on deep fried products. \u00a0The Reggio&#8217;s pie includes one of those &#8220;specialized&#8221; baking surfaces (within the box) \u00a0which is supposed to amp up the crisp factor. \u00a0In the base of this product, you remove from the box and the cello, and slide the frozen pizza back into the box for its minute or so in the nuke-a-torium.<\/p>\n<p>I wasn&#8217;t very happy with the result. \u00a0While the familiar taste of a Reggio&#8217;s pie was there, and the interior portion was adequate, the crust rim was rock hard, and part of the pie was left in the box. \u00a0It doesn&#8217;t appear there is any easy way to get the pie out of the &#8216;cooking chamber box&#8217; intact.<\/p>\n<p>As with most products that give you the option of conventional oven or microwave, despite the time needed and energy consumption, I always recommend using your oven. \u00a0In the case of this pizza, the upside results would have been two fold: \u00a01) even crust baking, and \u00a02) better appearance.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_12365\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-12365\" style=\"width: 470px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/burgersdogspizza.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/20141009_122408_Android.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\" wp-image-12365\" src=\"http:\/\/burgersdogspizza.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/20141009_122408_Android-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"Reggios Microwave Pizza Review\" width=\"470\" height=\"264\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-12365\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Baked, and out of the box<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_12366\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-12366\" style=\"width: 475px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/burgersdogspizza.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/20141009_122422_Android.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\" wp-image-12366\" src=\"http:\/\/burgersdogspizza.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/20141009_122422_Android-1024x660.jpg\" alt=\"Reggios Microwave Pizza Review\" width=\"475\" height=\"306\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-12366\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">What Was Left in the Box<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m reluctant to try almost any freezer pizza that says it can be microwaved. \u00a0Just never works out, in my opinion. \u00a0But Reggio&#8217;s is one of my favorite frozen brands, and the individual sized were on an endcap and on sale, so I thought I&#8217;d give one a whirl. \u00a0 I&#8217;ve tried the size before,&hellip;
