I always thought of frozen pizza as it's own separate entity.  They way soy milk is milk, frozen pizza is pizza.  Could you imagine a pizza parlor that actually sold something along the lines of elio's.  Don't get me wrong, I like to burn elio's or stouffers and cover with tabasco and salt, once or twice a year but, it's it's own thing.. I guess more accurately, the way a mcdonalds cheeseburger is a cheeseburger, frozen pizza is pizza.  Like when I crave a burger, I don't crave mcdonalds, but, when I crave mcdonalds, I am not craving a burger.. I am craving whatever chemical composition, the boys at the mcdonalds lab came up with.  

 

But, what is interesting is, in recent years, there is a new crop of frozen pizza companies that are actually just freezing well made pizza.. They are making restaurant quality pizza and vacuum sealing it..And no longer are they packaging the product in cardboard boxes and letting fancy graphics sell you, they are just leaving the pizza tightly packed in plastic ,leaving nothing to the imagination..  

 

Anyway, I love to freeze pizza, i make sure my freezer is well stocked with pizza from my favorite places. I simply heat them up in a skillet or in an oven and moments later,  i am enjoying a not frozen pizza, pizza.
