Which do you like best or do you do both? If you say story bought, then which brand and how do you bake it? If you say delivery, then who is your favorite and do you call it in or place order online?
I really like ordering from Pizza Hut, Papa Johns, or Cassano's. I can order online and pay buy credit card. I do love store bought. Totino's makes a good cheap one. I just got 10/$6 of mini meatball tonight. I bake it straight on the metal on 400 degrees for 20 minutes or so.

When I was a kid I used to bake the frozen pizza my Mom bought when we got it from the grocery store. I shared it and thought this was terrific. I looked forward to Friday night. When I was an adult and started having pizza at restaurants I absolutely loved pizza at any where I got it but I just couldn't eat frozen store bought pizza after eating the real thing. I had pizza from Papagino's, Pizza Hut, Domino's, and local Pizza places and had pizza delivered which is always good because you don't have to go out. I love pizza, thanks for the question.

I don't think my comment came out right. I am one of 5 kids. My MOM cooked all week and on fridays we got to choose a fast food place. It was like a reward for the whole week. Pizza or burgers were a treat then. I hope I didn't upset. I gave you another +.

I always liked delivery until I found the stuff crust cheese Djorno. I also have a problem these days getting anything from a resturant, I get sick often when I eat out. I want to know who is preparing my food and if they are working sick. So, I go for store bought more now.

Those pizzas are good. We have some in our freezer now. I think sick employees might be a problem anywhere. At least you figured it out. I gave you a + for replying.

For some reason I cannot cook frozen, store bought pizzas. They either turn out burnt on the bottom or soggy on top. I'm going to blame my oven but I'm pretty sure that it is just my lack of cooking knowledge.
And for that reason, I'm going to have to say delivery. Delivery is also much more convinient for me and it saves time. I haven't tried ordering pizza online yet though that is an excellent idea as one can avoid the "on hold" time when calling during peak hours.

YES, I never get put on hold when I order online. I get to order extra dipping sauces from Papa Johns. It is so much easier. It has to be your oven. It probally just doesn't like to cook pizza.

I like delivery best but also like store bought.Favorites are Pizza Hut all meat, East of Chicago and Mary's Pizza(local).For store bought Totino's is a good brand , I like the hamburg one .Digornios is a good one. Usually just pepperoni , sometimes hanburg or sausage.

I don't think I have ever been to a East of Chicago. I have heard of them. Do you recomend them? Totino's is a good brand for families on a budget. LOL

I like pizza delivery rather then store bought frozen pizza. I haven't been able to find a frozen pizza brand that all of us like. We usually order pizza from our little local pizza place. They are only about 1 mile from our house, so I call and place the order and then pick it up about 15 minutes later. Once in awhile we will let them deliver, but I don't mind picking up since it's so close to home.

We live really close to a lot of pizza places that deliver. I just don't drive. I have noticed that the places we order from the most deliver faster. 15 minutes for a pizza is great.
I love your AV, BTW.
Thanks for replying.

There is no doubt in my mind that delivery is better than store bought pizza. I absolutely love our local pizza places, but do eat Pizza Hut from time to time. The best frozen pizzas when I have to eat them are lean cuisines or diGiorno....Let me be completely forthcoming in saying that I rarely turn any pizza away.

I agree. I will try any pizza once. DiGiorno does make a great pizza. Sometimes with 3 kids under the age of 13, it is nice to have some really cheap pizza to make them in the house.
Thank You for replying.
