Papa John's founder ate 40 pizzas in 30 days, says 'it doesn't taste as good' [View all]
Papa Johns founder John Schnatter says the pizza companys quality of food has gone downhill since he was removed as CEO.
Schnatter stepped down as the public face of Papa Johns at the end of 2017 after he publicly criticized NFL leadership over football players protests during the national anthem. Six months later, he resigned as chairman of the board due to backlash over his use of the N-word on a conference call with shareholders.
In a new interview with Kentucky TV station WDRB, Schnatter said the company he started in 1984 has declined over the past two years.
Ive had over 40 pizzas in the last 30 days, and its not the same pizza, Schnatter said. Its not the same product. It just doesnt taste as good... The way theyre making the pizza is just not fundamental to what makes a Papa Johns pizza."
