I only buy pizza from supermarkets (Asda or Morrisons), but don't buy their own brand. My fav is Chicago Town's Edge To Edge range, which is filled....from edge to edge. Bloody gorgeous!
I really love them but Asda stopped selling them and I can't find them anymore they really were good pizzas after a long day.
There used to be some frozen pizzas that 'rose' in the oven which were quite nice, but they don't seem to be around any more. Unfortunately most pizzas are awful now with really cardboardy bases.
Home made is great, but too much much of a hassle for me.
What if you are already in the supermarket and decide that you fancy a pizza? How do you get the breadmaker to put the ingredients into itself and start to prepare dough and how do you get the hob to make the tomato sauce?
I though the point of the thread was that the OP was out shopping and decided to buy a pizza for tea but was dissapointed with the result. The question was why can't the supermarkets do better?
Chicago Town 'takeaway' pizzas are lovely and I agree with a few people who have suggested Asda's where you make your own. They tend to put plenty of toppings on (or at least they do if you know the girl behind the counter ) I also love the Pizza Express pizzas.
I've recently started making my own pizzas and I love it! I have just been buying the topping sauce from asda tho! It's cheap enough to make them and they are so much nicer than supermarket ones

No Morrisons near me unfortunately.
The rest of the pizzas on offer at supermarket are pretty poor - your better off eating cheese on toast.
Except for the really small frozen ones that cost next to nothing.
They're not quite as good as the real thing - but still ok.
How exactly is it quicker? Fascinated to know.
It would take me an hour to get to the shops and back.
It takes hardly any time in a bread oven on a dough maker setting.

you have to be taking the pI$$
dominos!! its just salt, salt and a layer of fat and more salt.
Its nothing like my homemade pizza. I wouldn't fancy eating yours if its like dominos.
Homemade does take longer to make as in chuck ingredients in bread maker, but its doesn't take that long after that.
The expense issue is just bull though, its no more expensive homemade considering the quality of the ingredients!
Yeah well I don't fancy yours either:rolleyes:
As for expense I was talking about the price of Dominos Pizza.
Point of a pizza for me is a spontaneous purchase and speed without needing all those ingredients in your store cupboards at home.
and another vote for ASDA as well , double steak and mozzerella discs on a stonebake base
But you need to go to the shops to buy the ingredients for the pizzas.
Dominos are nice, bit expensive, but nice.
They aren't sold in the UK anymore apparently
I'm not sure it is. By the time you've bought the toppings (especially meat ones), it can work out very expensive. Unless you just have a margarita.
Asdas stone baked meat feast thin crusts are good I have found.
The other month in a pizza thread, i actually costed out a homemade pizza, and it was cheaper.
Yes, their American Hot Pizzas from the deli counter are lush.
