So much for the What and the Why. As for the How, we determined which

Why isn't Hungry Howies on this list? It's worse than even Pizza Hut!
I've not heard of it. Is it a regional restaurant? The list seems
to be of national chains, which might explain it.
Pizza Hut was the chain with the least amount of flavor and
creativity.
They used to be great, back in the day.
But 1988 is a long time ago.
Little Caesars had fairly tasty toppings, nice sauces, and a
delicious blend of mozzarella and Muenster cheese that they used on
everything. In fact, if I had to choose one cheese from any fast-food
pizza chain, it would be this one.
Havn't had a Little Caesars pizza since the 1980's when they were 2-4-1.
Pizza-Pizza :)
Little Caesars kept us college kids fed in the late 80's and
early 90's. They were filling and the entire group could eat for very
little money.
Thinking back, I recall the toppings being a bit lacking. But not
bad for the price.
If you're trying to build an overall pizza buffet for a lot of people,
go for Domino's because it has the most options.
If I had to sum this chain up in a single sentence, I would say that
Papa Johns pizzas are pretty good but not great.
I disagree. Papa John's pizzas have a nasty texture crust. I think they use >> extra gluttonous dough or something that m akes it too chewey for my liking.
The bottom used to have, and maybe still does, a gritty corn meal
type coating. I didn't hate it, but PJ's was never my first choice in
Pizza. Mostly due to the bottom of the crust.
Toppings were always good, as I recall.
Papa John's is as bad as Little Caesars, but it's nowhere near as cheap.I disagree. Papa John's pizzas have a nasty texture crust. I think they use >>> extra gluttonous dough or something that m akes it too chewey for my liking.

Therefore, it's the worst. I don't buy Domino's or Pizza Hut because for
a little more, I can get the local pizza. It's this place. >https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SOAYD03ZKIE
That is NOT the icky St. Louis Style pizza. It's pretty darned good, and >their sausage is excellent.
The best bargain pizza is LC's Extramostbestest Sausage for $8.49.
