Cafeteria pizzas were alright. Schwan's single serve frozen pizzas were heaven.

I don't like Tony's new pepperoni. I miss the old ones that would curl up into little grease pots.

when kid friends of my daughter came over for lunch, I was suprised by how picky about brands they were. Usually we had a couple brands of pizza on hand, Totinos, Tony's, Jacks and/or Tombstone - and they always had a preference even at age 7 or 8.

Likewise I notice on the lunch menu at my daughter's school -kindergarten, they don't just say "pizza" its always described out - Tony's pizza, or French Bread Pizza, etc.

Times have changed from 3 decades ago with food. We cater so much to kids whims (I'm guilty of this too) that they are getting to be very picky about stuff.

A few years ago, I remember a kid that came over to play and eat lunch, we went through our vast stock of kid-friendly and non-kid food (different kinds of pizza, grilled cheese, quesadilla, hot dogs, tacos, mac n cheese, buttered noodles, yogurt etc etc) and he would turn his nose up to all of it. Actually some of it he claimed to like, but we didn't have the proper brand of it, or he liked yogurt, but we didn't have sprinkles to put on top of it. Finally, I think he agreed to eat if we made him cinnamon rolls.

Like I said, I brought that hassle upon myself. I'm going to go to Uncle Sams and get some MRE's and put it in front of the
next picky kid.

When Mom was out, we used to always get the Dad special: macaroni and cheese with cut up hot dog bits. We loved it.
Ha! That's funny.

The irony is that I actually do all cooking in our household (and do it well, I might add!), but when the wife is out of town I revert back to frozen pizzas and mac & cheese with hot dogs.
i am a damned good cook, but left to my own devices, if i don't have to share a meal with someone, i value simplicity over all else. its gotten to the point where i'll pick the choice i can eat immediately over the thing i have to microwave for 60 seconds. 60 seconds is too long for me to stand and wait, but if i wander off to do something else i'll forget i have something in the microwave until the hunger hits again, and then its probably cold so the whole cycle repeats. it wasn't a problem before the dog passed away (moment of silence for Nadine, best dog ever) because if i forgot about food she'd sit in the kitchen and stare at the microwave and she'd sort of "wurfle!" if i didn't notice her. maybe i should get a helper monkey.

I do indulge in a Totino's from time to time.

Sidebar...I'm not a great cook, but am pretty decent thanks to dear old dad. When I was in the 8th grade, my mom had a lung removed (they thought she had cancer, but did not #-o ). Then she caught pneumonia. She was in IC for 42 days. Dad's first meal was cold pork and beans straight out of the can and cold [expletive] hot dogs. I learned to cook. I hate cold hot dogs. :puke: Well, really all hot dogs.
All this talk about cancer, pneumonia, and faulty lungs is making me hungry for some frozen pizza.

Same here, it's been a long time since I've had a frozen pizza. Tombstone was my fav, used to be made in Medford, WI and was a big bar pizza when I lived in Wisco. But it was bought by Kraft in the '80s, so I doubt it would be the same today. Maybe I'll have to check one out just to see.
