Frozen Pizza and Life
I went to the grocery store tonight to hunt dinner, and decided that a frozen pizza was the way to go. The village cheered when I brought it home, and we used every part of it as part of our pact with The Great Creator in the Sky.

But anyway, back to the point.

Our grocery store arranges the frozen pizzas by price. On the far left, you've got the Totinos and other stuff that's food in name only. Then you move to the right with Tony's and then Red Baron and Home Run (blech) in the middle. As you move further right you get to the highest-priced stuff like DiGiorno and the overpriced California pizza kitchen.

As I stared at the pizza freezers making my decision, I had an epiphany about life. I thought back to my high school days when I was more or less a third worlder, and in those days there was no option but Totino's. I ate it and I liked it because it was a treat. I didn't get it very often.

Then I got into college and actually did okay on money, and I graduated to Tony's where possible, going the Totino's route only when money got tight. After graduation, when I got a real job, it was Tony's all the way for years.

Then I got married. Dual income, no kids, and frankly it wasn't an issue to pay more for a frozen pizza. I stood at the freezers tonight and grabbed a DiGiorno for $8.49, an act that would have been unthinkable for the first half of my life.

I'm in my prime earning years right now, making reasonable money with few financial worries. If I want to eat out of the right side of the pizza case, I can do it. No problem.

But a time will come when I can't eat out of the right side. I'll retire and I'll have to watch my money and my savings will dwindle, and at some point I'll start eating Tony's again. But this time I'll eat Tony's with the memory of once having DiGiorno. That might make my pizza night melancholy.

And the end of the story is inevitable. I'll be an old man sitting in my house watching TV, and I'll heat up my Totino's pizza and I'll consider it a treat because I don't get to have it very often. Eventually the police will do a welfare check because I'm not paying my property taxes, and they'll find my mummified body in a chair, holding a piece of mummified Totino's.

I wish they would rearrange that pizza freezer.

For frozen, I prefer Totino's or Red Baron. I actively don't like the high end frozen pizzas. I'm in that valley where it's a reasonable facsimile of real pizza , but not real pizza.

A veggie slice, a pepperoni, and an iced tea for $5 was just about perfect.

Shakespeare's was good, but for that style I'd take G&D's every time.

Totinos rocks, best crust in the biz by far... but they made a HUGE mistake when they got rid of their crumbly pork sausage with fennel seed in it, now its just little puke nuggets that are no different than any other brands bland sausage.

And yes, CPK is the most overpriced crap in the entire pizza aisle.

In the end, they wait for you to die, think they know how much each will get, and if forced to will give you a hot pocket and they tell you its a cinnamon roll.

Leave nothing to the unappreciative bastards.

We have 3 or 4 different pizza joints locally that sell $5 pizzas. It pains me to spend more than that on a frozen pizza that is an inferior product.

We haven't done frozen pizza in years. We live in Florida, so anytime someone from St Louis comes to visit us we have them bring a block or 2 of Provel cheese for us. Then we make homemade Imos. And it's so much better than any frozen pizza, and most pizza places too.

I don't have much to add other than to avoid the Aldi brand frozen pizzas. It has like a weird sweet sauce and is hands down the worst frozen pizza I've had.

You used to eat at the Goat and Dog?

I used to go there for a cheap steak, but the radio station I worked at was sponsored by Shakes, so we'd get free pizzas sent over to us all the time.

It was faaaaaaabulous.

Heck yeah, Goat and Dog! I've been to the steakhouse a handful of times, but my go-to was their pizza joint at Stadium and Broadway.

That Chinese joint next door (House of Chow) was outstanding, too.

The triple meat Totino's is my favorite. But at 1580 mg sodium per pizza, it's very far away from my diet plan.
