Pizza Hut cheese is not just cheese, its silicone!

The mods should come along and put on a HOAX tag or something. That would probably end it.

Pizza hut isn't even pizza. It's crackers in a box. Waste of money.

Give me a Tippy's anyday. Not a store chain, a small family business, with real ingredients, and a big fat ugly bugger throwing anything you ask on it.

They sold titanics. These things you could put on the roof of a toyota corolla and it would hang over the sides! HUGE.

Oh man I miss those drunken nights..

Pizza Hut, Dominos etc... bleh.

Look, people, I don't doubt the silicone story for an instant. Silicone is harmless compared to some of the crap you guys eat every day — I mean, you know a lot of fast-food meats are preserved with formaldehyde, right? You know, embalming fluid? And you know that the main ingredient in your toothpastes and deodorants is automotive antifreeze, right? Look it up — Propylene Glycol — and it's used in lots and lots of products you put in and on your delicate bodies.

Fact is, we are inundated with a world of chemistry that we'd rather not discuss openly... Don't act so surprised and indignant. From a healthy world standpoint, we're still in the dark ages.

Jesus isn't there anything we can believe in any more. That is just disgusting, what the Hell, this is just wrong. How dare they.

Yeah although original claim has been somewhat debunked, I dont think this is unheard of, especially if there is the oppertunity to do it anyway.

I just had pizza hut like 2 hours ago

Oh man this is beginning to worry me.....

Guess what I had for dinner a few hours ago? Yep, Pizza Hut Cheese Pizza.

Regardless of the legitimacy of the story (intentional or not), I was eating fast food, what else should I expect.

I know, its always funny when people act so surprised when something like this comes out (true or not). In my opinion, there is hardly a thing in the modern world today that isn't "contaminated," so to speak, with something that is harmful to everyone in some way.

Well, perhaps so long as what you're eating is actually food, and not a bastard franenstein of sawdust, roofing tar, and cheese flavoring. I imagine mawing down on that regularly is going to cause problems, exercise or no!

I did read the article....so ask yourself.. why did he even make the metion of 'cleaning up the cheese'.. ?? huh??

why does cheese need to be cleaned up?? LMAO ..

thx for the slam !!! and don't forget to pull out your logic gun next time ..

Thanks for posting this. UG

I did not know how to make pizza but I went to youtube and watched some dough videos by the guy that runs pizza therapy (I am NOT associated with him, just thankful he taught me how to make good pizza.)....the videos he posted walks you through every step....I still can't 'twirl it but I just roll it out....anyway...everyone loves my pizza. I think that a very well seasoned stone is very important - I know my pizza seems better sense my stone got really well worn in. The kids prefer it to eating out. We've saved a bundle while my neighbors order it every other day.

Here's the link - it might help someone else

The only place I'd consider eating it was Pizza Hut, but I've not ate there in a year? Not in any hurry after reading this!

We're building an outside pizza oven this spring. I can't wait!

Guess I have to lead the horse to the water:

Boynton’s letter did not acknowledge or deny prior use by Leprino Foods of polydimethylsiloxane in manufacture of its “Pizza Cheese.”

Again, there is no evidence that Leprino foods used the additive in the past, only the authors speculation based on the fact that the letter did not explicitly state they did not use it in the past.

not just cheese, it's silicone!

A lot of things that appear to be cheese are not cheese. Next time you're at the grocery store, check out the sliced cheese section and notice how many claim to be not "cheese," but "cheese product."

Cheese is a very specific thing. Many types of cheeses takes years to make. If it's produced within a few hours in a mold, it's probably not cheese.

are they blatantly lying when they say right on the pizza box that
they are using 100% all natural ingredients?

Not neccesarily. What do you think "natural" means? Arsenic, lead, sulphur, silicon...these are all perfectly "natural" things. Or by natural do you think they mean "unprocessed?" But...isn't cooking an "unnatural process?" There's a lot of room for interpretation.

Spot on.

Its all in the interpretation. Yum! Brands, the company that owns Pizza Hut, Frito Lay, Gatorade, Pepsi, Taco Bell, KFC, A&W and Long John Silver's.

they have teams of lawyers sifting through product branding making sure the "Wording" is just right.

People just naturally assume that just because they wouldnt screw people over that means that massive companies like the one is question wouldnt. Well these same "people" need to remember that these companies are faceless and soulless. A conglomerate this large has only 2 objective survive and thrive. people dont rate that high, profit is their god. Keep that in mind next time you dine out.

Support independent.

I know this thread's been debunked, but I just have to say my piece.

I don't care if something is filled with silicone or if it's made from the real thing, I'm happy with it as long as I have a good time putting it in my mouth and I know it's clean.

I've not had a good pizza in about 20 years. The last time was a place in Denton called "the flying tomato".

It was exsquisite. A deep dish with tons of cheese.

All hand made. It was beautiful if not orgasmic.

As a kid, we went to a place near white rock lake in dallas.

Shotgun Sams.

the last chain that had descent pizza was Godfathers. It was nice.

Mmmmmm. there was something about the toasty cheese in the old days.

CiCi's (when it was a hole in the wall in an old Dairy Queen building) was pretty good.

Now everyone gets it from a can. bloody shame!

I'm still searching for a good pizza near dallas.

anyone got a heads up for me? Not a chain please.

Not really Dallas but for us (from the NorthEast originally) we only go to Brooklyn's Best in Arlington or Napoli's in Mansfield.

Years ago I worked in a Pizza shop back in Pennsylvania. Everything we made was from scratch except the cheese. We'd buy it un-grated by the case and mix 3 parts Low Moisture/Part-Skim to 1 part Whole Milk mozzerella. It's the best ratio for taste, melt/stringy-ness and grease! lol

During my time there I saw where pre-packaged, pre-grated cheese became available. There's no way that freshly-grated cheese can be packaged and stored without clumping unless something is added to it.

You can even witness this effect on any Pizza Hut pie you get. Their cheese no longer "strings" but simply comes apart. This is not true mozzerrella.

ummmmmmmmm silicone!


last year i used to eat alot at pizza hut, usually i would order one of their pasta dishes, but my g/f really liked their pizza and would always eat that, and i remembered noticing that her chest did get bigger, this year we stopped going there and i just went to take a look and they do look smaller, i think i will start going there again, also isnt silicone put in most vitamin supplements?

haha thanks brother i always suspected i was adopted. But seriously you know what im saying right?

That sucks.. Pizza Hut is damn good haha. Especially their crust. But, probably figures they'd be doing something like this. Of course they are getting away with it too, they've got money out their ***. Someone should try and sue them for the "100% all natural ingredients" they put on their box. Handle the scandal!

I'm sorry but anyone eating at Pizza Hut is just accepting to eat sh**. Tasty ? Their pizzas are disgusting. Always floating in a puddle of oil. Pizzas are NOT baked in oil.

Next thing you are going to discover that MacDonalds hamburgers are not real home cooked hamburgers ? Come on...

If you accept to eat processed food, you have to know you are eating food with no nutritionnal value, plenty of chemicals added, and way too much salt and sugar to make you come back and beg for more. It's not only Pizza Hut, you will have such scandals for ANY kind of processed food.
