Pizza Hutt is Jabba The's cousin. Pizza Hut is the restaurant chain to which you refer.

Is Pizza Hutt a knock off of Pizza Hut, like the fake apple stores?

No, just my memory of how to spell it being wrong!

Whereas here in Ireland, Pizza Hut has joined forces with Supermac's, an Irish chain which is in the McDonald's/Burger King kind of space. Most (maybe all) are Supermac's/Pizza Hut combined.

Pizza Hut (and papa johns) are sit-down restaurants in Nicaragua. You can even get stuffed crust on personal sized pizzas, which historically is not possible in the US.
