I've heard the buzz and even seen the commercials, so tonight I was looking forward to trying Italy's number one frozen pizza, which has now arrived in Boston area supermarkets. We sampled two styles (Funghi and Vegetale) of Dr. Oetker's Frozen Pizza for dinner tonight. We were impressed with the freshness and abundance of vegetables and mushrooms on each pizza. The thin crust was crispy and crunchy, and the Funghi pizza had hints of garlic and other seasonings that added flavor but weren't overwhelming.
We enjoyed the mushroom pizza more than the vegetable one, but both were extremely tasty and some of the best frozen pizza we have ever had - although we're less impressed with the packaging and brand name. The pizzas sell for a quite reasonable $4.99-$5.99. CPK and Digorno better figure out a way to compete with Oetker, because they have the potential to lose market share quickly.
