Oh, I'm sure it has, however freezing tech hasn't solved the inherent issue of dehydration. Compared to fresh <insert your food here> foods, it will usually be found to be lacking. There are only a few foods I find that improve with freezing (like durian pods) and even those foods that do handle freezing well, can't be frozen for too long.

I wonder if your freezer is cold enough. There are many foods that freeze really well without loss of quality.
In most cases, it's still edible, but noticable. |

I think maybe you expect a lot more from a $6 pizza than I do. ;)

Well, for a little more, CDN$8.99+tax can get you a 1 topping fresh pizza. And that's usually until midnight/1am... so yeah. I might keep something like that for the 3am munchies but to be honest, I could probably do better than a frozen pizza. Been stocking my fridge a little better these days

My dad takes one of his cars to a informal show on Friday evenings...in a shopping center with a 7-11. He generally buys one of those pizzas and it also provides him lunch for the weekend. I've stopped at the show several times and have grabbed a slice. It is OK, and better than many of the frozen puzzas I've tried. Not sure I would pay for one though.
Back in the day, 7-11 "nachos' were great at 2 AM! |

I always opted for the "safe" choice at 7-11. The hot dog. They were decent if they hadn't been spinning too long.

It's definitely not the best pizza I've eaten, but it's not horrible. As noted, I wouldn't go out of my way to pick one up, but it'll do in a pinch.
Anyways, if I'm in a 7-11 and need something to eat, I'll go with two steak & cheese taquitos. |

Just curious - anyone here ever eat one? Part of one? I noticed a sign up in the parking lot at a nearby 7-11, featuring a large 7 meat pizza for $7.99 or so. I figure it is probably no better or worse than a frozen pizza from the supermarket, yet already heated for your midnight convenience. I have no plans to get one, but well, as I drink my tea after lunch, I decided it was a most worthy topic for a Saturday afternoon post. Certainly Gao must have eaten one, as I expect his "Good Book" says "after overspending on eating out for six days, on the seventh day, thy wallet shall rest."
It is frozen that the employees place in a convection style oven. I have tried it, not the best unless it is straight out of the oven as it sits under a heat lamp. |

If you want to try it, you can always buy a slice to try it.
