      Ironically, the energy drinks are basically a side business for Red Bull.

          It must be. Ask yourselves, how many cans of Red Bull do you see during the week, and how many Red Bull sponsored randomness dit you see?

            Well that doesn’t work for Little Caesars. The pizza is well known to be the side business, but I couldn’t tell you which trucks are theirs. They’re a distribution company that happens to sell pizza that they claim is fresh made, but I still suspect is made from frozen dough. I see the pizza stores all over the place.

              Yeah but little Caesars doesn’t sponsor nearly every single extreme sport on planet earth and they don’t sell their pizza internationally.

              Red Bull sponsors, Car racing (F1, Supercars, etc) Aircraft comps (STOL, extreme stunts) snowboarding and many many more. They have their own YouTube channels for their sports. Honestly if you want to see some insane shit, chances are it’s got red bull stamped on it somewhere.

              Why does it have to be frozen? (1) fridge trucks are a thing , but (2) making pizza dough isn’t a huge deal. Heck, Cici’s make theirs fresh in-store, and that’s CICIs

                In my experience, dough that is frozen reacts the same way that Little Caesars and Pizza Hut dough does. I know for a fact that Pizza Hut freezes their dough, puts it into a proofer to thaw and proof their dough, and it ends up with a similar texture to Little Caesars dough.

                Agreed, making dough isn’t an issue. Most of the pizza shops and chains I worked in had never frozen dough. Pizza Hut ships frozen dough pucks that cook in a similar fashion to Little Caesars, leading me to believe that they also cook reconstituted frozen dough.

      Honestly, they don’t do those well either. I’d prefer Red Bull to keep arranging those Xtreme events that doesn’t have a leg to stand on otherwise, like Crashed Ice, or Slopestyle rollercoaster skateboarding.
