Pizza Hut, renowned for pushing the boundaries of crust invention, has outdone itself yet again. The pie-making giant, known for its seemingly outrageous crust concoctions such as cheese-filled and hot dog-stuffed variations, is ushering in its latest offering just in time for the NCAA season: the Cheesy Bites Pizza is back on the menu, accompanied by an all-new Ranch Lover’s Flight.

The much-loved Cheesy Bites Pizza, which initially hit the scene in 2006, has tantalized fans' taste buds for a long time. Making its first reappearance in six years, the pizza swaps out traditional crust for a ring of 28 mozzarella-filled dough nuggets. The pizza-style snack, primed for sharing (or not), is the perfect companion to the new Ranch Lover’s Flight sauces, designed for an unparalleled dip-and-dunk experience.

In an unusual twist, each sauce in the Ranch Lover’s Flight is all ranch, each displaying a slightly different character. While the sauces don't revolutionize the ranch genre, they do provide a fun and unique experience, especially for the ranch aficionado. Deemed a choose-your-own-dipping-adventure, the Ranch Lover’s Flight offers a full-flavored experience.

Rachel Antalek, Pizza Hut's head of food innovation, remarked on the re-introduction of the Cheesy Bites Pizza, stating, "As we bring back Cheesy Bites Pizza, we wanted to take the dipping experience even further. The Ranch Lover’s Flight gives customers three unique ways to enjoy their pizza, making this the ultimate dip-and-dunk experience just in time for March Madness.”

The future permanence of these ranch variations is uncertain, but they are specifically engineered to complement the Cheesy Bites format. They can also be used for any other dipping desires your heart might harbor – no judgement here!

From March 26 to May 25, the combo deal of a one-topping Cheesy Bites Pizza and the Ranch Lover’s Flight will be available for dine-in, carryout, and delivery at participating Pizza Hut locations nationwide. This limited-time offer is strategically timed to align with the manic snacking spree of the NCAA tournament season.

To further amplify the buzz, Pizza Hut is initiating a new brand campaign featuring the fictitious delivery guy, Peter Zahut. Part courier, part living party accessory, Zahut will make his first appearance during the NCAA Sweet 16, bringing along a wave of positivity and, presumably, a ton of napkins.
