Well, I just learned something new. And not good!
A few weeks ago, I bought a 2 pack of thin, square, pizza crusts (par baked) from Target. The Archer Farm brand. Can't remember now if they were on sale, Cartwheel or coupon but something like that so I didn't pay much for them. I just wish I had read the ingredient list better before buying! I was only concerned about dairy and egg. I opened the package a little while ago to make them and was immediately whapped in the face by a nasty odor. Familiar odor but one that I couldn't place. One that smelled of chemicals. Bad chemicals. What in the hell could it be? It was so strong that even the insides of the package reeked of it. And it didn't get any better as the pizza baked. I even checked the crust all over before baking. Wasn't expired, no signs of mold or anything that looked off. So I went over the package with a fine toothed comb. And there it was! Artificial smoke flavor! Why? Just why? That doesn't belong in a pizza! Are they trying to make me think I baked it in a brick oven or something? I haven't eaten it yet and am not sure that I will be able to bring myself too. Luckily I only baked one piece for myself. Because they had no raised edge, I just cut one piece off for me and used real cheese on the rest for my husband. I hope he will eat it. He's not picky about his pizza and he'll even eat mine with the Daiya cheese but Lordy does my house stink now! |
