I will eat a pizza out of convenience
Purely due to it being a ten minute affair
when I'm doing stupid hours like now
but I certainly wouldn't coff up £20 + to have one delivered or go to a chain for one (Unless with kids)
Maximum spend £2 from Aldi or Asda.:-(

The Pizza Hut chain is a joke. It inflates prices to a stupid amount and then does special offers.

The list price really is absurd. It's more than a reasonable gastro pub meal.

You then end up with 2 pizzas and some very cold wedges or some other processed rubbish for the list price of 1 pizza.

If you only want 1 pizza it's bad news.

My favourite food is now heavily salted mass-produced gunk.

Apparently having a pizza oven in your back garden is the latest must have. My favourite would have to be nasi goreng, an Indonesian fried rice dish.

If you are talking inflated prices then look no further than Pizza Express.

Scandalous.

Pistachio ice cream (New Forest ice cream especially)

Pistachio ice cream has always been my favourite until i had home made Turkish delight ice cream the other week, it was amazing. I would eat a good hot curry every single day, and pickled eggs but I don't think neither my family our toilet could cope with the aftermath!

Oh, meant to add, last time I went to Pizza Express I went just for a Margherita but with an extra topping.

Went for mushroom. It was £1.55 and no word of a lie it was one baby button mushroom chopped up. Definitely no more than one single tiny mushroom. I was so gobsmacked when I saw it I pieced it together to see just how small it was.

Has anyone had a Costco pizza? We get them often and they are great, and only cost a couple of quid.

Nope.

Aldi has done some very good pizzas in the past and they are very reasonably priced.

I find Aldi very good for most things, I always get the 28 day matured ribeye steaks (about £3.50) and I cook them on my griddle, they are far better than steaks you pay £20 - £30 for in restaurants.

The ready cooked ones!? A woman in my office went & got 2 as she was leaving, it was 5 minutes from Costco to work and in the time she got the pizzas back to the offices the grease had seeped through the thick cardboard box the pizzas had pretty much fallen through, I had one slice and thought I had eaten a kilo of lard, makes me heave at the thought just when I hear the word Costco!

No, not the ready cooked ones, the square ones they make in the bakery and you cook at home.

Buy one get one free all day every day at Dominos if you collect. It is quite surprising the amount of people who are not aware of that.

If you're going down the pizza route, get BBQ sauce on the base rather than standard tomato sauce.....it's living the pizza dream

Yes, par boil then fryer, cream sauce is fried onions in Worcester sauce with a touch of brandy, then single cream and chopped parsley all in the pan you've just cooked the steak in.

Cracks 2 eggs into a bowl with some butter and black pepper whisks it together, pours it over the spuds and mashs them
It sounds horrific but tastes great

My sister in law made it, ingredients are, clear cane sugar syrup, clotted cream, milk, rose extract (or rose water) chunks of good Turkish delight and a small amount of pink colouring. No fancy machine required, just mix and pop in the freezer for about 2 hours.

I don't like pizza in this country. The cheese is rubbery. The pizza's are bland. And they are greasy.

But when I go to Italy I love pizza Even the base tastes much better. I have never had a bad pizza in Italy. But saying that I don't go to the same places as the tourists. I prefer to rent a villa in the middle of nowhere. We do as the natives do.

I have had bad pizzas in Italy and I have had fantastic pizzas in this country and also in the States.

Depends where you go.

In Italy I have been to Ferrara, Bologna, Venice, Florence and Rome and been off the beaten track.

Yep.

My missus is like that. I will say it is buy one get one free and she will reply with 'We only need the one!'

She has obviously never heard of freezing, or the fridge.

And she is absolutely correct. It's really "Buy one, get another one you don't need".
