iron pan, and ice-cold Pepsi, a yummy salad bar and hours of video game fun.
Let’s start with this delicious legend:
Remember when Pizza Hut pan pizzas were basically a goddamn culinary delicacy? They’d bring them out in a real fucking skillet that was piping at about 700 degrees Fahrenheit right as your third song kicked in on the jukebox after you’d played a game of Galaga. We were kings. pic.twitter.com/G7dQBRd3qQ

The restaurants looked a lot different.

These glasses kept your Pepsi extra cold too.
And your parents let you drink gallon of Pepsi out of one of these bad boys.

He’s right; it had a certain unforgettable taste to it.
Your soda just tasted better in those red cups

Pizza Hut taught some of us how to read.

If you want to teach kids to read today, this is the way to do it!
Anyone remember scoring personal pan pizzas from Pizza Hut through the Accelerated Reader program? Maybe that was a regional thing, but it was amazing. Read a book, take the quiz, get points, redeem pizza. https://t.co/0D6yQm6FLp

You got a serious bang for your buck.
I remember when They were sit down restaurants with a salad bar and pizza buffet. Get the jugs of pop sitting on the table. My mom used to bring Tupperware to put extra slices in for school lunches the following morning. I miss those days

And all the video games you could possibly stand.
While Pizza Hut seems to be trending how many y’all saw these in them back in the day. pic.twitter.com/vfo7lPJ9D1

People that haven’t experienced old school Pizza Hut don’t know what they’re missing.
since people are talking about '90s Pizza Hut let me tell you, if you never experienced the sheer THRILL of putting that fifth star on your Book It pin because you read five books and could now cash in that button for a free pizza that came in a frying pan you never truly lived

Even today’s Pizza Hut agrees. You know what you have to do guys!
Take us back!

There are so many things like this that we miss, we don’t even know where to begin. Wouldn’t it be great to revisit Pizza Hut as it was just one more time?
