3 large pizzas (pepperoni and cheese) and 1 order garlic knots from the “local” downtown pizza place last weekend was $89. And I had to drive to pick it up.
With a coupon, the chain places would be less than half for the same amount of pizza.
I fed 10 people with order, so it’s still not that expensive, but I get why people would want to save $40+ ordering from chain places in that situation. My youngest still prefers Papa John’s to the local places.
Do you think your high end pizza is actually better for you? Please tell me how 'high-end' is way better nutritional than the 'garbage'? Same ingredients, right?
No not likely. Unless it explicitly says Cheese its almost certainly reconstituted vegetable fat.
I've lived in small towns and big cities on both coasts and I've traveled all over the country. I can't name a single place where the best pizza option available is Papa Johns, Dominoes, Pizza Hut, etc.
Why does anyone eat this garbage when actual good pizza is available just about anywhere you could possibly be?
Are you insane? You can't beat the dominos deals from a $ perspective.
My wife likes high end pizza but up until about 5 years ago, I would always order the dominos medium deal. I forgot what the price was , but it was insane. It looks like now it's two mediumas for $13.98. So 1 pizza for $20 or two for $14. Which do you want?

He didn't say that "high end pizza is better for you." But higher end pizza more than likely will taste better. That's the point, right?
Face it, if someone is wanting to eat to eat something that is "better for them" or if they want "health food," pizza is not what they'll be eating in the first place.

Sometimes I think rojo is just playing a character to get clicks, but then he busts out something like this and I realize, no, he really is just retarded.
Agree with this. There's a big difference in the quality of cheeses, tomato products, pepperoni, sausage, etc. Grande whole milk mozzarella or mozzarella/provolone blend is going to be a lot better than some crap brand part skim mozzarella. That said, a pound of Grande cheese is going to cost more than a pound of the lower quality brand. Better pepperoni costs more, sausage, etc. There's a reason that some of the chains can sell their pizza at a lower cost and it's because the ingredients are a lower quality.

Lord forbid anyone has different tastes or likes than you I guess.
Pizza in South Florida is horrible. Growing up in the northeast I had great pizza. All the mom and pop places down here are mediocre to bad. The only good pizza that's local is Jet's. They have a Detroit style that's great.
Jet's Detroit style pan is great. They used to just be in Michigan and then they expanded out to Ohio and are now throughout a lot of the Midwest & Southeast. You've got order it so the crust is well done.
In Ohio we have a chain called Donatos that has expanded elsewhere in the Midwest and in the South. They started in Columbus and make what is known as "Ohio style" pizza. A lot of the pizza places that are based in Ohio or just the single mom & pop places use 100% provolone instead of mozzarella. The crusts also tend to be a bit thinner and the pizza is cut in squares instead of triangles. Donatos is also a bit unique because if you order a pepperoni pizza, the entire top is covered with pepperoni. It's still a decent pizza but the quality has slipped a bit since they expanded.

The majority of people are creatures of habit and just stick with an order they know. A lot of people aren’t willing to try something different if they have been eating the same thing year after year.

Because these people probably never had a great slice of pizza from a real local pizzeria and are just settling. Kind of like never having a great bagel then buying Lenders thinking it’s good

Some people just don't know what they're missing. I come from a very Italian, upstate NY area and there are countless locally owned places to get excellent pizza within 3 miles of my house.
When someone from around here orders Dominos or Papa John's I can't believe it.

Dude is from Dallas and exhibits little to no genuine curiosity, so it tracks. Hell, his vocabulary ("insane") is that of a middle school kid. I would NEVER expect someone like that to appreciate fine quality food of ANY cuisine. Probably a big fan of Panda Express and Chipotle, as well.
I lived in NYC for a long time. Became addicted to Sicilian slices. Moved to a small town in the middle of nowhere. I've tried every pizza joint in town, one is good enough to eat semi-regularly. Everything else is incredibly bad. I don't know how they're so bad at it. Dominoe's or Pizza Hut or whatever is legitimately the second best option we have.
Anyway, we make pizza a lot more often now. It's a lot of fun. Takes practice to make and form a good dough.
Let me guess - you don't have kids? You make a lot of money? (Or a spendthrift and make decent money but have no savings?)
Our family of five does pizza once a week. It's a break from cooking and preparing food and cleanup for my husband and I. We typically do Papa John's. I am very sick of Papa John's but it's the only affordable pizza nearby in our VHCOLA. It costs us around $25 - and we always pick up, because it's cheaper. Delivery is closer to $45.
Even Mod Pizza will cost us around $60. Literally ANY other pizza place locally costs us $50 or more. And I'm talking pick-up, not delivery. That's an extra $25 - $35 per week, or $100 - $150 a month. Sometimes you just have to save a little money. Occasionally we splurge, but usually we keep it simple and cheap and do PJ's.
NYC has excellent cheap pizza. My husband is from NYC so we go there occasionally, and the pizza is amazing. But for the other 99.9% of the country, those cheap delicious options don't necessarily exist. They definitely do not exist where I live. Literally everything non-chain is fantastically expensive.
