Pizza Hut SKINNY PIZZA??
Replies

With the few calories that they cut out, they might as well just make their entire menu lower calorie and not worry about marketing one specific product. If one slice saved more than 80 calories, I'd feel differently.0

This damn "Skinny" trend is on my LAST nerve. Skinny Pizza, Skinny Lattes, Skinny Cocktails, ugh. :grumble:
Eat and drink the REAL thing and be satisfied.

Pizza Hut does not sit well with me at all...as in...I have to sit on the porcelain throne for an entire day afterwards.
No thanks.0 -
I tried one of these in UK. Seriously Pizza Hut? It's horrible! For those of you who haven't think salty hard cardboard and you are on the right track... Might as well eat the box....0

I think skinny pizza is a marketing dream.0

Peter Piper Pizza offers a ultra thin crust pizza & if you get it hawaiian style it's only 130 calories a slice. So this new Pizza Hut skinny pizza thing is old news. I'll just stick to my Rafaeles New York style veggie & meat supreme :smooched:0

The problem with thin crust pizza in general is it takes like a whole pizza to satisfy. Deep Dish takes what, 3 slices?
Deep dish pizza is way too doughy for me. I find thin crust satisfying.
Diff'rent strokes.0 -

Agreed. It's just mildly embarrassing to buy/order, too. At a size 22 or a size 10 I find it embarrassing tbh - and feel it brings negative attention to order something like "skinny margarita"...ugh...0 -
Dominos Australia offer a good choice range which are around 800-950 cals for the whole pizza. I've been eating these for years.
I prefer them for taste anyway. They basically just use a lower fat cheese and less of it and a thinner base. When you finish one there isn't a pile of oil left on the box. I much prefer these than super greasy ones.0 -
Same here. I like the Papa Murphy's De-Lite pizzas.The problem with thin crust pizza in general is it takes like a whole pizza to satisfy. Deep Dish takes what, 3 slices?

I've been ordering diet coke with all food for decades. I'm not embarrassed by anything on a menu.
I would never buy a bottle of Skinny Girl wine or cocktails, but I like light beer. But those 55 calorie beers? Nah, may as well water it down yourself instead of paying beer prices for half-beer/half-water. :laugh:0 -

Yeah that sounds much better than the average Pizza Hut pizza.0 -
Quit messing with my food!0

We have Papa Murphy's by us and their De-light pizza is great. It's super thin crust & I load it up with only veggies and ask for 1/2 the amount of cheese. It's 40% less calories and you can get their nutritional info online. Being an admitted pizzaholic I can satisfy my craving with 2 slices and a salad for dinner

I do not see the need for this. Just eat pizza, one or two slices instead of four or five. It's not difficult.
Yes, it is.0 -

It's a good idea for marketing purposes and all that. They'll probably get a lot of people jumping on the skinny pizza bandwagon and spending more $$$ for less pizza. You go pizza hut!
With that being said I hate most pizza chains. I make a bangin' home made pizza with my grandma's dough recipe Buffalo chicken pizza, spinach alfredo pizza, gyro pizza. You name it, I can make it. And since I'm making it myself I can control the calories, which I like too. 0 -

Meh. The last time I ordered Pizza Hut a year and a half ago I ended up with terrible service and it tasted like greasy cardboard. I'll pass.0

so much sodium in pizza hut pizza I had to stop eating it way before I decided to start weight loss. We make our own at home and tweak it for low sodium low carb.0

Marketing ploy to give you less product for the same money. Increased margins...bonus.
Silly humans.0 -

from 290 cals/slice to 210...not that big of a difference I suppose, but hey 80 cals adds up when you eat an entire pizza..
I have 2 problems with this:
1. The cost is the same so the cost per calorie has gone way up!
2. I often DO eat the entire pizza by myself (and fit it into my calorie/macro targets) so this skinny slice pizza is likely to leave me hungry!
I can maintain a BMI near 20 (perfect for long distance running) while regularly consuming entire pizzas. Anyone can make a few slices (regular) pizza fit their calorie targets by practicing some sensible portion control. Or they could just exercise a lot more so that an entire pizza can fit into their daily targets.
Why pay extra for less of the same ingredients just because it is labelled as a "skinny food"?0 -

If I have to go with a national chain, yes. Papa John's all the way.
Rather go with Napoletana-style pizza and enjoy a much more delicious pizza that just happens to have fewer calories for the same size slice.0 -
I haven't had pizza since I started this almost four months ago. I would have tried this before I started counting calories, but now that pizza is a rarity, I don't want to gamble (I am having four slices this weekend--here's to uneaten exercise calories!)0

Meh. I don't have a problem with it. It's just a slightly thinner crust and a little less cheese. I don't think most people would notice a difference if they weren't told it was a "skinny" pizza. I reduced the amount of cheese that I use on our homemade pizzas by 25% and no one noticed.
Think of it. If I normally eat 2 slices of pizza and eat 2 slices of this one instead, I would save 160 calories. Means I can eat an extra serving of ice cream in addition to my normal slices of pizza.
I don't think its a bad thing. Kind of not getting the outrage over this.0
