Its only going to damage the company
Pizza Hut is a big world known name so there really is no point in changing it. If they love pasta that much just run an advertising campaign to promote these pasta dishes.

I'm sure I'll get used to it but I do prefer 'Pizza Hut'. I'm gutted they're cutting down on the pizzas though, they did lush pizzas, such a great range.

Its a trial, and its only 30 stores.

I think its a skanky place to eat anyway and they can change the name/image all they want I still won't be stepping foot in there.

In 1998, Kellogg's briefly changed the name of Coco Pops to Choco Krispies in the United Kingdom, Republic of Ireland, and South Africa so that they could be in line with Germany and Spain, where it is known by this name. However, after falling sales and a telephone poll in which the British public voted, its name was reverted in 1999.

Another classic British brand Opal Fruits were renamed Starburst in 1998, the name under which they had been exported to the US in the seventies. The original name is now set to return in celebration of the tenth anniversary of the change.

Cadbury reintroduced the Wispa last year after an internet campaign which also involved protesters storming a stage at the Glastonbury festival.
And Marathon became Snickers.

Pasta Hut sounds very middle class lol. But the pasta will probably be overcooked and yuk.

Also, what was the Lion Bar before it was that? Was it Big Cat or has it always been Lion Bar?
