I worked at the Hut and at Domino's for a while.
Pizza Hut pan pizza was frozen then cooked in oil. Domino's was delivered every other day in 'fresh balls of dough' which were kneaded in cornflour then baked in a gas 'staging' oven (same as almost all chain pizza sheds).
I am a fan of the Pizza GoGo 'Alligator' pizza on occasion which is a heart attack in a box

In an ideal world we would be dining outside in independently run pizza shops offering a sour dough base cooked in wood fired oven. However the pizza chains are not the same
Would need to check the calorie counts between the pizza sheds

I honestly don't think pizza needs to be unhealthy.

It’s better if it is though

I disagree. It's about portion control, thin base (which tbf is much nicer than deep pan anyway), and more tomato sauce/veg topping than cheese. Serve with a salad.

Fuck off with that salad!

Oh god you'll be advocating having 5 chips sprayed with a micro-coating of olive oil and baked in the oven instead of going to the chippy next, don't be so joyless.

I don't think it's joyless at all. I actually prefer food that is at least semi-healthy - the fresh taste of veg (with some carbs and fat) rather than a meal drowned in fat is a win for me.
The deep pan pizza covered with meat and cheese is more an American thing than an Italian thing AFAIK.

Post a photo of a pizza or leave the thread.
I think you'll find I did on the last page.

Tesco special one? Dunno if I was impressed with that combo.
Yeah, that is the one.
Pimped it up with some olive oil, spinach and herbs. Pinch of chilli atop.
I am disinterested in this fasr food you speak of
Don't get that to be honest. A decent pizza oven makes a huge difference. Although i generally do defer to the homemade or shop brought these days.

You seem to have been short-changed there with only half a pizza.

certainly the case with pizzas, less is moreYou seem to have been short-changed there with only half a pizza.

Some dodgy takeaways just look like an average shop.

but they're not. a shop-bought pizza is a pizza bought in a shop

I've tried the Sains fresh pizza counter and they do OK veggie ones with plenty of sweetcorn. It's decades since I've had a chain pizza so I can't really compare, but I always think they're a bit shit in comparison other pizzas you can buy in the shops.

I'm not really in favour of pizza with just creamy/cheesy stuff on top. Really needs an intense hit of that tomato sauce IMO.

I thought you were northern. Don’t you like to call a retail outlet a retail outlet?

I’ve heard tell of these burnt pizza bases. No doubt it’ll arrive here eventually. But at least give me a couple of years that I can laugh at Londoners.
