Yup Dr. Oatker thin crust changed the frozen pizza game forever. Their thin crust is very manageable you actually taste the sauce and the toppings more than the crust itself. My favorite is the one with the provolone cheese.

I kind of miss the old nofrills rectangular pizzas, the ones that used to come wrapped up in plastic. I don't remember their name. Were they made by president's choice?

There seems to be a single serve pizza trend

I dunno what's the benefits of "pan" pizza (other than the included pan ie. more landfill)

During this pandemic why aren't any of these frozen pizzas being sold on sale for $3 bucks as usual?

Saw people wearing masks lining up at my No Frills today, so I decided to skip the grocery store and I just walked over to the nearby Little Caesars to grab a $6 medium pepperoni pizza instead.

Ppl should consider making your own "frozen pizza".

Buy Rivah (Blue packaging) Naan at Costco - IIRC $4 for 10 [40 cents each]
sauce, cheese, pepperoni/whatever topping you like.
Total cost might be $1.50 maybe.

Freeze and package. Cook in frying pan with lid on or oven.

I make frypan pizzas (whatever leftover meats/veggies you have plus sauce and cheese) quite often like this for quick WFH lunch.
We're all bozos on the bus until we find a way to express ourselves...

Failure is always an option...just not the preferred one!

I heard their cheesecakes were literally inedible though? I think many are comparing them to a New York style cheesecake. If I had to guess this is probably more in like with those cheaper alternatives you see at No Frills or the like. Or perhaps even the Sara Lee ones.

The PC cheesecakes were actually decent, but gone are the days when you would find them on sale for $5. I think the cheapest I've seen is $7. I suppose for $7 you could make your own at home for around that price, maybe a bit more, but you'd be getting twice as much (not including the cost of running the oven). One thing I never found online was if it were possible to make a a Kit Kat cheesecake, but I suppose if you put whole sticks in the middle of the cheese cake batter the heat would melt the chocolate and then it would cause the wafers to become soggy. Guess one could just garnish with Kit Kats.

As for the thread question, I miss the old McCain Crescendo Rising Crust pizzas. I loved their sauce as it was on the sweeter side, and the cheese was usually good. Pity they sold off their pizza line to Dr. Oetker's and they turned it into the Guiseppe line.

Most frozen pizzas don't use enough cheese for my preference. I'll usually add a bit more.

I miss the Kirkland Pepperoni Rising Crust pizzas. I liked that they gave you slices as well as the diced pepperoni. I wish they would bring them back.

That's because there have been many changes in frozen pizza since 2013. Why Delissio is still the only choice for frozen Vegetarian rising crust pizza, I'll never know...

Many forums, including RFD, have options where you can change the number of posts per page. It sounds like you have it on the default if you're seeing 20 pages. I'm seeing 8 pages because I have my settings at 40 posts per page. It makes reading threads a lot easier when you're not always clicking to the next/previous page.

Delissio has these new "singles" pizzas, looks like 2 X 6" pizzas to a box for $5.99 regular price. https://www.madewithnestle.ca/delissio/ ... ssed-pizza

Given the same width of crust, the smaller the pizza, the greater % of area is crust vs splitting a normal-sized pizza. This is for people who can't get along well enough to share a pizza, and would eat more crust to spite the other?

Can't microwave them.

Expensive.

Not feeling this one.

Frozen Boxed Pizza = Dr Oetker’s
Casa di Mama is our favourite line up
Often though we’ll add on some extra toppings ... Pepperoni, Peppers, Onions, Mushrooms ... whatever we have on hand
And cheese ... we always add extra cheese

Frozen Pizza is ok

But if it ain’t delivery
The next best go to is Homemade Pizza
Easy enough to do ... pizza dough is easy to make
We do a double batch of dough, and freeze one for later

Nice thing about homemade pizza is everyone can dress their own

We cook ours in an electric range ... on a pizza stone
In the summertime, we’ve done them outside on the Gas Grill

I have to say that Delissio won me back. They finally reduce the thickness of their thin crust pizzas and now that 4 meats pizza is delicious.

Delissio now has a pan pizza for $6.99 regular price. Opted to try it and I was not a fan (and I love pan pizza). I found the bottom of the dough to be gritty likely due to flour. Figured I'd mention this in case anyone was considering it.

Even without that gritty issue it was rather mediocre compared to their own lines sadly.

I always go for the Dr. Oetker Giuseppe Pizzeria Deep Dish 4 Cheese pizzas when they go on sale or the Delissio Rising Crust Spicy Chicken Deluxe pizzas.

McCain's pizza making operation was bought out by Oetker a few years back
I believe Oetker rebranded some of the McCain line under they own various lines

You might be able to find a frozen pizza with bacon & sausage so just buy a can of pineapple chunks
