Why, exactly, does the statement about "KenTaco Hut" need a citation? It's common slang. What sources are acceptable citations for that sort of thing? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 170.35.208.21 (talk • contribs) .
Despite having several "Taco Bell/KFC" locations in Memphis (and recently, one "Taco Bell/Long John Silvers"), I'd never heard of "KenTaco Hut", or its variations. -- Cybertronian03:21, 29 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Here in Colorado Springs, I've heard more than a few people refer to our Taco Bell / Pizza Hut combinations as "TacoHutPizzaBell"s. Why that matters any, I don't know, but it seemed relevant. People are odd. 70.56.243.6122:28, 15 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
At some point during the 1980s and 1990s, I think Yum! Brands (or a subsidary/predecessor) was publicly traded under the name National Pizza Company. Upon visiting a Pizza Hut in 1992 or 1993, a tractor-trailer delivering fresh inventory with "National Pizza Co." printed on it also carried the Taco Bell, Pizza Hut, and "KFC" (not Kentucky Fried Chicken) logos. (I suspect 1992, because they also had the basketball arcade game "Arch Rivals" in the waiting area.) -- Cybertronian03:16, 29 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Coca Cola Products are Sold in Central (Harrisburg Market) and Western (Erie Market) Pennsylvania Pizza Hut locations.

No Pizza Huts Have Coca-Cola. only Pepsi products is serve at all pizza huts in america. some pizza hut express as well as some taco bell express have coke instead of pepsi likely due to the some whole buildings which has pizza huts or taco bells have seperate contract with coca-cola. 71.188.4.172 (talk) 19:33, 23 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah.. at Georgia Tech (which is located in the shadow of the Coca-Cola world headquarters building), we were told at orientation that our Pizza Hut Express was the "only Pizza Hut in the world that sold Coke." Georgia Tech receives a lot of funding from the Coca-Cola Co. and, as a result, only allows Coke products to be sold on campus. It is conceivable that there are many other such circumstances that would result in the Pepsi-only relationship being overriden Seyon (talk) 07:46, 31 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
First off, the rainforest animal abuse or whatever and all other critical fields need to be merged into one. Secondly, there is no citation for any of this and I think words like "refuse" are kinda harsh. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Okluschen (talk • contribs)
"mistreating and/or torturing its chickens in horrible ways." - is there a nice way to mistreat/torture chickens?
Yes. Yes there is. Not very nice for the chicken, but nice nonetheless. Also, Taco John's is a popular northern restaurant chain and does not belong in the article. I say that here because I know someone will revert it if I make the edit.Tarkaan00:10, 8 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
What ownership interest does PepsiCo have? Not mentioned on Morningstar or Yahoo. Morningstar's PepsiCo report refers only to its divestiture of Yum in 1997. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Badams5115 (talk • contribs) 13:06, 23 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
A&W and Taco Bell are listed as Global. These do not exist in New Zealand, but KFC and Pizza Hut do. I'm pretty sure A&W and Taco Bell are not in Australia either. Can we get a qualification of what countries constitute Global?
Also, in New Zealand, KFC and Pizza Hut are owned by Restaurant Brands, who also incidentally own Starbucks here.
-- Technically, Yum! still owns the brands, whereas they have sold the rights to use them in New Zealand in perpetuity to Restaurant Brands. I believe, however, that Yum! still has quite a bit of power in making decisions such as color schemes of the restaurants, product lines, etc..Seyon (talk) 07:51, 31 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
In this statement:
"The growth of Yum! Brands throughout the United States has slowed from its previous rapid expansion. This is due to the fact that the chain has saturated most of the domestic market."
-This is an opinion, not a fact. For all we know, it may be due to a number of other factors, including poor management, shifting consumer trends or the economic downturn.Landroo (talk) 06:45, 4 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
This may just be a rumor, but I suppose the source is reputable enough for an inquiry. But a store manager at a local TB informed me that Yum! was dropping A&W and Long John's. Anyone hear about this? If so, it may be worth mentioning.166.227.47.105 (talk) 18:18, 27 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
It is currently in the article "With little presence outside the US and Canada, the two chains no longer fit in the company's long-term growth plans" but the wording is problematic in that A&W (Canada) was sold away from A&W Restaurants in 1972 and dropped the drive-in restaurant concept entirely by 1999. "Yum" therefore never had an A&W presence in Canada, it's a different company. K7L (talk) 16:30, 20 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I'm somewhat puzzled by the "Long John Silver's no longer owned by this company" part. How does that work with LJS/KFC combined restaurants that still exist (and I know they *do* still exist, since I just ate at one last month)? How does a double-restaurant like that that's halfway owned by two different companies at the same time work...? 107.4.161.129 (talk) 07:03, 13 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Was that <blockquote>d sentence intended to mean [the same thing as]
Tricon moved its headquarters to Louisville, KY from the Pepsi HQ in Purchase, New York, by early 1998.
-- ? --
Perhaps while also including -- at the same time -- the "additional information" that Louisville, KY had been selected [partly] because it was near the KFC Restaurant Support Center -- ? --
If the above possible explanationguess is correct, then IMHO that "additional information" would fit better in a separate sentence. For example: "Tricon selected Louisville KY for its headquarters because it was near the KFC Restaurant Support Center."
