I bought one of those pizzas once. It was from another supermarket, not Kroger, but it was a refrigerated ready-to-bake pizza that cost five bucks a few years ago. And it was awful. Really bad.
Missed this. O’Fallon, Missouri. I didn’t even realize there’s another O’Fallon on the Illinois side of the river.
I remember the 3 for 5 pizzas that was in the place for odd things usually next to the pudding and biscuits at the store …
the higher end stores do a pretty good pizza now…Costco’s and sams club is better than little Caesars …although these days AV high schools pizza is better …
Sam’s Club pizza had given me the raging squirts. Never again.
I knew someone was going to raise that objection! 
They don’t.
Right on…I wouldn’t want to live in a universe without pizza.
I was not aware of this macho pizza war. Real Chicago-style pizza is a wonderful thing - and even more so if it’s eaten IN Chicago.
Defensive much?
I guess I must be the lone Pizza Hut fan? Maybe it’s just childhood nostalgia. Little Caesar’s isn’t bad either, and their owner was the exact opposite of that asshole, Papa John. Fuck him and his “better ingredients”. The one time I tried PJ’s, I wasn’t impressed. I’d definitely rather have frozen. (Including Jenos)
Yuck – who wants crunchy pizza?
Ever been to Monte Cellos? They’re not bad.
I like Pizza Hut too Guin. I think it’s the best national chain if you like pan pizza.
Little Caesar’s triple pork, BBQ sauce, and on an edible crust was surprisingly good for $9, though not if you expected “pizza.”
It’s far from the best pizza, but it’s ok. I pass a Papa Johns, a Pizza Hut, and a Domino’s on my way home from work.
My usual pizza order is for pick up when on the way to or from work. I stopped ordering from Papa John’s not because of politics but because the delivery drivers insist on blocking the only handicapped ramp. I asked the franchise owner to have a word with his staff, but no luck. I need a walker to get around and will not unduly struggle to get into the Papa Johns when there is no problem at Pizza Hut or Domino’s.
My cane is sometimes my tripod, ensuring that I don’t fall down. Fuck the rest.
Neapolitan pizza? How does that work? Do they divide the circle of the crust into three parallel stripes of chocolate, vanilla, and strawberry, or is it more like a target, with a chocolate outer band, then a vanilla middle band, and a strawberry bullseye?
Or is it one of those weird rectangular pizzas? Then at least the stripes would work.
But whoever thought chocolate, vanilla, and strawberry would be good on a pizza anyway?
Hmm. So they are the Arby’s of fast food pizza, I guess.
I hope you cook it.
As for the crunch, not something I’m looking for in pizza. Reminds me that a local place has a sign that says something like “it’s in the crunch” and I assume that means it’s that weird cracker stuff thats cut into squares.
I’m assuming this might be an Ohio thing or Columbus area specifically, but our Kroger offers Kroger deli pizza as well as both fresh and frozen Donatos take and bake pizza. I don’t like them too much but people around here seem to love that chain. Also, just about every grocery store from Walmart on up has a section of refrigerated pizzas. The Kroger used to even make them to order but not sure if they still do.
But then it wouldn’t be crunchy.
Or unless you don’t want a pizza-maker’s grubby hands to touch your pizza.
I had an evening chat with a co-worker (a recent transplant from Georgia) and she mentioned that she was going to order Domino’s for her and her husband. As we lived in the same neighborhood in NYC I rattled off three or four other places within a few blocks that tasted better than Domino’s.
That didn’t matter. The important thing was that Domino’s wore gloves and the thought of the local pizza guy’s bare skin touching her pizza disgusted her.
Crunchy is good. I’m totally sick of “Chicago Style” meaning far more dough than toppings, as it used to mean dough plus LOTS of toppings so the mess would try to slide apart when you picked it up.
