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.

Cheese, garlic and herbs are what should be in stuffed crusts.

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.

Nope, I also think they're rubbish.The one i got came with a few little blocks of cheese rattling about in the box

. Tasted very bland.

Oh I concur, but it's that they haven't made a good recipe for it, it's too cheesy with not enough garlic and it doesn't ooze out like it should.

Giant Asda ones made in store. For £3 you can't go wrong.

Yep what you end up with is a pizza which is overloaded with bitter tomato.. rather mank. Really not sure why they thought stuffing the crust with cheese wasn't a good idea :confused:

Snappy Tomato Pizza have, but fresh pizzas only.

personally those thin Dr. Oetke ristorante (sp?) ones, cheese and pepperoni, no random crap.

Really thin and crispy.

Did anyone else used to like those Tesco/Asda value 10 mini pizzas? they were god like :cool:

.

Now they taste horrible, from both stores. They now have a dusting of cheese and just dont taste anything like they did, bad times

. I used to like cooking 2 of them and making a pizza sarny by sticking them together lol.

Everyone used to eat them when I was at Uni but I never liked them personally.

You’re not the only one, the shop ones are horrible and only the real thing will do. I like the Waitrose Spicy Pepperoni pizza.

Seriously?

I had a domino's pizza meat feast with BBQ base and the sauce just over powered everything else. Even my drink...

Never again I think I will just stick too BBQ sauce in a pot and dip.

Agree. It's too sweet and makes the rest of the pizza unpalatable. On the other hand, their garlic and herb dip is superb!

Papa Johns do this very well, but it does definitely vary a lot. Pizza I used to order a lot with mates: BBQ base, BBQ chicken, bacon, mushrooms

Herbies do the best bread IMO, I have had a lot of pizzas and like biscuits, I have developed a PizzaSense (tm).

Herbies bread and spices really are good!

Pizza Hut's bread is far too salty and Dominos if you're a commoner and don't mind bland taste

commoner? lolsnob >_<
