Video: Pizza Hut iPhone App
Pizza Hut's iPhone app got some big-time love in a new Apple iPhone commercial that debuted last week. I haven't seen the commercial yet, and I can't use the app, either, since there are no Pizza Huts in my area that do delivery--and you pretty much can't get past the first screen of the app if you're not in a delivery area. But here's how it works. Enjoy....Leftovers: The Day's Stray Links
Pizza Hut: Chain launches iPhone ordering app. [USAT] LOL: "This is the box they use for pizza round our way. Not as bad as the man with the stick and the young girl, but do I really want to take a pizza from a toothless, homeless urchin? Still, I guess it is Naples, which probably means my wallet is being nicked as I take delivery of the pizza." [Le Franco Phoney] Boston: Where to find Neapolitan-style pizza.

Photograph from Life, hosted by Google Bloomberg reports on something wacky: A deconstructed pizza in a bulbous test tube featured this week at a dinner in London where each course was prepared by a different Italian chef. The event took place on Monday at Dolada restaurant, whose chef Riccardo de Pra created the liquid pizza with mozzarella, tomato, basil and olive-oil components to be guzzled in one go, accompanied by chunks of crust for texture. Oh my. [via Eater SF]...Leftovers: The Day's Stray Links

I dunno. Sounds like more trouble than it's worth. And really, double cheese, green olives, green peppers, and ham? WTF kind of pizza is that? [via Beef Aficionado Nick]...Papa John's Now Twittering
Speaking of Twitter, it looks like Papa John's just started tweeting (@papajohns) making it the first of the major chains to make use of the microblogging service. The @pizzahut and @dominos usernames are either being Twitter-squatted or those outfits have not bothered to update....Domino's Online Ordering Shows You Your Pizza as You Build It
Click me bigger » A tipster just emailed: "Was ordering Domino's last night and they updated their online ordering site with an application that lets you see the pizza you are building. In Flash, with really real-looking imagery. It was pretty cool." I immediately clicked over to Dominos.com to put it through its paces. I signed in, clicked on "Build Your Own Pizza," and started with a Brooklyn-Style crust....Cool Video: The BBC Goes Inside a Frozen-Pizza Factory in Ireland
The BBC has a fascinating video inside a frozen pizza factory in Naas, Ireland. It's amazing how few people are needed to run the place, which turns out 2 million pizzas a week. It's all very Laverne & Shirley intro, minus the wacky charm of human beings. When the pizza "bases" are topped with to-mah-to sauce, it'll sort of remind you of the Play-Doh Mop Top Hair Shop. And the pepperoni stick machine—looks sort of like some octomonster has been caught in a trap. [via Tien Mao]...Order Domino's via TiVo
As of last night, broadband-connected TiVo subscribers can now order Domino's pizza via the device using the TiVo Domino's widget. So far, there's no scheduled ordering—your order is placed for delivery right away instead—but if you were planning that far ahead, you'd probably get your lazy ass off up the couch.
