Don't get the Chef Boyardee box. The sauce is nasty. The best "box" isn't
a box it's just a crust mix. The Betty Crocker crust mix is the best and
the best sauce is Contadina or Mama Mary's. I think the Mama Mary's may be
regional because I get it at the Mexican market.

I lived for years and years where there wasn't any kind of take out pizza.
I've tried all of the box and frozen pizzas and I still like the box type.
I can use what I want for toppings.

Now I have to try it again. To me, the sauce was just plain tomato
sauce. It had no seasonings and it was no worse than any other can of
plain tomato sauce.

Again, your opinion. It was the '60's and nobody cared about that.

It's too bad that trans fats seldom kill until after breeding age.
Otherwise they could improve the gene pool.

I'd be more concerned with the imitation berry bits. Sounds like a heck
of a pizza crust. :-)

I don't even know why he bothered to post that; other than to give
himself an excuse to get all excited about hydrogenated fats. He ate
pizza in a box for dinner, not me.

Well, the ingredients listed wasn't for pizza dough anyway - I'm
guessing it's blueberry muffins. What the heck, maybe I'll make some
blueberry muffins. :-)

Are you still getting fresh blueberries at a reasonable price? I have
to gorge on them while I can still get them cheap.

I think the cheapest that I've seen it was $2.50 for 6 oz. I'm making
some blueberry coffee cake out of Costco dried berries which is a
sweetened product. I made the batter a little thinner because they might
absorb some liquid. Hopefully, it won't sink to the bottom of the cake. :-)

That might be kind of interesting. But the pizza crust doesn't have
imitation berry bits.

From the package,

enriched flour (wheat flour, niacin, iron, thiamin mononitrate, riboflavin,
folic acid) enriched flour bleached (wheat flour, malted barley flour,
niacin, iron, thiamin mononitrate, riboflavin, folic acid) partially
hydrogenated soybean and/or cottonseed oil, dextrose, dry yeast, salt,
leavening (sodium aluminum phosphate, baking soda) BHA (preservative) egg,
soy flour, nonfat milk.

I've never tried this mix but I'm sure that you're correct about there
being no imitation berry bits in the pizza dough. Thanks for correcting
me on this and taking the time to type all that out!

It's a wonder anyone ever survived the past 50 years Bryan, with all
the poisons that are in our processed foods that you so constantly
whinge about. Hydrogenated and trans fats, etc. We should all either
be dead or have horrible mutations or something from the way you make
it sound.

You know as well as I do that trans fats seldom kill the under 50
folks. Besides, what other "poisons" do you see me habitually
complaining about? Atherosclerosis is generally a disease of the old,
but you know all that and are just messing with me for the heck of it.
