Wait, “I’ve had more than 40 pizzas in the last 30 days” is used as part of an argument that the pizza isn’t of high quality? I think I’m getting my reality backwards here.

He has to choke down every bite but he’s still determined to stick it to the company by taking advantage of the “free pizzas for life” clause that was written into his severance package.

I love pizza, but dude, that’s too much pizza.
Umm, nobody gives a schnat about how you were ousted. Just schnat the fuck up.

No Mr Schnatter you did that all on your own long before your racist ass was tossed out. Your pizza was mediocre at best then and still is.

40 Papa John pizzas?

the full quote is…
“I’ve had over 40 pizzas in the last 30 days, and it’s not the same pizza,” Schnatter said. “It’s not the same product. It just doesn’t taste as good.”
Someone needs to tell him that it never tasted good.

I didn’t realize it was possible for Papa John’s pizza to get worse.

Amazing how good things are without a big ol’ dash of racism!

He’s right, though. The secret ingredient used to be that they’d whisper racial slurs at the pizza right before it went in the oven. It gave it that toasty “burnt asshole” flavor. But nooooooooo, you all wanted bland “PC” pizzas.

I’m wondering if it’s actually better, now? (I haven’t had any in a while; it was always because someone at work bought it for lunch) Like maybe, they quit adding discernible amounts of sugar?

They came for my pepperoni; I said nothing.
They came for my mushrooms; I said nothing.
They came for my sausage; I said nothing.
They came for my black olives; I said nothing.
They came for my Canadian bacon; I said nothing.
They came for my anchovies; I said nothing.
They came for my deep dish crust; I said nothing.
I don’t buy from Papa John’s.

I often wonder if you sat people down and gave them each a square inch of:
Pizza Hut
Little Caesar’s
Papa John’s
Domino’s
Frozen Trader Joe’s
Some random Italian “Roast beef and Seafood” hole-in-the-wall
How many could tell the difference. The only difference I would be able to tell is that the hole-in-the-wall place probably has the greasiest and best tasting.

If he’s talking down the company to lower the stock price - is he trying to scoop more up & regain control?
During his racism incident the stock price dived 11%. He needs to be careful of insider trading concerns - and not be racist.
Also - let’s be honest - that pizza never tasted good.

“The food here tastes terrible.”
“I know, and such small portions too.”

Spoiler: Papa John’s is the one that just tastes like thick under-cooked crust.
There’s a reason that the best thing about their pizza is their garlic dipping sauce; their product is essentially just a round breadstick.

Is Papa John on MDMA in that photo?

THIS. So he’s pretty much single-handedly keeping them in business, is what I’ve taken from this.
