I am debating walking down to the 24 hour McD's on Stephen Ave right now for some midnight munchies.

Good idea? Is it sketch down there at night?

Serious? I don't think that place is ever not sketchy.

They were a Pilsbury product, called Pizza Bundles. I agree; they were heaven! You could buy them at all of the grocery stores, about 15 years ago as you say.

Since they disappeared, I still look through the freezer sections when I walk buy. For 15 years, I looked.... Then, in the spring of 2012, Costco here in Calgary actually had them stocked! They are now called Pizza Bites. But, there was one shipment of them, and that's it. They actually were as good as I remembered them; crunchy little pizza snacks. I went back and bought 9 boxes! I still have 2 left.

Since then, I have looked everywhere for them. I have had no luck finding them. Pilsbury's website doesnt do a great job of listing their products, and I cant find them there either.

Given that Costco just had them, I have to assume they are available for purchase somewhere in North America. Who knows ... I'd sure love to be able to buy them at will.

Anyone know any more? Where are they sold?

I walked by 2 weeks ago .... it was closed for renovations. I would call first to make sure it is actually open again.

Renovated their clientele? Once winter comes it will be a defacto homeless shelter / drug transaction center.

Long gone - there's an office building up already where the Indian school used to be, and you can walk down a grassy hill that would have been Ernest Manning before.

I loved McD's pizzas.

The thing I really miss is the Chicken Ceasar Pita from Wendy's, though. I think they had it from ~'97 - ~'01. That thing was magic.

The thing I miss most from McDonalds is shaker fries. Nobody except for my brother and I seem to remember them though. I know for sure they had BBQ and sour cream and onion flavors.

They came out with those for like a month at time or something annually for a few years, I think.

I loved the pizza, however, something inside the pepperoni didn't agree with me and the 24 hours after consuming one produced some toxic results.

Just a few more pages of posts and the advertising revenue from McDonalds should start rolling right in.
