Target Stores has developed their own in-store brand for many foods carried in the grocery section – the brand name is Archer Farms. Last nite we were picking up a few pre-holiday items, and by impulse, I grabbed the frozen “Sicilian Style Thin Crust Pizza.” The further description offered on the box front states “Genoa… Continue reading Home Cooking Test – Target Frozen Pizza

Home Cookin’ – DiGiorno Cheese Stuffed Crust
“It’s Not Delivery, It’s DiGiorno” state the commercials for this Nestle product. Hmmm. I’ve had lots of delivered pizzas that became fleeting, one-time events in my life, and if DiGiorno wants to be placed into that category, I’m happy to oblige them. I purchased the “bacon, sausage, and pepperoni” topped version of this pie, and the packaging has… Continue reading Home Cookin’ – DiGiorno Cheese Stuffed Crust
Compare & Contrast – Red Baron French Bread Pizza
I’ve reviewed Red Baron products before, frozen pies brought to you by the good folks at Schwan’s from Minnesota, my home territory. (Many believe Minnesota is the birthplace of frozen pizza, courtesy of Rose Totino, and later, Jeno Paulucci). Today I wanted to take the two French bread pizzas and compare them by cooking one via… Continue reading Compare & Contrast – Red Baron French Bread Pizza
Home Cookin’ Test – Red Baron Fire Baked Crust
One I have tried before, just a quick update because they were on sale for about $2, and Mrs. BDB and her friends were enjoying yet another vegan dinner at our house….and I was going through carnivore withdrawal (that’s what SHE said). My impression last time was largely favorable, and either my taste buds are changing… Continue reading Home Cookin’ Test – Red Baron Fire Baked Crust
Lean Cuisine Spinach & Mushroom Pizza
Boy, was I ever prepared not to like this. But the cupboards were bare, and while I gave up “4th meal” a long time ago, I was waiting for Mrs. Burgerdogboy to come home from a networking event, so we could watch the latest installment of Sons of Anarchy. The pizza comes with one of… Continue reading Lean Cuisine Spinach & Mushroom Pizza

Home Cookin’ – Safeway Select Ultra Thin Crust Pizza
Safeway (and Von’s, Randalls, and Tom Thumb Markets) have a number of quality in house branding concepts, among them is the “Select” line of frozen meals. I picked up the “Primo Italian Meat Ultra Thin Crust Pizza”, which includes toppings of capicola, crumbled Italian sausage, and Genoa Salami, covered with a blend of Mozzarella, Parmesan,… Continue reading Home Cookin’ – Safeway Select Ultra Thin Crust Pizza
Home Test – Palermo’s Frozen Pizza
I’ve known about Palermo’s for a number of years, but my knowledge of them was limited to their contract / private label business. They make a lot of other brands retail frozen and deli pizzas. An offshoot of a family-owned restaurant in Milwaukee, started in the 60s, Palermo’s has grown to be one of the… Continue reading Home Test – Palermo’s Frozen Pizza
7-Eleven Pizza, the Home Version
I have previously written about 7-Eleven adding more hot food items, round-the-clock, including pizza, both whole and sliced. A whole pepperoni retails for 9.99. The program of adding ready-cooked foods reflects changing consumer habits – for one thing, 7-Eleven has to make up for the rapidly decreasing income from tobacco sales. Plus they have moved… Continue reading 7-Eleven Pizza, the Home Version
