    Pizza. Getting pizza for the family shouldn’t cost over $70. Hell, eating out and fast food are exorbitantly expensive.

      Oh god for me it was frozen pizza. I fucking love frozen pizza as an easy dinner night and used to be able to find Dr Oetkers for $4 a pizza. That shit is $13 now.

      It kills me cause I still love it but I won’t buy it :(

      Pizza in my corner of the world is still a reasonable price. First, there’s cheap but delicious Little Caesars – that’s a go-to that I’m not at all embarrassed to admit. Then my local pizza shop can get me a XL pie and cheesy bread sticks for less than $20 out the door. My family of three always has leftovers from that for lunch the next day for someone but not everyone.

      Any of the bougy “wood fired” blah blah blah boutique pizza grift stills costs a fortune here. But my little local pizza shop is a good NYC style slice, with normal pizza shop ingredients.

            It’s not BAD. I don’t mind it for the price. I would never claim that it’s “delicious” either though. I’m from Detroit too. The Little Caesar’s pizza at Little Caesar’s Arena hits different. Albeit it’s $30 more.

              I, too, am originally from the Metro Detroit area. My Metro Detroit area chain pizza takes: Hungry Howies used to be better, I think (or I’m suffering rose colored hindsight). Jet’s Pizza is still pretty good. Dominoes was never really good and despite their commercials, they’ve not gotten much better.

              Hot take: Buddy’s Pizza is overrated greasy dog shit.

              I now live out of state, but I visit my family in SE Michigan every other month or so. I have a preference for Coney’s too.

                Best Detroit Style: Cloverleaf with a close second being green lantern.

                Best Non-Detroit Style: Supino’s in Eastern Market.

                Best Coney: Duly’s, but honestly National Coney Island just feels right.
