Gee, Another RW Bullshitter: Papa John's Founder Admits: He Didn't Really Eat 40 Pizzas In 30 Days

.

Papa John’s founder and former CEO, John Schnatter, has revealed that he did not, in fact, consume 40 whole pizzas in 30 days.

During an appearance on the H3 Podcast this week, Schnatter argued that in the viral November interview during which he made the claim, he used an ambiguous verb to describe his pizza consumption and never actually said he ate 40 whole pizzas.

Well, I didn’t say I’d eaten 40 pizzas in 30 days. I said I had 40 pizzas in 30 days,” he told co-hosts Ethan and Hila Klein.

Ethan Klein pushed back on the former pizza mogul’s reckless use of language: “Well hold on.... When I said I had a pizza, that means I ate it.”

When I said I had a pizza, this means I’m inspecting,” Schnatter responded. “I’m not eating every pizza. I may be eating parts of pizzas.

Making a silly excuse for it doesn't help. It just makes him look more ridiculous.
