Red Leicester is perhaps the best thing to come out of the UK ever, by the way.
That with a bit of Branston Pickle on a slice of bread :drool:

Imagine you have a McDonald's cheeseburger and a pizza base with tomato sauce, you take bites of the burger without swallowing and spew the chewed remains upon the pizza.
It's just mince, gherkins and cheese. It basically tastes like burger relish but for 1.90 it's phenomenonal.

I had 2 thirds of it yesterday and didn't need to eat anything else all day except for some toast at 11pm. Pretty sure the chili oil and spicy beef gave me a mild case of the shits, but that didn't stop me from having the other third for my very early lunch just now. I'm "trying to be healthy", and I'm justifying it by telling myself that most weekends I'd have eaten just as much shit by now, but I'd have had about 15 pints as well.

There's a place near me that does a 'chilli special' pizza which is spiced mince, spiced chicken, spiced lamb, jalapenos, chilli flakes, and red onion. It's fantastic, but every shit is an emergency for a day afterwards and any more than about one a month would send you to the doctor.

That pizza sounds incredible.
My mate has given up midweek curry. He had a daily 45 minute commute from Chester to Liverpool on a creaky Merseyrail train without a toilet. He had a very hot curry and a few beers, and he had to get off at fucking Port Sunlight or something cus he was so desperate for a shit. No toilet on platform so had to wait for Liverpool anyway, with the extra 10 minute wait for the next train. Bleak.

Mega meaty with a cheesy stuffed crust (I get the hotdog stuffed but I think I'm the only person in the world likes hotdogs).
Now (I'm only going by here) there's nothing wrong with a good Dominoes but I've found a huge difference in how soaking the box is with grease in the two of them, plus they don't do stuffed crusts.

If it has to be a menu choice just go with the pepperoni one off Hut.
Most of those other meats have no place on a pizza.
I like the fact that Pizza Hut bill their menu as "The Legendary Pizza Hut Menu".
:D
I could probably get on board with a hotdog crust though, depending on the consistency of the dog. It essentially becomes two meals at that point though.

Don't buy that pizza. It's all grand apart from the sauce, which is shit and very sickly and kinda negates all the goodness of the rest of it to give you something bang average.

Sainsbury's do a white farmhouse loaf that if you get them to thick slice it is quality for a couple of days. Their individual little ones are shit, and they seem to have fallen into the sourdough wanker trap with their baguettes and that; but they don it on the sweet side of the bakery. Their donuts are the best, and so are their cookies, so let's not write them off.
Asda are the absolute pits on the bakery side of things. Their fresh bread is all crap (their baguettes are almost perfect cylinders and full of air), and all of their biscuits and buns are bollocks as well. Co-op are good, especially their baguettes and that four for a quid bread offer they have; but their donuts have nothing in them and the rest of the range is a bit iffy. Lidl make shit bread but their buns are quality. Big Tescos do some very good ponce loaves, like the cheese ones and whatever, but the rest of their selection is Asda-level crap.
Morrisons might be the best all-rounder, and they do all sausage rolls and pies and that which would win it if you want to include them.
Tesco do decent cookies.
If anything from Dominos is the best you've ever had then you haven't had enough. Aside from their garlic dip they don't do anything that's better than a 7/10.

Sainsbury's does have a decent bakery, Lew, you're right. Those cookies were lethal. Also, Boydy, Sainsbury's did a garlic and herb dip that was pretty good. I haven't had Domino's for a long time, but I was pretty happy with it.
HOWEVER, when it comes to onion and garlic dip, by far the best dip, Co-op has the best and if you're going to buy a pizza you might as well just buy that onion and garlic dip and live like a king.

The Co-op in Norwich station used to put the cookies on top of the heated sausage roll/sandwich cabinet, which melted them all up perfectly for your train ride. I think the reason I said the rest of their range is a 'bit iffy' is that buying them from anywhere else feels like a disappointment.

I thought this, but then had one from Iceland on one of their frozen jobs (I think it was a bit of an odd new york thing with mustard on the actual pizza) but the crust was top tier. Really thought it was going to be awful mush but no.
BBQ base is a big no no, mind.

Make away, so long as it’s not italian style. Dry floury muck.
Barbecue sauce on pizza sounds horrible. I can understand other forms of pizza-based innovation (thicker crusts, all manner of shit cheese, chicken, beef), but this one always struck me as odd. A cheesy pizza dough with processed chicken just...doesn't seem like a good vessel for barbecue sauce?

Don’t make a rubbery base, don’t dose it in flour, and don’t stop the sauce 2 inches from the edge.

Pizzas over here are often bigger than a large dominos for example which probably accounts for some of the cost. Remember we have to tip here too, I never tipped in the UK for pizza.
Spoilt for choice for pizza in NY but this bad boy is my favourite. Roni cups and hot honey which is also over $30 with tip but it's comfortably feeding 4 people.

I vaguely remember Dominoes doing a tabasco crust which was immense but blew my arse out for hours after.
Had a pizza from a place near my mother in law's the other night which was confusing as, despite it being nice enough, they had a weird fluffy bread base instead of the standard doughy ones - and they were using what appeared to be bargain hotdogs as toppings.

Nah, an All-American classic. Well, he might claim to be Italian, like half of Americans do. I don't know.

I know, because I made both of them.
Actually, spaghetti is a bad choice to pair with bolognese, and there’s a more-or-less non-wank reason for it. Something longer and flatter (like tagliatelle or fettuccine) or with ridges (like penne rigate) helps the sauce stick better so you get more sauce per bite and aren’t left with a load of it at the bottom after.
