Gather Round the Good Stuff

Well, first and foremost, I will let everybody know that I am a cook at Pizza Hut (actually I am at work right now), and have been for more than a year and a half. I have seen everything there is to see with pizza. Right now, we are running a special on the delicious, but ridiculously hard to make Cheesybite Pizza (seriously, you have to do so much work to make this crust). Anyhow, this is a pizza substitute for the Stuffed Crust pizza, and I got to thinking about supply and demand yesterday at work. Since we are running the special on the limited time only Cheesybite Pizza, there is quite a large demand for this pizza. But, since it is a substitute for the stuffed crust, the quantity supplied for the stuffed crust has decreased, and the quantity supplied for the Cheesybite Pizza increased (technically, it didn't increase since we didn't have it a week ago, and it is a limited time only kind of deal, but since it came from nowhere, i.e 0, I would think that it is technically increasing). However, many people like to eat their Cheesybite pizza with dipping sauce like garlic, ranch, marinara, or blue cheese, there is now a higher quantity demanded for these sauces due to the complementary item (Cheesybite pizza). I guess I'm an econ nerd, just like beth ;), but while I was at work yesterday, making the ridiculously redundant Cheesybite pizzas, I just kept thinking, AP ECON!! AP ECON!!! SUPPLY and DEMAND! But, since I'm on my little blog here, is this right, it would be an increse in quantity supply and quantity demanded right?
Thank Goodness for Pizza Hut!!
