TweetDomino’s claims taste-test victory over Pizza Hut, Papa John’s
Domino’s Pizza is claiming victory for its newly reformulated pizza in a taste test against Pizza Hut and Papa John’s, according to this Nation’s Restaurant News (nrn.com) story.
You can read the Domino’s press release here about the “independent, blind taste test of nearly 1,800 random pizza consumers from eight U.S. markets” that led to Domino’s victory claim.
After writing about the new Domino’s recipe in December, I tried the “new” pizza in January, and must admit, I was pleasantly surprised — the sauce, in particular, had a nice red-pepper kick to it. It was a distinct improvement over what I remember of the “old” Domino’s pizza, although it had been quite a while since I’d tasted Domino’s.
Was it better than the pizza served by some of this area’s finest pizzerias? It was not. But it was pretty darn tasty pizza — better than I expected.
