Let's get one thing straight -- Pizza Hut's new "Flavor of Now" menu totally makes us cringe, but damn it -- their new commercial is really freakin' funny.
In a genius work of advertising by Deutsch L.A, Pizza Hut takes its outrageously-named pizza (slice of Cock-A-Doodle Bacon, anyone) -- back to the supposed "original pizza makers" -- Italy, otherwise known as "The Old World." And let's just say the Italians weren't happy with the new take on pizza. At all.
We're with you, Carmela.

Other things the Italians hated? The new Pizza Hut mobile ordering site, jeggings and EDM music. HuffPost Taste reached out to a Pizza Hut spokesperson via email, and we can confirm that the people in the ad are real people from Sorrento, Italy, and yes -- they don't really like change.
And while we're not too excited about names like "Skinny Beach" or "Pretzel Piggy," we're definitely gonna watch this commercial a few more times.
Arrivederci, Italy!
