Pizza. Good pizza that is.

Pizza is like sex - it’s always good but sometimes it’s excellent.

Not from Bill English! The pizza, anyway. I have no idea about the other thing.

neb: Is it just me or are people listing things here that would be on top of my list of things I'd want to avoid eating at all costs?

How are we to know?!

Black Liquorice. I would eat this everyday if it wasnt a natural laxitive and on the plus side everyone in my household thinks it is terrible so i dont have to hide it😃

Common sense is not as common as you think.

Any one of my collection of single malts (no-one said alcohol couldn't be a treat) 🙂

I’m addicted to Nippys Chocolate Milk and recently I’ve been supplementing that with a Whittaker’s Dairy Milk Slab.

Pizza. Good pizza that is. Not the rubbish I had in the weekend that cost $5.

I've grown to like the various $5 pizzas from my local Dominios branch. Even simple things like adding the free spice options can make a standard Hawaiian or Pepperoni pizza quite tasty. Switching to the thin base can also be an improvement. I've tried similar priced pizzas from Pizza Hut every now and then and it's never as good as Dominos.

I do love the pizza from the Italian restaurant near where I grew up. I think they are proper Italians so not sure about the comment above that Italians should be avoided!

At the moment my treat is the Milk Shake lollies. I get these in bulk from Gilmores so it's not too expensive...!

I switched to thin base ages ago and yes it does improve the ~$5 pizzas. Could have something to do with the thin base balances the base to topping ratio? I also find Dominos aren't quite as oily as Pizza Hut based on the box after the fact which I'm sure is better for recycling as well.

And you expected $5 pizza to be good? :-)
