Default My First Digiorno's

AKA, The Katz Specials. These occupy 1/4th the freezer space in
Pussy Katz's freezer.

$5/ea, original "rising crust". "Supreme" and "Three mMeat". I
swapped around some toppings and added shrooms, salami, and pecorino
romano cheese to different halves or wholes.

They "rise up" too much and turn into big donuts about 1.25" thick
(even with added ingredients weighing the crust down). Sufficient
sauce, could use some more cheese than provided. Filling, I though
I'd be able to eat a whole pizza but had trouble doing 3/4's (hadn't
eaten for at least 36 hours).

Box says, "We source only the finest ingredients from all over the
world". But the "sausage" and "beef topping" are mainly textured
vegetable protein (fake meat). And the pepperoni and sausage are
also mechanically separated chicken. Legal, FDA-approved pepperoni
and sausage are made out of pork and beef. And the "beef topping"
should be mostly beef, not TVP.

I'll try some of the crust styles for $5 or $6 and doctor them up
with REAL ingredients, but the rising crust was just kinda nyeh, all
things considered (too much dough, fake ingredients). I would not
enjoy it as provided for $5 without adding some extra stuff.

The instructions say to remove box, over-wrap, and cardboard tray.
I guess they downsized the cardboard tray to "non-existent" and
didn't tell the instruction-writers. I suppose in another couple
years these will be about as delightful as Hot Pockets as they
gradually turn them into complete shit.
