Yeah, I like pizza enough I'll eat it if it's offered; it vies with shrimp for my favorite food. (Shrimp is the only non-kosher food I'm unwilling to stop eating.) Pizza Hut's likewise my favorite chain but I sorely miss the local pizza place I had in Florida. The last time I was in Pensacola, we ordered an extra pizza simply to pack in the cooler and bring home to freeze. I made it last nearly a year. Though there is a local chain that's a close second in quality.

(And now my mouth is watering because we're having pizza for dinner!)

My assumption is that the cheap food is just that: cheap with the lowest quality ingredients and such they can get away with.
