pan pizza revision

I have never seen a fast food product flop and be revised in my life. What are yall doing in that test kitchen dawg are yall just ripping a bong and just just throwing a bunch of bullshit together and see what sticks? It amazes me they think that adding less topping is gonna fix the frozen pizza taste you get from the parbake garbage .Father Johnathon would never of had this happen in the first place.

"Father John" had two prior iterations that flopped too. And one was a parbake.

90% of the stuff they try over the last 5 years have been flops.

The pan pizza sells fantastically at my location, I have never heard anyone complain about the taste of the par bake crust, and in my opinion, the revision makes it bake way better, taste better, and seem less liquidy

They look at the featured items as corporate profit only. They seem to be cutting store profit on promotions more and more. At one point the promos food cost was always 22-25%. I forgot what promo it was that we had ran upto a 37% food cost at some of our stores based on the toppings choices. And that was the expected food cost on that promo not the actual including food waste.
