In response to the growing demand for snack-sized dishes and smaller meal options, Pizza Hut Australia is offering a smaller version of its medium pizza. To go along with the new size, the new mid-sized pizza comes with a budget-friendly price tag that makes it a more affordable option.
Instead of selling its traditional 12-inch medium pizza, Pizza Hut Australia is now offering a 9-inch medium pie. To reflect the smaller size, the pizza also comes with a new $5 price tag. While it may seem unusual for a chain to reduce the size of its portions instead of increasing them, the new dish is being marketed as a mid-sized meal option for those looking for something less filling than a regular pizza.
