What You Should Know

You'll find this in the frozen aisle as a convenient, 'better-for-you' alternative to traditional frozen pizza—often picked up for busy weeknights, movie nights, or when someone wants a lower-carb option. The product feels comforting and slightly indulgent but the texture and long list of modified starches, gums, isolates and flavoring agents point to an industrially reformulated product (expect a uniform, chewy crust and reconstituted sauce), typical of ultra-processed foods.
