For most of us, pizza is one of those cravings that we eat every once in a while, but with moderation. And I don't have to say why, do I? :grumble:

What if I tell you that now you can eat it every day, even 3 times a day and be healthy and within your calorie and macro-nutrient goals?

Well, if you live in UK and you are willing to wait until the end of the year, you can try this new product:

I hope that
1) it tastes good
(I'm Italian and I know how a pizza should taste)
2) it's really healthy as they claim
3) they will start selling it also in the US

PS: I'm not one of the inventors, but I feel I should have thought about it myself :love:

    "Pizza in the morning, pizza in the evening, pizza at super-time! When pizza's on a bagel it's still pretty much nutritionally and calorically the same as pizza on a pizza crust!"

    Lol. Except the percentage of carbs is probably quite a bit higher when you put it on a bagel.

    They said it's "as good or better than a frozen pizza". That's not a high recommendation to me.

    Dh and I were just singing that the other day when we decided it was a pizza night (and therefore pizza breakfast or lunch with the leftovers).


    The superpizza looks good, but I don't see how it'd be any better than making your own thin crust with healthy toppings and taking a multivitamin if you wanted the extra stuff they pumped into it.

    Sure, but not everybody has the time or the will to cook... so a more healthy choice available at the grocery store is always preferable :smile:

    Indeed, that's why I said that it should taste good!!! I'm very spoiled and picky with food, especially when it's Italian food (I'll blame my mother for that :tongue: ). But this might be a good solution for a lot of people that normally eat frozen pizza in any case.

    Furthermore, this might give a hint to other cooks to improve their recipes and make them more healthy.
