Today I decided to buy and try Red Baron Singles Deep Dish 4 Cheese Pizza
In a box you get two pizza, and a serving is one 410 calorie pizza.
The box says you can microwave it with the cardboard crisp tray, or you can bake in in the oven at 375 degrees for 20 minutes. I chose the oven because whenever I do microwave with these types of pizzas, they are always undercooked tasting.
When I took it out after 20 minutes, the cheese had puffed up tall and the sides were dark and crispy (the bottom was still really light, but it felt crispy and I didn't want to overdo it). It smelled like a typical frozen pizza, which is hard to explain, I guess the closest relation is a grilled cheese smell.
When I took a bite, the crust of the edges were sharp and hurt the roof of my mouth. The cheese was alright, but it was not as cheesy as you would imagine a 4 cheese pizza being. Also, the sauce was bland and there was a lot of it. However, the crust on the interior of the pizza was wonderful. The bottom had a crunch, but above it was soft and chewy.
Pros: The interior crust and the single serving size.
Cons: The cheese and sauce did not taste very cheesy and saucy.
Taste: 4/10
Texture: 6/10 The interior crust was nice but the edge crust and sauce was not.
Amount for calories: 8/10 Although not big, it was filling.
Overall: 7/10
The individual pizza is great for when I just want to heat something up for myself and not do a whole lot to prepare, but next time I am definitely going to try a different brand.
