If you go to the Pizza Hut Web site and look for nutritional information, you better have good eyes because it's the 8th - yes 8th - item from the left on the bottom in the fine print links. Then when you get to that page a couple of levels down, we see what they call their "Food Groups" - pizzahut.com 

What a sad joke.

Then you have to do the math to find out that a medium pan pizza is about 2000 calories. The side dishes can run close to 200 calories each - not per serving but per breadstick or whatever. Throw in another 200ish for two cinnamon sticks and finally another 200 per 16 ounces of soft drinks.

So half a pizza with all the extra goodies gives you enough calories for one person for a day, pretty much. Except you will not have consumed hardly any real food, just empty calories.

The fact that we glorify all that is the root of the sickness.
