No one out fires the Hut.
Sadly, very nearly everyone out pizzas the Hut these days. However, if I could have one meal from the 90s, dine-in Pizza Hut would be a finalist, at least. Whatever microplastics they used in those classy red cups made the soda taste better. And the stained glass light fixtures gave it the refinement of a 1,000 year old church in Europe.
How far they've fallen.

Yeah I mean the pizza isn't good but wood pulp is in all kinds of food products and isn't really bad for you, it just sounds bad so gets a lot of media attention. There are way worse things that are more common in food

When has anyone ever driven to a pizza hut? I remember do so as a child but now pizza hut seems like a definite delivery thing.
I've literally never gotten Pizza Hut delivered. Maybe it's a Europe vs US thing but to me it's a sit-down restaurant.
In the US Pizza Hut was mostly a sit down restaurant until the 80s/90s when they started focusing more on delivery. Sometimes you can still find the sit down ones that have been there for 30+ years in rural areas because the land cost isn’t as big of a concern.

In the early 80s Pizza Hut used to be sort of like a normal restaurant... they usually had standalone buildings (which now have mostly been turned into other restaurants) rather than spots in strip malls, with a seating area. You could order a pizza or sandwiches and eat with your family, and they had a salad bar back when salad bars were kind of a hot trend. This persisted into the 2000s especially in smaller areas.

It's not delivery. It's Pizza Hut.
To be fair, it’s wild that anyone still employs full time delivery drivers. Every pizza place I’ve worked at either had an employee doing double duty, or used a third party that got paid per delivery. Paying someone an hourly wage to do a job that isn’t even guaranteed to be required (depending on the night) is some franchise-only shit, and I’m not surprised to hear even they’re moving away from it.
