California Pizza Oven! Unfortunately the closest one is about an hour away, I love pizza, but not that much.

It depends. For fresh, I prefer the Italian place that I used to work at. It wasn't a chain, though, it was only local. For frozen pizzas, I like Red Baron, extra cheese, and I usually throw on some fresh stuff - onions, green peppers, mushrooms, basil, cheese, maybe a little feta.

There was this place back in Colorado called Papa Murphy's my dad and I used to get a lot. It was like a deep dish pizza, that had like an inch of toppings with a high wall of crust around the outside of the pizza. It was probably about 2 inches thick uncooked. (you would get it there uncooked, and bring it home and bake it yourself. The prices were pretty cheap because of this.)

I love those little cheap ass Totinos pizzas, especially the ones with sausage. The sausage is tiny crumbles instead of chunks, and for some reason I really like it. I just wish they had more cheese on them.

I used to live off 1 topping Papa John's specials, always with bacon and the sole topping. When I moved out of my apartment in Phoenix I had a stack of like 25 Papa John's boxes to throw out.

Hahaha I remember all of those boxes and how we were talking about making a chair out of them.  Oh yeah, they have Papa Murphy's out here now and they are really good.  Out of all the chain delivery places I like Papa John's the most though.  There's a local place here called Valentino's that's really good as well.

We regularly get Papa Murphy's for take and bake stuff.  Pretty awesome.  I usually have a few extra things of my own to throw on top of it before we bake it, too.

I'm actually not a big pizza person (at least compared to what the average person seems to like), but I do have a weakness Totino's too. I know it's really bad and I'm not all that proud of it, but I like what I like. Something about the sweet sauce just makes it fun, although I imagine I would hate sauce that sweet on a "real" pizza.

Just to show I don't have a complete lack of taste, I do like this one Chicago style place right new to me, Zacharies. Idol, Que, Keebs, and Pryo can back me up on it's yumminess. They do the whole deep dish thing, but they put the cheese underneath the chunky sauce to keep it more moist. It's awesome. I always get extra tomatoes just to make it that much better.

I think I saw a few Pizza Companies while I was in Thailand over the summer, but we never ate at one. We did go to an independent Thai Pizza place one time though and I imagine the menus were pretty similar. It wasn't bad. I had something that was sorta like a Hawaiian pizza, but with chicken and hot sauce. Actually, it seems like most of the pizzas at those places were variations of Thai pizzas in general, or at least something from that style. Generally sweeter or spicier than the average pizza in the States.

I can back Sy up on the goodness of Zachary's.  It's pretty much the best pizza ever.  The reason Julia and I don't go much is because of the two joints around here, they're both always super crowded.  So either we have some with Sy and Aimee because they order it (and we can walk down and get it) or we hit the one nearer to us just as a special treat.  It's also pretty expensive (but worth it).  Keebs will certainly remember dropping large sums on a couple of those suckers during OWmeet, and we all took turns carrying them because they were so heavy and everybody wanted to be amazed at just how heavy two pizzas could be.

california pizza is good too but a bit pricey..

Price club? I can't remember the name, but it's like walmarts.. they have a pizza stand and i like their plain cheese pizzas.

I like homemade pizzas.. did you know the secret to good crust is not just herbs but soda!
