      Not even the mix. It’s so expensive for what it is.

      flour, shortening, salt, sugar and baking powder. Add cheese to he mix, bake. Then literally soak them in garlic butter when they are done. Whole thing takes maybe 30 minutes.

        Then make it from scratch. It’s not that hard and better than restaurants. And yes, my homemade pizza is better than delivery too, since I take the time to let the dough sit for a few days to develop flavor and use higher quality toppings than the average pizza shop.

          All I can say to someone who says to me things like, “it’s not that hard and better than restaurants” is that they are a far better cook than me or anyone I’m related to.

            That’s what the boxed mix is for…people that need everything measured out and as simple as possible. And pretty soon that may be all you can get. So you’re either going to have to give them up, or get better at cooking. I’d suggest getting better at cooking. It really makes life easier, or at least tastier.

            Then it will still taste good but it just won’t be as tasty as it could be. Patience and planning makes for great pizza, but even thrown together pizza is still better than frozen.

              Haha, I was being sarcastic. I used to run a bread bakery. We’d slow ferment our sourdough over three days. There’s nothing like a good, fresh bread.

        Fuck no I’m not. Frozen is never as good as freshly baked. But going to red lobster for the biscuits is like buying an airline for free peanuts
