-- What is the absolute worst pizza that you recall eating?

[Simply Red]

I ask because I just got served a 'Hot-N-Ready' Little Ceasar's' steaming pepperoni turd.

That's honestly not worth $5.00.

Unless I was homeless, or something, then it might be.

No poll - just discus which Pizza Joints served you up a turd, store bought is fine here, too.

Basically make a pizza, then instead of baking it, fold it in half and deep fry it!

That's called a Calzone in the rest of the world.

Calzone's aren't deep fried.

The typical calzone is stuffed with tomato and mozzarella, and may include other ingredients that are normally associated with pizza toppings.
The dough is folded into a half-moon shape then sealed with an egg wash mixture, or formed into a spherical shape and baked or deep-fried.

From the same Wikipedia page:

Fried versions typically filled with tomato and mozzarella, are made in Puglia and are called Panzerotti.

My point is that deep-frying calzones is what this guy was calling something else. No big deal. They're quite common in most Italian restaurants and pizzerias that serve calzones. I've eaten a few myself and they're quite good.

YES, good doctor,
I loved Godfathers back in the 80's when it was just a nebraska chain, and then I came to KC for a chiefs raiders game in 06 and hit minsky's

There is a helluva lot worse pizza than LC, It's not bad and if you have 5 screaming kids to feed they love it.

[Fishpicker]

Little Caesars and Dominos taste terrible to me, but the worst I have ever had was a Pizza Hut pan (thick) pizza. It looked good when i opened the box but the crust was raw and doughy. It was impossible to eat.

Little Seizures is the worst.

[ILChief]

Papa Johns is my least favorite chain. Too sweet or something and I burp it up for days. As far as the worst overall (as someone else previously posted):
