Anyone else prefer a frozen pizza over delivery? Like, taste wise? Like it's better than dominoes or pizza hut.
Local pizza places are usually both cheaper and better than chains, at least in every neighborhood I've lived in. I think they are better than frozen pizzas, but also about 2x the cost. Both vary from place to place though.
Aldi's pizzas are my go-to for value. Usually around $6 a pop now (they were $3.29 pre-pandemic). I add extra cheese and toppings to remind myself I've made it in life.
you know sometimes i forget that pizza chains exist in other countries, here in sweden (and i think generally the nordics) they simply are not a thing because middle eastern immigrants have outcompeted them from the start.
From a blogpost i found there are aparently some 70-ish pizzerias per person in NYC, whereas there are 400+ per person in sweden. It's literally more likely to find a pizzeria in a small village than it is to find a grocery store, and theyr are ALL staffed by people from turkey/syria who are very likely to be family or at least know of each other. They also always serve other stuff like kebab or schnitzel.
It's honestly such a fascinating phenomenon and i'm sad the rest of the world doesn't effectively have pizza as a human right.
There are more pizzerias than people? Or is it 70 people to each pizzeria in NYC and 400 people to each in Sweden? Or like 70 pizzerias to 1000 people?
You go to new York and just immediately get bombarded with pizza, when you get off the plane they put a pizza around your neck.
Sure, but more pizza places than people doesn't seem feasible. It would require something like everyone in NYC works multiple pizzerias by themselves.
looked up the blogpost again and it's per million people
we have kotipizza in finland. it's shit. but it's kinda allright sometimes. I always go to the little places. I even formed a sort of relationahip with one place because I used to go there so often I didn't have to order to get just what I wanted. those little chain free places are special
lol, I wonder how they staff “70-ish pizzerias per person”. That’s one hell of a short-staffed environment! 1/70th of an employee per shop!
This is what I do. Buy a large frozen supreme pizza at the grocery store, then add extra mozarella and other toppings at home before baking.
YES God yes. Sometimes I specifically crave frozen pizza and no delivery pizza or restaurant pizza would fulfill the desire. It can be the other way around, too, I might crave delivery or restaurant pizza. But mostly, if I want pizza, I want the frozen stuff. It's good. It doesn't overdo the cheese/fat or toppings, the size is better, it is more predictable, the crust is must better. There's just something about frozen pizza. 9 out of 10 times I prefer it.
A great trick for delivery/carry out is to heat up and lightly butter a skillet and place your slices in there on medium heat for like 3 to 5 minutes. It makes the crust crispy and the taste like twice as good compared to lukewarm soggy crust.
Thank you for the tip, but tbh I don't want the big crust to be that crispy, then it is just a big dry piece of bread squeaking on my teeth. A soft crust I could kind of swallow but ugh just crust in itself is awful. Usually around here the crust is rather crispy to begin with. I just end up not eating it most of the time.
If you find your brand preference then it’s just better in my opinion
For sure. Mine is tombstone. Their crust is just right for me. Thinner than many, but still not close to a thin crust. If it's lacking in topping or flavors, I can add that on myself.
At least most frozen ones Ive tried are usually terrible. Bready crust and lacking in toppings with a flavorless sauce.
But Ill usually do carry out over delivery.
I add things on, usually. I like tombstone pizzas the most, for the thickness their crust is. Thicker than a thin crust, but still not too thick and bready. I'll sprinkle on some fennel, oregano, garlic powder, crushed red pepper, and often times hot sauce. Then if it's a bit lacking on cheese I'll throw on some shredded mozzarella a few minutes before it's done cooking.
