Papa Johns makes major menu change to win back customers

Over the past few months, consumers across the country have scaled back their spending on fast food, which has significantly impacted Papa Johns' sales. In Papa Johns' (PZZA) first-quarter earnings report for 2025, it revealed that its U.S. comparable sales declined by 3% year-over-year. Don't miss the move: Subscribe to TheStreet's free daily newsletter During an earnings call on May 8, Papa Johns CEO Todd Penegor said that the wallet of the consumer remains "challenged" and highlighted that increased competition is also impacting sales. Related: Papa Johns struggles to recover from concerning customer behavior "As we look at consumer confidence, it does remain challenged amid the economic and market volatility," said Penegor. "We're all talking about it. We all see it. We've seen intensification on competitive pressures in the promotional cycles. We've also seen some challenges on the lower-income cohorts." Consumers are specifically pulling away from having their food delivered and are instead opting to pick up their orders in stores to save money. In response to this trend, Papa Johns partnered with Google Cloud in April to "enhance" the ordering and delivery experience for its customers. "We know we can do delivery better," said Penegor. "And leveraging our new partnership with Google, we will improve driver dispatch and routing, increase the accuracy of our delivery time estimates, and provide better driver tracking." Image source: Bloomberg/Getty Images As Papa Johns fights to reverse alarming customer behavior, it has decided to shake up its menu in order to win back customers. The pizza chain decided that Shaq-a-Roni pizza, launched in 2020 for a limited time, will now become a permanent menu item, selling for $15.99 nationwide. The pizza is inspired by basketball player Shaquille O'Neal and became a fan-favorite five years ago due to its extra-large size. "At Papa Johns, we're elevating the classics that have set us apart to deliver even more value to our customers," said Chief Marketing Officer Jenna Bromberg in a press release. Related: Pizza Hut struggles to reverse troubling consumer trend In addition to making Shaq-a-Roni pizza a permanent menu item, Papa Johns recently introduced Cheddar Crust pizza to its menu, which starts at $11.99 and contains a baked blend of cheddar cheese and garlic seasoning on its crust. To pair with the pizza, the company also launched Cheddar Cheesticks, made from dough that is covered in garlic sauce and topped with seasoned cheddar cheese. They sell for $10.50 and are served with Papa Johns' original pizza dipping sauce. Both new menu items are available for a limited time. The menu changes from Papa Johns come after its competitors have also added new menu items to boost low sales. In March, Domino's Pizza added a Parmesan Stuffed Crust pizza to its menu after it reported weak sales during the fourth quarter of 2024.

The menu change occurred during a period when Pizza Hut's system sales in the U.S. decreased by 7% year-over-year. Many consumers have recently been avoiding fast-food restaurants due to their inflated prices, which have spiked by roughly 47% over the past decade. Data from Ipsos Consumer Tracker last year revealed that 34% of U.S. consumers have cut back on having dinner at fast-food restaurants. A total of 30% also said they have been avoiding getting dinner from takeout or delivery, while 45% said they are cooking dinner at home more.

Wildfire smoke, shark pardons and lost 401(k) accounts: Your week in review

Wildfire smoke, shark pardons and lost 401(k) accounts: Your week in review Show Caption Hide Caption Smoke drifting into US from Canada wildfires could impact health Smoke from wildfires in Canada has drifted into Montana, the Dakotas, Minnesota, Midwestern and East Coast states, and as far south as Florida. Canadian wildfire smoke hangs over U.S. Skies were looking milky across much of the United States for days as smoke from wildfires raging in Canada drifted into northern and Midwestern states and dipped even as far south as Florida. The Dakotas, Iowa and most of Minnesota and Wisconsin were under air quality alerts, and the haze hung over major cities including New York, Washington, Philadelphia and Boston. More than 200 wildfires were burning in Canada as of June 3, and more than half were classified as "out of control," Canadian forest fire authorities said.

Trump pardons Florida divers who freed sharks Presidential pardons have often sparked controversy, but Donald Trump's latest gesture had some teeth to it. Trump granted full clemency to two Florida divers, John Moore Jr. and Tanner Mansell, who were convicted of theft for cutting 19 sharks free from a fisherman's longline in 2020. They had assumed the gear was illegal; it turns out it belonged to a vessel permitted by the federal government to harvest sandbar sharks for research. "Whether people believe in his politics or not, he chose to pardon me ... and only ever wanted to help," Mansell said in a text. "I can't help but feel extremely grateful." A fortune sits in 'lost' 401(k) accounts You might think it would be hard to forget almost $60,000. But at least $1.7 trillion is wasting away in forgotten 401(k) accounts, the financial firm Capitalize found, and the average lost balance is $56,616. How does that happen? People who leave a job "usually have a bunch of things going on,' said David John of the AARP Public Policy Institute, and simply lose track. (More than 47 million Americans quit their jobs in the Great Resignation of 2021.) And someone who leaves a job after only a year or two might be especially prone to overlook a modest balance − which, thanks to the magic of tax-free investment growth, eventually turns into a big balance. Loretta Swit, 'M*A*S*H's beloved 'Hot Lips,' dies Fans, friends and co-stars were remembering Loretta Swit, who starred as Major Margaret "Hot Lips" Houlihan through all 11 seasons of TV's hugely popular Korean War dramedy "M*A*S*H" and gave depth and strength to a character who began as an oversexed blond stereotype. Swit, 87, died May 30. "More than acting her part, she created it," star Alan Alda, 89, posted on X. Jamie Farr, 90, who played Corporal Maxwell Q. Klinger, told USA TODAY she was his "adopted sister … as close as family can get." The cast was a tight-knit group through the years, Swit once said: "We might as well be joined at the hip." Close isn't good enough for the New York Knicks Some teams just want to win NOW. Maybe that's why the New York Knicks fired coach Tom Thibodeau, stunning much of the basketball world, just days after the franchise flirted with the NBA Finals for the first time in 25 years before falling to the Indiana Pacers. Not bad for a team that had won just 21 games in the 2019-20 season before Thibodeau took over. The Knicks might be forgiven for being a little impatient after their magical run, however: They have not won a title since 1973. (The NBA Finals, with the Pacers facing the Oklahoma City Thunder, tipped off June 5). − Compiled by Robert Abitbol, USA TODAY copy chief

You can now pre-order Pokémon Legends: Z-A for the Switch and Switch 2

Pokémon Legends: Z-A, the much-awaited follow-up to 2022's Pokémon Legends: Arceus, is now available for pre-order. You can get the digital version for the old Switch for $60 or for the new Switch 2 for $70 from Nintendo's website. In case you have no plans to get the Switch 2 anytime soon and you do get the game for the first Switch console, you can purchase an upgrade pack for $10 to get access to better graphics and higher frame rate for Nintendo's new system later on. Pre-ordering lets you pre-load the game so you can play it as soon as it becomes available on October 16. The action role-playing game is not just a follow-up to Arceus, but also a sequel to Pokémon X and Y. It's set in Lumiose City, introduced in X and Y over a decade ago, and features three available starters: Chikorita and Totodile from Gold and Silver, as well as Tepig from Black and White. Its gameplay is a mix of the real-time capture mechanics on Arceus and the old-school turn-based gameplay of traditional Pokémon titles. The game is also bringing back X and Y's Mega Evolution mechanic, which can temporarily transform a Pokémon into a much stronger monster, boosting its power and sometimes even changing its type. The physical version of Pokémon Legends: Z-A is now also available for pre-order from retailers like Walmart (Switch, Switch 2) and Best Buy (Switch, Switch 2.). It's not clear if pre-ordering the game will get you any bonuses, but the Walmart listing URLs hint at an "exclusive gift with purchase."
