Mmmm apparently this is a Grandiosa. I’d eat that.

Looks like a Celeste frozen pizza. Ate those when we were poor and broke. I buy Screamin’ Silician nowadays, but the Celeste supreme one is still one of my guilty pleasures lol no joke.

    I was going to say, that's Celeste pizza if I've ever seen it. Which I get the nostalgia for. So bad, but even just seeing that photo is making me want what is essentially a large cracker with cheese on it.

    It’s like Taco Bell for pizza😂

    Taco Bell is so good, as long as you just don't consider it "Mexican food."

    If I'm in the mood for Mexican food, I've got a ton of options for authentic Mexican food. But sometimes I'm in the mood for Taco Bell specifically.

    It's when you conflate the two that you start running into problems.

    Celeste was right where my mind went as well! The article said nostalgia was supposedly a big part of it, and I will eat a Celeste or even some Elios if I need a real throwback and I feel like I have a strong stomach that day!

    Let's air mail some Celeste over in exchange for some Grandiosa. 😆

    Oh I’ve never had Ellio’s before! I’m thinking it’s probably regional and we’re on different coasts xD

    Oh man, Elios is total trash! 😆

    I think this pic looks better than I remember. It is a true industrial product!

    You take these planks out, and the bottom is perforated to break into three pieces if you want.

    Couldn't find pic of the big case it used to come in, but me and my brother were just basically alone all summer on school break with a case of this that would just be replaced as necessary. Stuff like this is what got me to learn to cook, so I appreciate it in a roundabout way.

    That looks like the pizza my HS cafeteria would serve, except it doesn't appear quite as greasy.

    Eh, I don't fault institutional kitchens for the rectangles. When you have to feed a ton of people, maximizing oven space is important.

    It’s a reference to Teen Girl Squad! The best cartoon ever made.
