A Big Shout-out to Papa John's!
This may not be an official "Happy Happy Pizza", since no-one sent this in, but I soon as I saw the flyer I knew I had to scan this
in and post it. Behold the glory of the Papa John's smiling pizza!
Now before I continue I should point out that this site is not sponsored by
Papa John's and noone has paid
me to post this. But c'mon.... a smiling pizza grinning back at me from my kitchen counter... I couldn't resist...
Now with that said I'm going to have to critique this pizza and give it
a measly 1/10. You see, although I can
appreciate the marketing genius behind putting a smile on a pizza, this one is
very misleading since it is nothing more
than a face
Photoshopped onto a normal cheese pizza. I mean, with the options they have for kid's pizzas you couldn't even make this face!
Just imagine the gloomy look on your child's face when they rush to the door, smiley-face flyer clutched in their little hands just waiting for the
box to open only to discover to their horror and dismay that they are only getting a plain-jane run-of-the-mill Papa John's kids pizza.
No mushroom nose. No green pepper eyebrows. No smile.
I mean, there's like a 99%
chance your child will be scarred for life and develop some kind of pizza phobia...
Do you really want the guilt of that on your conscience? Of course not!
So my mission to those of you considering taking up Papa John's on their "Kids eat free!" promotion
is to
be sure to request that your kids pizza has a smiley face on it. And even better,
send the pictures to us!
