What's the best pizza you can buy in a shop

Metalface Mark · 15 Feb 2011 at 16:15

It can be either a supermarket made one, frozen in a box, or ordered from a chain.

Ive never been a fan of anything frozen, but im sure there must be a pizza out there that can prove me wrong!

I like the pizza express ones that come in a blue box from sainsburys, but in fairness, any of them that aren't frozen, even the "fresh" ASDA ones are alright.

Freezing them just ruins them from what I can tell.

The Chicago Town takeaway ones are nice, you cook them from a cold oven for some reason but they come out yummo. They're something stupid like 1600 calories though.

Edit: it was Chicago Town not Goodfellas, noticed when krooton said it

Chicago Town Takeaway Stuffed Crust

I like the ones they make in Morrisons.

I've never understood why they stuff the crust with tomato, it's just weird.

Pizza Express from Sainsbury's or Adsa's own freshmade instore ones are best.

Those Goodfellas ones advertised as being better than Dominos are pretty good! I also find the Ristorante ones by Dr Oetker are passable. The Chicago Town deep dish pizzas are quite good too, if you don't mind their being quite small.

The limited edition football pizzas CT Pizza did back in Summer. OMFG tasty as !!

I miss pizza

I think I must be the only person in the world who doesn't like Pizza Express pizzas. The Dr. Oetker ones are the best imo, but I think they're loaded with salt.

Cos crusts are usually dry and boring and usually discarded. I always ate the crusts anyway but damn they even better with some sauce in.

Takeaway: Mighty Meaty, Heavenly Pizzas, Kintore, Aberdeenshire.

Those are the Chicago Town Takewaway ones, not Goodfellas.

I have never liked them when I tried them in the restaurant, I must say.

I understand the stuffed crust principle, but more tomato? Jesus, there is enough on the pizza as it is.

I tried the Pizza Hut garlic butter stuffed crust last week, that was disappointing as well.

The CT Takeaway one's are also nice.

krooton · 15 Feb 2011 at 16:25

Oh, and best takeaway is South of the Border from Snappy Tomato Pizza, yum!

My flat mate bought two Tesco Finest pizzas, tomato and mozarella or something, well within the sell by date by about 3 or 4 days. Got them home, checked the top and all the tomatoes and other veg had bacteria fluff all over them.

Tesco were pretty good though and refunded both pizzas and gave them 2 more pizzas (checked for quality too) haha
