Pizza Hut uses silicone-based (adulterated) "Pizza cheese"
January 2006 Issue No. 318
Feature Story: Silicone Based Chemical in Pizza Hut's Cheese (p. 1):
The Milkweed [magazine] detailed how Pizza Hut restaurants illegally claim
to use pure "Mozzarella cheese" on certain menu items, when in fact, Pizza
Hut's "Pizza Cheese" does not conform to FDA standards for the
identification of Mozzarella cheese.
Read January's feature story at the url below detailing how Pizza Hut's
cheese supplier "Leprino Foods" uses a silicone-based industrial chemical
in the patented manufacturing of the product.

Wikipedia defination of Silicone:
Silicones are odorless, colorless, water resistant, chemical resistant,
oxidation resistant, stable at high temperature, and do not conduct
electricity. They have many uses, such as lubricants, adhesives, sealants,
gaskets, breast implants, dishware, Silly Putty, and many other products.
Due to their thermal stability and relatively high melting and boiling
points, silicones are often used where organic polymers are not applicable.
Silicone is often mistakenly referred to as "silicon". Although
silicones contain silicon atoms, they are not made up exclusively of
silicon, and have completely different physical characteristics from
elemental silicon.

This is a reply to # 589,065I think it's only fair to post the link to the follow-up. The company that makes Pizza Hut's cheese says in a letter to "The Milkweed" that it is not using silicone in it's cheese now. "The Milkweed" says "Pizza Cheese" is "cleaned up" according to it's makers.

"The Milkweed" does seem to say that it's possible the cheese once had the silicone in it for public consumption, even if they aren't using it now. I think it's an important reminder to check labels often as companies are always changing formulas. I know this is harder to do for restaurants, but more and more are putting their nutrition information and ingredient lists online and it would seem a good idea to take a look before deciding where to eat out.
At the Pizza Hut website
http://www.pizzahut.com/Files/PDF/ph_ingredients.pdf
it lists the ingredients for pizza cheese:
Part skim mozzarella cheese (pasteurized milk, cheese cultures, salt, enzymes), modified food starch, whey protein concentrate, non- fat milk, sodium propionate (added as a preservative).
CONTAINS: MILK
compare to packaged Kraft shredded cheese:

Then look at Horizon Organic shredded cheese:
