Cost of store brand premade pizza: $6-8, 15 minutes cook time, versus Cost of homemade pizza:
$2.00 for half block of store brand mozzarella cheese (Pre-shredded cheese has additives in it to keep it from clumping.) 1/2 onion - $0.50 2 cloves garlic $0.25 4 ounces tomato paste $0.50 Dry basil, oregano, bay leaf, parsley, paprika $0.10 2 cups flour $0.30 Packet of yeast $0.30
Total cost of ingredients: $4.45 Ingredient wise, I’m saving $1 - 4.
The real cost is time. Prep time/clean time: Making dough, chopping veg, making sauce, shredding cheese, bake time, and washing dishes, is 2.5 hours (My hourly wage is $28) so that’s a $70 cost in terms of time. That cost will be variable depending on a person’s hourly wage. Looks like premade, frozen, store brand gets you the best bang for the buck.

Yup I also ended up migrating to the restaurants/cafe's own apps for pickup
I might have 47 food related apps on my phone now but beats a fuggin 30% charge to the restaurant

Why even make pizza? What is it really? Bread, cheese, toppings, and tomato sauce. I can knock that down to $0.25 or less per pizza.
Take a slice of bread, spread with tomato sauce, top with cheese and toppings, then broil until toppings melt. Want a calzone? Add a second piece of bread on top of the end, broil until toasted.
Boom. Pizza.
.../s ?
replies:
I built an outside oven and hit that up for pizza and bread. Also take the top off for the cast iron so I can slow cook pork shoulder and whatnot.
It's really easy, cheap, high quality.
I wish I could make a pizza at home for $1.50. For $1.50, I can make the crust. No sauce, no cheese, no toppings.
"Hey, Jimmy, gimme a pie with nothin'!"
"Nothin'?"
It is still cheaper to buy everything for a pepperoni or cheese pizza to make at home than even a Little Ceasars pizza, tho. Can make a bigger pizza, too.
replies:
who pays 8$ for two frozen pizzas though? My go-to vegan Pizza from Lidl is about 1,30€ each.
But yea, making them yourself is even cheaper than that.
