What do you think of frozen pizzas? Are they the devil's work, or sent from heaven?

God of Thunder

Frozen Pizzas are the best.

I know they don't hold a candle to the real thing, but I get cravings for them all the time. They are great for a quick meal.

Quick and cheap. Awesome when I only have 15 minutes to make something, eat it, and run out the door.

They're great. Except when the middle isn't cooked enough and it's still kinda doughy, that makes me sick.

Buy a frozen pizza on special, add sauce, herbs, mushrooms, ham, pineapple, capsicum, whatever you like until it's a hundred feet tall, and top it with mountains of cheese. Ten minutes in the oven and I dare you to find better!

Nay. It only takes 5 or ten more minutes to start from scratch. Then you spend less money and get a better pizza. Just taught my spawn how to make homemade pizza this weekend.

bleh. If you think frozen pizza is good, I'm afraid you haven't tried to make your own from scratch. It's easy, fast, cheaper, and a hell of a lot better.
If you refuse to make the dough, at least buy a Boboli crust and add your own ingredients.

Nah, they suck. And they're pretty artificial; food technologists have to do a lot to make a frozen pizza crust taste like the real thing. You're talking robo-food here.

Like spick said, buy a boboli. Many independent bakeries also make pizza cruz/bread thingies that you can top with your own stuff and cook in the oven just about as quickly. And a much better product, too. I eat boboli-based pizzas often.

I modify my frozen pizzas when I get them, although it takes about the same time, sometimes it is easier to to add some shredded cheese, artichoke hears, olives to a frozen, rather than make from scratch.
Scratch is better, but from making dough to serving can take awhile.

It's not as good as making your own (I have a deep dish pizza recipe floating around on here somewhere, but it's too early in the morning to go find a link for it), but you can't beat them for convience factor when you just don't have time to cook. Staple of college existence.

"freshetta" is the best frozen one otu there

VF19

Once in a while I make my own, but my problem is the dough contracts. so I end up with a 5" thick pizza.

thingstodo

I like them from scratch, and use a bread maker to whip up the dough, or use the frozen dough. Frozen Cal. Pizza Kitchen pizzas rock.

The only reason I voted yes was for Tony's brand pizza and the little rectangle, schoo-like pizzas you can ocassionally find. They are so good!!
Other than those, I'm not a fan of frozen pizza.

I enjoy my cheapass Jacks pizza. It's gotta be cooked slighty crispy though.

I make my own pizzas more often than I buy frozen ones. The dough and everything.
My favourite is as thus:
Tomato purée
Quality ham
Artichoke hearts
Black olives - no stones
Cheese - and lots of it

Mmmmm... now I'm all hungry.

NbCal

Mama Celeste is the only brand of frozen pizza's that I will eat really, which is very rare. Bagel Bites aren't bad either.

Daval

sometimes as a quick meal for my daughter I'll make her a pizza from scratch using a fajita bread type deal - A little tomato sauce, mushrooms and salami and then loaded with cheese - they're actually really good.

When I do buy a frozen pizza i only buy a 'presidents choice' - i think its only available in Canada. I don't like any of the others.

It depends on the brand and what I'm craving.

Nay...

I have eaten them before, but frankly, homemade is of a different and far more superior essence...

Jadey

Hell yes. Pizza anyway is good. Restaurant pizza is the best, but frozen is a great alternative. Also homemade is great.

Haven't you ever heard the saying "Pizza is just like sex, even when it's bad it's still pretty good."

Rubyee

They are good. It is simple to see why they taste good, too. When you make a frozen pizza, you lower your expectations a little. Then, when you eat it, it meets those lowered expectations, so that you are pleasantly pleased.

I like the Totino's party pizzas. They are nothing like a real pizza, but for $1 and ten minutes, they suffice nicely.

I used to eat them all the time when I was a kid. I don't know, frozen food like that is amazing when you're a kid, but now I think I prefer meals I don't have to nuke.

5-10 more minutes more? what's your recipe??

Quick tip:

Go to your local hardware store and get several 6" UNGLAZED terra cotta floor tiles, put them on the rack of your oven. (Mine takes 6, (3 tiles by 2 tiles)) This is the LEAST expensive and BEST pizza stone that you have ever used. Preheat your oven 5-10 minutes longer then you usually do, and put the pizza DIRECTLY on the stones.

Oh.. ..it's soooo good...

chavos

they're tasty, healthy, reasonably priced options, for my lazy side.

the rest of me usually wants better.

Phaenx

Pizza? Healthy? Whaaaaa-t??

Boy they taste pretty good, but make me fat.

The individual deep dish pizzas rock. The best are the ones made by Red Baron and Tonys. Yum

la petite moi

I hate pizza anyway!

Yalaynia

I like frozen pizza's. I usually load them up with my own stuff though. Just extra cheese, bacon , olives , onions, green pepper. You are right for saying it doesnt hold a candle to the real thing. But for a quick fix they are great.

Thanks for reminding me of their existence...used to eat them all the time. I forget wich brand, but after it cooked, the crust on the bottom was paper thin and crunchy, like old pizza hut thin n crispy.

Also good are those small, greasy, ravioli-sized bitches stuffed with pizza filling, that give you 2nd degree burns when you bite into them. Forgot their name...worth the burn though..

santafe5000

Frozen Pizza is pretty good, especially if it is the local made up and frozen type. Some of the national brands are ok, but some taste like cardboard.
