    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.

      It has the most important aspect of cheap frozen pizza. Which is the cheese having built up on one side because it was shipped that way in the truck.

      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.

      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.
