Pizza Hut was the place to be during the 1990s. Piping hot pies, a cool and funky atmosphere and let’s not forget about the personal pan pizzas! If you were a kid in the 1990s, you ate PLENTY of personal pan pizzas, no doubt.
People are waxing nostalgic on Twitter about beloved Pizza Hut which, sadly, hasn’t aged quite as well as you would hope.
Ugh, just the thought of Pizza Hut as it used to be is making us warm and fuzzy inside:

Ah, the good old days when life was simpler and pizza was just, well, more pizza-y. Pizza Hut was and always will be the OG pizza place in all of our hearts.
Do you have strong Pizza Hut memories from when you were growing up? Maybe a few pizza parties or even a first date there?
