So they didn't end up winning the restaurant wars after all.
They only won that in the non US version. Here in the US it was Taco Bell
Guys guys relax
Taco Bell and Pizza Hut are both owned by the same corporate conglomerate that owns Pepsi, KFC, and every other fast food chain that only serves Pepsi.
The reference is to a old action movie called Demolition Man. In the movie there was only one restaurant that survived the franchise wars. In the US it was Taco Bell and in Europe it was Pizza hut.

You don't know how to use the three shells, admit it
I'm not telling you. You can figure it out yourself.
TIL
(European here, obviously)
Pepsi sold them off a long time ago.
