Pizza "The Hut"

There is a new Hut in town but more delicious. This is kinda old news, but just thought I’d “write” about it. Pizza Hut, actually, is the new “Hut” in town. Pizza Hut is changing due to the fall of pizza delivery? Well anywho, Pizza Hut is going more toward all their other endeavors with their pasta and other foods and calling themselves “The Hut” now. They are not changing their name. It’s more of a new look and nickname to get rid of the image of them just being a pizza business.

In my opinion I think it’s kind of bad idea. You keep a name for so long that you “change” your name/image. Some can pull it off, but if you’re a pizza place, you are a pizza place. Just because Subway serves salads, pizzas and apples doesn’t make them a sub place anymore. Your name is your name.

Ad Age reports on their little mission of reimaging: the_hut_box

“That’s not to say that the company’s non-pizza lines aren’t successful. Pizza Hut’s Tuscani pasta line, launched last year, has already surpassed $1 billion in sales. The chain is also in the midst of a massive reimaging effort, updating the look of its restaurants and adding “Wing Street” chicken wings at its 7,500 U.S. locations.”

And we’ll see where “The Hut” leads to, what do you think? Do you even care? I’ll still be calling it Pizza Hut most likely.

This ad makes me laugh. It seems like food isn’t food anymore. Advertisers must be running out of ideas to promote their food and cranking up the sex appeal dial to eight. Fast foods sex ads are sprouting up everywhere with no signs of stopping, why would they? Thank you Paris Hilton for beginning this new trend, that’s hot. Just think about the Quizno’s Toasty Torpedo commercial of with the guy and his oven, or the “2 Girls, 1 Sub” playboy spoof. Also Hardee’s Western Bacon Burger with Padma Lamshki. Or even ‘The Hills’ Hottie Audrina Patridge is in on the it:

YUM.……Soon, fast food will be one giant orgy on television with ketchup, lettuce, mayonnaise, but hole the onions. The age old phrase that pay, “sex sells,” will never die and never be wrong. It may not make you hungry, but it will make you remember the advertisement. The fact is fast food is becoming sexy and in my opinion hilarious. Food + sex = hungry…. hmmmmmm… I think they got the hint from George Costanza trying the trifecta of food, sex and TV. Now if only they get the full hint and use the most sensual of salted cured meats, pastrami. Thanks adage for bringing this to my attention, just one more thing to look and analyze for when I judge ads.

Here we go now. First you think it’s a harmless 1:1 full scale model. Next there are lights flashing all over it. And now it’s moving, moving. Ok, it’s just the head, but lets face it, soon it will be the arms next week and the week after that the legs. Only time will tell how farm this Gundam will go, next stop space colonies and beyond!
