Trying this at home
My coworker Lee B. was joking about heading to PiChiTa for lunch – the local Pizza Hut / KFC / Taco Bell combo. I responded that he’d best be careful, because if he said “pichita” too loudly over there, it would end up as their newest menu item.
Then I got to thinking. Take some lightly seasoned diced chicken. Put it in a taco shell, cover with a little pizza sauce, add a judicious amount of your favorite topping (crumbled sausage, chopped pepperoni or shrooms, whatever), and melt some mozzarella atop the whole thing.
Frankly, that sounds pretty good. If Starr’s brave this weekend, we may have to experiment a bit. If it’s good, I’ll give Lee full credit.
I’ve seen these combo franchises produce crossover items on occasion, but rarely three at once. The most common I’ve seen is the mexican pizza.
A “mexican pizza” is a standard item at Taco Bell – now if they made it using a Pizza Hut crust or something that would be unique and kind of gross.
We usually call it “Kentucky Fried Taco Hut”, but PiChiTa is much more convenient in a conversation.
Mmmm, pizza taco…
