At least once or twice in your life, you've taken a crumpled Lincoln and some change and strolled into Little Caesars to get one of their Hot-N-(maybe)Ready pepperoni pizzas.

Well, all good things must come to an end, and the Detroit-based pizza chain announced that it would be increasing the price of its Hot-N-Ready pizza, making the new price $5.55.

The Hot-N-Ready was introduced in 2001 and for the last 20 years, managed to remain affordable for two decades at $5.

Little Caesars is making nice by saying it'll add 33% more pepperoni to the large pizza.

Twitter users took to the social media site to share their opinions on the pie, many blaming inflation and capitalism, others blaming Joe Biden.
