Oh, I understood it; I’m a native English speaker. Unfortunately for you, “then dw bt it” doesn’t make any sense.
Are we even in a thread about AI? I’ve gone through my comments, and I don’t see any evidence of me being “obsessed with AI”, honestly it’s not that big of a deal to me.
Looks like someone’s projecting a little something…
who the fuck are you, pissing around in here like this? I wasn’t even replying to you. being a native english speaker honestly just adds to it. “if i cant understand it, it doesn’t make sense!” what an arrogant fucking moron. you realize how absolutely arrogant and narcissistic that sounds, right?
how about you post on your real account instead of your porn account so i can block bitter assholes like you. go get a lobotomy and get the fuck out my DMs
I’m not in your dms, but the only reason I’m on this account is that my normal ones were upgrading to 19.2 and my app hadn’t caught up lol. My normal accounts are @swab148 and @swab148 if you wanna block them.
I’m in Canada, when I order pizza for my family of 3 it comes out to like $65+ with tax and delivery, it’s insane. Took them to burger king the other day, we got 3 meals and a couple of apple turnovers and it came out to $50+, shit is insane.
I generally order only when I can’t. Like when the day has been a hectic disaster, it’s 20 minutes from dinner, I haven’t had a chance to go to the store or cook, and the kids gotta eat. If it was just me alone I’d survive in crackers
Yeah. During the pandemic I realized fuck eating out. Why is the main public activity going to a fucking restaurant anyway? We need more museums. Like, lots more.
I will say tho, fast food salads (pick up not delivery) are worth it. I bought a $25 salad from a deli chain & said this is too expensive. So next week I spent $20 on salad ingredients & made a salad. I didn’t feel like a salad for a couple days & all ingredients wilted.
Maaan!! That’s crazy prices! Have you ever tried buying a frozen marg pizza and putting ur own toppings on. That’s what I do and it usually costs way less with minimal effort.
You gotta order online and use their apps and newsletters it can cut the price by half if not more. They are making their prices punitive for not using their apps now. Domino’s should be about $8 a pizza.
We (loc: krautland) totally stopped ordering take-out. It gets less and less, worse and worse, cheaper and cheaper, but also more and more expensive. It’s not worth it anymore. At all.
We may be just some cheap fucks (as many still do, even those with way less moneyz), but takeout is no viable alternative to cooking anymore.
I saw Home Alone on TV during Christmas and the cheese pizza Kevin orders from Little Nero’s was $12 or $13. I’m impressed and grateful that I can still get a pizza for that price sometimes like 35 years later. Cheaper if I go to Caesars and pick up
It’s still a better price for what you are getting, but somehow a large Little Caesars pizza is only as filling as like three or four slices from anywhere else. I can easily finish it in one sitting. But you can’t complain about $5.55 for a whole pizza. And the “Hot-N-Ready!” signs have been making me giggle for 20 years.
Last time I ordered pizza it came out to $30. We make it at home now. Better quality anyway, besides one of my daughters really loves cooking it with me.
If you are culinary challenged like myself but would like to making pizza at home, here’s some suggestions:
Frozen grocery store cheese pizza but fancied up by adding whatever topping you are in the mood for. An “Italian seasoning” spice adds a lot of flavor.
Instead of a traditional pizza dough opt for something simpler like French bread or pitas. Slather on sauce, cheese, toppings. This was my introduction to “cooking” when I was broke.
Pre-made pizza crust like Boboli which is nice but ups the cost. You can also buy uncooked dough though I’ve never gone this route. I tried making my own dough back when bread machines were a thing but I could never get the hand of it.
Robin Hood pizza flour. I’m sure there are other brands but this is what our mom would use to make pizza most weekends. Now that I’m thinking about I’ll have to pick some up
Yes! We use mission low carb wraps (they seem to crisp up better) and spread tomato puree on top, then season it with garlic salt and Italian herbs, add clumps of grated cheese, and then toppings.
The trick is to preheat the oven to 400 with a cast iron in, and then spray with oil when you take it out ready to cook on (use gloves, it’ll be hot). Carefully transfer the pizza to the hot pan, return to oven, and cook for 10 mins. Depending on the toppings, and if you like it a little more top crispy, switch the oven to broil at the 8 min mark for the last two mins.
My new obsession is a little smidge of grated brussel sprouts (don’t knock it til you try it) with an oil spritz.
I’m probably going to try this, thanks for the write up.
Just yesterday I looked at the calorie count for my favorite frozen pizzas (Detroit Supreme, ~2400) and realized I need to cut it out entirely. This might soften the blow.
Yeah most pizzas run 300-400 cals a slice. If I really try to go easy on the cheese I can make a tortilla pizza for 500 cals.
I also make a wicked delicious lasagna without pasta sheets (sub for zucchini and kale layers). We designed it to fit our keto macros and I’ve kept it on rotation even though we’re only moderate low carb now.
You know if you order pizza from a place that’s actually good, which is to say not Dominos or Pizza Hut, then that’s actually a fair price. That’s how much I pay including tip and delivery. In Chicagoland.
There are a bunch near me but only two of them don’t suck. Prices are still super competitive too, can get two large pizzas a crazy combo and some sauces for under $20
If you don’t have a cast iron pan, you should get one. A basic Lodge does the job as good as any (it’s just a hunk of iron). It’s super easy to use a cast iron pan to make pizza.
If you can afford the space or whatever, and want one, get a pizza stone. I have never used one, so I can’t comment on it. I have used my 12" cast iron to make a lot of pizzas and there are many “cast iron pizza” recipes out there. It’s super easy and it’s one of the very few things that I can say I’ve yet to totally screw up cooking.
A pizza oven hits 900F and space above to create a jet stream which cooks the toppings. You can get by with a regular oven but it wont be like a pizza from a pizza oven
I figured a regular oven wouldn’t be as good as a pizza oven, just hate to see someone “roadblock” themselves. FWIW I used to finish my pizzas by putting them under the broiler for a minute.
