The timeline for ending the use of chicken treated with important antibiotics is the end of March 2017. The company's statement did not provide details about how this would be achieved.
“We believe that Pizza Hut food shouldn’t only taste great, but you should feel great about it, too,” said Jeff Fox, chief brand and concept officer, Pizza Hut.
“Our enhanced and expanded commitment to superior restaurant-quality food is the result of listening closely to our customers, and they say that these are things that they do not want in their pizzas."
