We had about 20 of the 522047 (translucent blue) at home for many years. Last year we had to get rid of all but a six or so because they just finally gave way to the heat of the dishwasher and cracked. But, we don't need shatter resistant cups anymore anyway, so it's all good.
Agreed, but hear me out. For the discerning individual on the go there was nothing better than the jazz cup. I can still taste that waxy last sip of soda pop.
On a post in the random internet realm somebody was commenting about license plates looking so messed up with the color coming off and such. And there was this one user who must have just been waiting for this moment all their life who responded with a super in-depth explanation about license plates, the years that they were made with certain materials and how those materials are why. And so much more information about a very niche subject. Paragraphs that you can tell weren't copy & paste or AI
I would prefer that over shattering into a hundred razor-sharp shards, one of which I won't find until I'm barefoot in the kitchen getting a drink at 11PM..
I feel like sharing more. You could take this cup and go filll it with "orange juice" or fruit punch. Or, you could get milk--which meant you had to "milk the iron cow," a ritual involving gestures and sound effects as you hoisted the incredibly heavy lever that dispensed milk from a plastic bag in a cardboard box in a steel container.
People who have this cup at home understand that the real reason this is the best cup out there is because this cup fits your whole fucking hand when you’re trying to wipe it out and make sure it’s really, really clean.
After making the mistake once, it became personal policy that I would never buy cups unless they were packaged in such a way that I could open the box and practice washing them.
But in exchange for the pain of getting those little crevices clean, that bump lets you stack them in the drying rack and there'll still be enough airflow that they'll all drip-dry anyway.
The plastic still degrades over time from normal use, especially cleaning. As it does, the now deteriorated surface starts releasing microplastic whenever someone drinks from it, which gets worse over time.
I honestly figure you're being sarcastic but just in case either you or someone reading this didn't know :)
Seriously what my household wants to do when we get enough money to set ourselves up nice. Get restaurant dishes that will last forever and set everything up with the practicality of a commercial kitchen
As a German, it was never in doubt for me as a kid that pizza hut referred to the German word for hat - "hut". It was pizza hat for me, as is clearly shown by the logo. I think I was about 25 and in the US when I realized...
The logo depicts the distinctive red roof of a Pizza Hut restaurant. The roof of a hut in which you can purchase and eat pizza. A pizza would make a poor hat.

I think the red one is better

I’ll have Coke with a generous helping of microplastics.

Oh...... It's breakable,.... Just at great cost.

The cup that falls off the table and ends up 3 counties over in 0.3 seconds with no cracks at all.

Just got back from Vegas and the souvenir cup when you order a mocktail at the Coca-Cola store on the strip is the Carlisle 5216.

Carlisle 550910 Optic. Loved this cup so much, but it was not unbreakable. Rolled off the counter one day. Cracked on all 3 bounces. 😢

I have a couple of the 32oz versions left. I only use them to fill up the cat's water bowl/fountain across the house now.

Across the house? That's a hell of a throw.

unbreakable, sure, but they bounce off a tile floor like you wouldn't believe...

And for some reason it bounces 30dB louder after dark.

I just ordered some pizza hut.. it wasn't bad, but it's just not the same without the Tiffany style lamps and red plastic cups. 😅

Last time I had Pizza Hut it was this sad dystopian take-out-only place. How'm I supposed to enjoy my pizza without table-top Galaxians?

Back before they were bought out and cheaped out on the ingredients making it tasteless.

GoCorral
And if you get two of them you can blow on it and make them spin.

I refuse to purchase or own any cup or mug that doesn't conform to those standards.

Personally I prefer suited to dishwasher, so glass.

It does have the stack stopper bumps inside which are a bit of a pain

But in exchange for the pain of getting those little crevices clean, that bump lets you stack them in the drying rack and there'll still be enough airflow that they'll all drip-dry anyway.

microplastics galore
onlyhalfghost
my experience of commercial kitchen work suggests you should maybe also be worried about *macro*plastics.
thedarklord187
Fun fact all those micro plastics are inside you too even if youve never drank from plastic in your life it's the gift that keeps on giving.

They put that shit on everything

522007 for soft drinks, 522410 for water. They just hit different when they're like that.

Can confirm the water tasted so bad in red

Exactly. Red version is proven to be 112x better. It's science.

That’s exactly why I got my cups. I have the nugget ice maker, so I can now relive my childhood.

Definitely the first thing that popped into my head.
I miss that sundae bar. I wish they still had eat-in restaurants. Those were good days.

Had a boss refer to herself as pizza the slutt before. Good human, allways fun.

What the WHAT! I was today years old when I found that out.
And that’s me growing up speaking Pennsylvania Dutch. I should have known that!

Technically a hut is just some walls wearing a hat

SouthOfRubick
It would keep the rain off of you, and protect you from the sun - can't ask for a better hat/hut
ScotiaWolf
And it's edible too!
Drawstencil
I would ask for the pizza’s box instead, in both scenarios.
