I don't have strong opinions either way. Whether it's franchise or corporate, their natural evolution is toward meh. I will however patronize some small, local, private chains.
I used to like Pizza Hut. And then Pepsico bought it. They cashed in big time on its real estate value. And made it into gross fast food, leasing floor space inside Target stores or combining it into their other chains. If I see a rare, free-standing Pizza Hut on a road trip, it's usually still a pretty good chain meal experience for me.
