has anyone tried these things? They don't even look appetizing in the commercials that I've been seeing

      It's Pizza Hut. That should 'splain how appetizing they'll not be.

      Next please.

        I had some at the pizza buffet on a company lunch the other day. Similar to Stouffers, IMO. Not that good; not that bad, etc.

          I had one delivered the other night, (noone home and I didnt feel like cooking)

          For FF pasta it was not that bad, I have had better, I have had worse. As far as the taste, I had the alfredo one, and the sauce was thick and cheesy.

                I probably will never get the opportunity to sample the Pizza Hut pasta. Our nearest Pizza Hut closed its doors after 30 years of service last year. Our daughter actually managed the place once. When we travel we have yet to stop at a Pizza Hut.

                    I've seen those commercials but I doubt I'll give that a try. I was driving by one of the local PH's today and there was a big sign out front saying "coming soon Wing Zone" or something similar. Couldn't tell if the PH had gone out of business or this was something they were adding.

                      It's choice.

                        Pizza Hut has been Wing Zone for several years around here. That is, it's Pizza Hut and Wing Zone at the same time.

                            We had a discussion about this in March, 2008:
                            http://www.roadfood.com/Forums/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=26299

                            Adjudicator noted it was similar to Stouffers. That is because it is similar to Stouffers. Shipped frozen, then heated in the restaurant.

                              Take it from this Western New Yorker...they don't. I tried them when some one brought some into the office.

                              Their wing-like product sucks as badly as their pizza-like product does.

                                pizza hut is terrible. In college it was part of our food plan so everyone ordered from there, but I doubt anyone who went to my college will ever eat it again

                                    I would certainly enjoy a comprehensive write up from someone who has tried their menu of pasta instead of folks who just do not like Pizza Hut.

                                    I do not know if I like what they have or not but it is difficult to judge as most of the posters have a built in bias and write negative thoughts without tasting the product.

                                      You're right I will admit I'm biased because of how much I ate it in college. But what really got me was how it looked on tv. Come on pizza hut spruce it up a little for the cameras and fire whoever you pay for advertising. Honestly though if someone was eating it around me I'd try it out of curiosity. It could be one of those foods that are so bad they are good.

                                          My friend, I do not ever complain about anyone who does not like anything. I merely wanted a comprehensive report about a non bias report. If you do not like it, that is fine with me and I am not sure that I do.

                                          Engine Captn, I do not complain about anyone on this forum ever and if I did and had a reason to report it, I would delete it. I rarely ever do that

                                            For FF pasta it was not that bad, I have had better, I have had worse. As far as the taste, I had the alfredo one, and the sauce was thick and cheesy.



                                            I'm with CajunKing. We tried it for the convenience. Got the Alfredo one. It wasn't bad. It's one of those take it or leave it.

                                              I do not know if I like what they have or not but it is difficult to judge as most of the posters have a built in bias and write negative thoughts without tasting the product.

                                              We ordered the alfredo about two weeks ago. It was actually quite tasty. The only complaint I had was the open container was placed inside the box and by the time it was delivered, I think it had cooled off a bit. I think the aluminum pan needs a top to hold in the heat. We'll definitely order it again, but I think I'll pick it up next time.

                                                  I am wondering why anyone would even consider going to Pizza Hut for pasta when every small town has a local "mom and pop" Italian restaurant. If Pizza Hut served up any pasta dishes at all that would be better than the worst Italian restaurant in town, I would faint away from the shock.

                                                    I am not even sure that I would. I was wanting a very honest report from those who had been there.

                                                      Greymo, that just shows what you know. In our town, we have two "mom and pop" Italian restaurants. The reason we ordered the pasta from Pizza Hut is that the pasta from the other two isn't very good. Be sure you have something soft to land on.

                                                        I would imagine that it depends on the region of the country that you live in whether there are "mom and pop" italian restaurants in close vicinity. And I've been to some mom and pop italian restaurants that have been pretty awful
