I probably said before that I've had the hankering to try a couple of frozen pizzas again for my first time in - seriously - probably twenty years. On my most recent shopping trip I didn't see anything at Shop Rite that I recognized as being recommended by anyone, but just to dip my toes into the water I picked up a Stouffer's French Bread one which I haven't had in an even longer time. I know it won't satisfy the craving for a "real" one but it should make for a pleasant meal.
I then remembered my earlier history with some pizzas Trader Joe's began carrying during my last year or so in Los Angeles, which were a few varieties of small frozen pizza made by Wolfgang Puck. His name was all the rage then, and those pizzas were damned good. Moving here, there was no TJ on the east coast then, but the memory of those pizzas lived on. When they finally expanded and we got our own store, I looked at their pizzas. The Puck name was nowhere in evidence (probably long gone), but it looked like there were a few under the Trader Joe's name that were very similar. However, I didn't bother trying any then, and now with the staying at home, I haven't been across town to even go into our Trader Joe's. When I finally do, though, watch out.
