But you're not pinching pennies about who makes what and who spends what and who has what in their bank account. To each their own, but I find that rather off when you're married. I'd do that with a business partner. |

She'd be highly insulted if I offered to pay for her personal expenses, as if it were charity. We can both well afford to pay for our own personal needs. My wife is definitely not the type of woman who would appreciate being financially cared for, like a dependant child. I know that there are a lot of women who need a man to support them, my first wife was one of those dependants, the primary reason we divorced... she thought her only responsibility was giving birth, she did nothing to enhance our life together. |

Here, I'll even beat Bruce to the list of ingredients just for the fake cheese: IMITATION MOZZARELLA CHEESE (WATER, PALM OIL, MODIFIED POTATO STARCH, RENNET CASEIN, SOYBEAN OIL, VITAL WHEAT GLUTEN, SODIUM ALUMINUM PHOSPHATE, POTASSIUM CHLORIDE, SALT, CITRIC ACID, POTASSIUM SORBATE [PRESERVATIVE], SODIUM PHOSPHATE, SODIUM CITRATE, TITANIUM DIOXIDE [ARTIFICIAL COLOR], MALTODEXTRIN, MAGNESIUM OXIDE, CANOLA OIL, ZINC OXIDE, VITAMIN A PALMITATE, RIBOFLAVIN, VITAMIN B6, VITAMIN B12) And then they throw in some "real fake cheese": CONTAINS LESS THAN 2% OF: REHYDRATED PASTEURIZED PROCESS NONFAT MOZZARELLA CHEESE (WATER, NONFAT MILK, CHEESE CULTURES, SALT, ENZYMES, CITRIC ACID, VITAMIN A PALMITATE, VITAMIN B6, SODIUM ALUMINUM PHOSPHATE, SODIUM CITRATE, SODIUM PHOSPHATE) And then last but not least, some "almost cheese". REHYDRATED ENZYME MODIFIED CHEESE (WATER, MILK, CHEESE CULTURES, SALT, ENZYMES Eww. How can you eat that shit!?!?!? ;-) -sw |

Never the Canadian ham, Mexican, or ground beef. Stay away from their new stuffed nachos and pizza sticks - nyeh. And for pizza rolls, teh store brand is 25% cheaper and better.

I finally bought and tried a "Wild Mike's" pizza yesterday. They're on sale this week for half price...only $3.25 for a large pizza (Supreme is 38.8 oz). Cooked 1/2 yesterday in the oven. Added nothing so I see what I'm starting with. Thick and chewy crust (which I like). The very bottom of the crust turned crisp though so a nice crunch with each bite. Toppings were generous and spread right to rim with only about 1/2" plain crust. Just enough to grab with hand. Not bad at all and the sale price was certainly right. I'll buy again. It also included a small packed of "italian seasoning" herbs and one of hot pepper flakes. I added those before cooking since they were included. And that's not all - also included a 3 1/4" diameter round sticker with a pic of the 'crazy' fellow. lol I can just picture some young party fellow named mike putting that on his front door. heh heh Here's the box. Hope this .png works. Flaky on this computer http://www.wildmikesultimatepizza.co...ss_supreme.png And here's the sticker that came with it. http://www.wildmikesultimatepizza.co...cker-front.jpg |

Mostly, it's a disappointment when you pull it out. I can't eat a pizza until my wife is off of low carb diet but it certainly looks tasty. I'll try any pizza weighing 2lbs at $3.25. OTOH, by the time it's offloaded the boat, the price is going to be around $8. I love that zany image they're promoting. Very hip! |

Looks like a good pizza but they always look good on the box. Mostly, it's a disappointment when you pull it out. I can't eat a pizza until my wife is off of low carb diet but it certainly looks tasty. I'll try any pizza weighing 2lbs at $3.25. OTOH, by the time it's offloaded the boat, the price is going to be around $8. I love that zany image they're promoting. Very hip! ======== I've low carbed for many years, I eat the toppings off a couple of slices and leave the crust behind as a rule, that might be an option for her. I think the best pizzas are Papa Murphy's take and bake, don't know if you have them in Hawaii? Cheri |

We don't do that anymore but I have been eating some meat a cheese rolls so that sort of like what you describe. We do have a Papa Murphy's in our little village. I had it one time. It's pretty good pizza but I'm afraid that I'm not going to get to eat any for a while. I'd say there's a 50-50 chance of the place going under before I get the chance. |

This is a case of good marketing/advertising. The box is what actually sold me. I loved that crazy mike pic and tried it only because of the packaging. Luckily, I also liked the product once I tried it. I'll be cooking the other half tonight with a few ounces of mozzarella that I've wanted to use up. > I'll try any pizza weighing 2lbs at $3.25. Actually, almost 2.5 pounds. > I love that zany image they're promoting. Very hip! http://www.wildmikesultimatepizza.co...cker-front.jpg |
