Medium's are definitely 12"? Are the large's 14"?

Isn't the proportion of crust greater on a medium?

(Of course, Pizza Pizza already has overly big crusts (untopped) on all their pizzas.)

So, while it seems, medium x2 = 24 inch, but with a lot of crust. The XL is 16 inch, but maybe with more cheese and more Pepperoni...?

The slice might have been sitting all day, while the medium pizza is actually made fresh!
You can build a whole "fresco" pizza with three toppings and a drink and dipping sauce for about 7-8 bucks. Buying a single slice there is the biggest ripoff.

Gee you can also buy frozen pizza at the grocery store for an average (regular retail) price of $7.99 (most often on sale for less...)
The best part is, no tax on frozen pizza!! (In Ontario)

$5 for a fresh pizza is one of the best fast food deals around.

Sure, but they should also allow extra toppings for a dollar each. That would be nice. A 3 topping medium pizza for $6.99 would be great!

I think you'd have to try quite a few locations before you get good pizza from Pizza Pizza. Not worth it.

SERIOUSLY. I've said it before and I will say it again. Go to Bathurst and Bloor. Order a Pizza there. Then go to Spadina and Bloor and order a pizza there.
They may both may read "Pizza Pizza" on their sinage, but one of them clearly shouldn't be allowed to keep that name.
Too many differences between the two Pizza Pizzas. So far, I like the Pizza Pizza @ Spadina and Bloor much better.

Because they fail to hire employees from within to pose as customers and eat at all the Pizza Pizza locations? (randomly selected ones, at least)

+1

The reason why the individual slices tastes like cardboard is because they reheat the slices again and so the "cardboard" taste you get is the burnt bottom of the pizza crust which tastes hard.
Pizza tastes good after it's immediately taken out of the oven not whenit is reheated.

Nothing wrong with that opinion, in fact, I think it's a good one...except for one minor detail...If I can't eat the whole medium pizza in one sitting, a slice or two the next day actually DOES taste good either cold or reheated in the microwave.
