Pizza Hut is delivering a new flavor and a new way of enjoying pizzas to its customers. This month, pizza lovers in the United States will get to enjoy the hot dog stuffed crust starting June 18.
This come after a long wait for the unique flavor, after it debuted in other areas including the United Kingdom, Australia and Canada. According to Kotaku, a tipster who is also a Pizza Hut employee revealed that there are already shipments in Atlanta Pizza Hut stores of sausage and mustard drizzle, crucial ingredients for the new flavor.
The new flavor is not the only thing to watch out for with Pizza Hut. The company also has something in store for its Hong Kong customers. A new invention by Ogilvy Hong Kong has made it possible for Pizza Hut lovers to enjoy movie night with their smartphones, a unique pizza box projector and a piping hot pizza.
Uniquely-designed Pizza Hut boxes can be transformed into movie projectors using the pizza protector, which is the table-like device that keeps the pizza from touching the box. By popping out a perforated hole at the side of the pizza box, slipping the lens into the hole and putting a smartphone inside the box, pizza and movie lovers can enjoy the unique movie-pizza night in a snap, The Verge reported.
The movie can be projected into the wall, though it is advised to use speakers so that the sound quality can be improved. To date, there are four different boxes, each matched to the theme of the movie that also comes free via a scanned QR code. Pizza Hut lovers can enjoy horror movies via Slice Night, sci-fi flicks with Anchovy Armageddon, romance clips with Hot & Ready and action blockbusters for the Blockbuster Box.
Admittedly, compared to regular movie nights, where it is easier to just pop up a DVD and watch in high-quality TV, Pizza Hut's makeshift movie projector is far from an epic movie night. It does, however, bring a creative spin to making use of your food and the box that it comes in. Not to mention the creatively designed Pizza Hut boxes, themed and styled depending on the viewer's favorite movie genre.
For now, however, the contraption is only available for Hong Kong Pizza Hut stores. The company has yet to announce the availability of the promo in other territories.
