Frozen Pizza?

It must have been at least 10 years since I ate my last frozen pizza. If I eat so many calories I want something better.

Here it's not just the calories its the sodium. The brand I used to buy (Tombstone) has 3400mg of sodium in a single pizza. Which I can eat in a sitting.

Appropriately named.

Just to get it out of the way, my favorite frozen pizza is Home Run Inn. I love the thin-crust sausage pizza.

But, I've heard good things about California Pizza Kitchen, so I thought I'd give it a try. I put one onto my last "Amazon Fresh" delivery last week. A thin-crust "four cheese" pizza.

Without my approval they substituted this:

I thought I'd give it a shot...

Wow! Was it horrible!

Three for $5.

It's what you feed small grandchildren.

I just saw this:

4 ½ stars out of 27K reviews?

Really?

[Mik]

every piece of crap on the internet has four plus stars these days.

Thin-crust pizza is for girly-men.

Really

There's a whole industry of buying 5 Star reviews.

Well, pass me my purse and skirt, dear.

The crust is merely a vehicle for transporting all the other goodies - sausage, pepperoni, 'shrooms, peppers, onions, and, of course bacon.

And cheese...

Why fill your tummy with those useless carbs when there's MEAT to be eaten?

No, it ain't. It's a matter of contrast. The crust is an integral and essential part of the magnificent whole.

I'm with Cats. If the crust isn't great the pizza sucks. It's kind of like you know you've grown up when you realize you like the cake better than the frosting.

I was never a huge pizza fan until I moved to the Gold Coast for medical school and training. Gino's East was just down the street from school and the dorm. When Mrs. George and I lived there for 3 years, it was still in the neighborhood.

Somehow that that thick, chewy, cornbread crust from Gino's turned me off to thick crust pizza.

I like "pan" pizza, and I will eat thick crust, if there's no option. When we order in, I get a "baby thin" garbage pizza and Mrs. George gets a "baby thick". Both with extra cheese, of course.

I have no issue with thin crust and Chicago Deep Dish usually sits on my tummy like a huge rock. Prefer Detroit style pan pizza.
