Valentine's Day makes us think of romance; of red roses, pink hearts and candlelit dinners. We rarely think about breaking up with our partner. The restaurant chain Pizza Hut is selling a Valentine's pizza for those who want to break up with their partner. Pizza Hut is selling "Hot Honey Goodbye Pies". It will write the name of your soon-to-be ex on the pizza box. Pizza Hut also has an online service to aid the break-up. Customers can visit GoodbyePies.com to send a break-up message, and a link for the "future-ex" to receive a complimentary pizza to help them get over being dumped.
Pizza Hut said: "With the launch of Goodbye Pies, 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." Its website said: "Break-ups are awkward. We can help. Send a free…Goodbye Pie from now through Valentine's Day, and the delivery driver 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." A poll stated that 45 per cent of people believe it is best to end a relationship before February 14.
