    Sucks. Barely any pasta, way too much bread. Pasta sucks too. I hate false advertisement. They looked so good in the commercials :eek: .

    Sounds a bit redundant, too; like a chocolate bar filled with chocolate pudding, or something.

    Figures. Looks too good in the commercial to be anything special in reality.

    The carb overload is pretty ridiculous, I'll have to agree.

    THe breadbowl pasta is pretty attrocious. Talk about dry. Might as well make a dominos pizza lasagna where instead of meat and cheese in between the lasagana layers, there's more crust. :eek:

    Looks edible enough for me, like most food does. It doesnt look "disgusting", but I guess I better condition my mind to think that, the healthy eater overreaction to anything excessive

    Last year before the bread bowls, this was what they launched.

    <object width="640" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/9YeTO1cFQOs&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/9YeTO1cFQOs&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="640" height="385"></embed></object>

    Some uptight a-holes b****ed that the Pasta Dude was doing an obscene dance and the ad was pulled. I never saw it on tv. I guess they not only dropped the campaign, but took the pasta off the menu because I don't remember them having any before those awful bread bowls.

    Here the same ad with a different voice and the "obscene dance" taken out:

    I tried their Philly Steak sandwich and Chicken Bacon Ranch sandwich a while back. Neither one impressed me at all. The Philly Steak was almost as flat as a pancake and was completely bland. The meat in that sandwich was a joke. The Chicken sandwich wasn't much better but had more taste because of the Ranch dressing. Part of that is quality of the bread/dough they use and it wasn't very good. Their pizza is bad, too. There is no way I would think this bowl pasta would be anything but a disappointment. I was even thinking to myself when watching the bowl pasta commercials that there didn't seem to be much pasta. I'm sure the taste is forgettable.

    Honestly, I'm not sure how Dominos stays in business.

    I agree. I mean they are even the same price as most of their competitors but it seems they have the smallest servings of everybody too.

    We got a gift certificate to Dominos for a large 1-topping pizza and a couple of drinks for Christmas, so we finally decided to use it last month. We called, and after trying for 10 minutes to tell us that they don’t deliver to Kingwood (even though they’re LOCATED in Kingwood…), they added up so many extra charges that it would have cost us about $14 to have our “free” pizza and drinks delivered.

    I said OK, then called back 15 minutes later and told the guy “forget it, your pizza tastes like crap anyway and we only called because it was supposedly free.”

    Seriously, how do they even stay in business? Bad overpriced pizza, horrible promotions (like this disgusting looking pasta bread bowl), bad customer service, bad publicity via YouTube….tell me why I should call them instead of Papa Johns???

    Some people like Domino's. I know that they get it here at work in the rare instance they order food for us. I don't like it, never have.
