Guess who’s back? Pep is back. Tell your friends!

As Killer Mike once said,

“Back at it like a crack addict…”

Though the feverish 5 months of frozen pizza consumption has left my body broken and bruised, when I heard a new frozen pizza had appeared in the wild, I answered the call. How could I not? The Pizza formerly known as Pep released another brand that seems to have highlighted all the things I hated about their last one. Makes me feel good knowing that someone’s out there, reading this garbage, and making business decisions designed to hurt me. You can kind of tell from the box art below, but this pizza has a pretty thick crust edge and a fucking ton of leaves on it. I don’t know what kind of leaves…maybe basil? Is creeping charlie something you would put on a pizza? Honestly, for the ~thousand or so calories, it wasn’t a bad pizza, and it was pretty filling. Just wasn’t something I’d go out of my way to get.

Pros:

  • Found in grocery stores near you! Maybe!

  • Didn’t make me regret my return to the stage.

Cons:

  • Too many pieces of some kind of herb. Had to stop twice to pick them out of my beautiful teeth. (-1 point)

  • Not enough toppings, and they were kind of replaced with random slices of tomato (if I haven’t said it before, frozen tomato slices on frozen pizza is just empty calories. There’s no flavor to be had). Clean it up, Pep. (-1 point)

  • Crust was way too thick on the edges. (-1 point)

7/10
