Default It's not Delivery, it's Discontinued!

https://globalnews.ca/news/9453352/n...-lean-cuisine/

Nestle Canada is no-longer going to sell Delissio (DiGiorno in the US), Stouggers, Lean Cuisine, and Life Cuisine. They are manufactured in the US and imported here.

Not a big loss for me, as Frozen Pizzas (especially rising ones) are gross anyway, you pay $10 for 90% dough and almost no toppings)

I would do the occasional frozen pizza but I would just buy the cheese ones and add my own toppings and then extra fresh shredded cheese.

I don't really eat any of those but seems like a huge thing, feels like that stuff is half the frozen aisle at Safeway.

After work today, I saw a guy at the Sobey's in Legacy load his cart up with apprx 10-12 Delissios. Frozen pizza hoarding?

Why does anyone buy a frozen pizza when you can now get vacuum sealed crusts , cured pepperoni, cheese , sauce etc for basically the same cost and make yourself a much better oven pizza for the same price - and get 3 servings ?

The roof of my mouth will be happy.

I burned the roof of my mouth dozens of times as I plowed back Delissios when I was in my late teens, early 20's as it was the only frozen pizzas my parents bought.

On a side note, I only recently discovered Coco Brooks frozen pizzas. They destroy any grocery store frozen pizza out there.

Same price? Some frozen pizzas are $4 on sale.

I still keep one in the freezer and eat them occasionally, its a guilty pleasure for me going back to my gaming days.

But now I've discovered the Save on Foods fresh made pizzas for 11.95 and there really is no comparison..

I haven't bought a frozen pizza in over 10 years since I got a bread machine with a pizza dough setting. Throw in the flour/water/etc, hit the button and walk away, 90 mins later you have a nice ball of dough. Easy, cheap and way better than frozen or the prepackaged crap.
