Pizza to help relationship break-ups on Valentine's Day

Valentine's Day makes us think of romance, red roses, pink hearts and candlelit dinners. We rarely think about breaking up with a partner. Pizza Hut is selling a Valentine's pizza for those who want to break up with their partner. The name of your soon-to-be ex will be written on the box. Customers can also visit a Pizza Hut website to send a break-up message, and a link for the "future-ex" to receive a complimentary pizza.

Pizza Hut said: "We are bringing that perfect blend of sweet and heat…to real life. We are delivering spicy news in the sweetest way for Valentine's Day." It said break-ups were "awkward," so delivery drivers "will deliver the bad news in the best way". It added: "We'll generate an expertly crafted, carefully curated, and potentially plausible break-up excuse for you." Around 45 per cent of people believe it is best to end a relationship before February 14.
