After a thorough analysis of the taste, texture, and balance of the ingredients, Foodie's reviewer determined that Newman's Own Thin and Crispy Supreme Pizza, when cooked according to the package instructions, was one of the worst. In terms of taste, the flavor of the sauce was overwhelming, leading to an unbalanced experience. On top of that, this pizza failed to deliver on the "crispy" part of the "thin and crispy" description. The size of the pizza was also disappointing, with only three servings per box.
Risks and solutions to consider before skipping
On a Reddit thread titled "Newman's Own Thin Crispy Pizza is a 'Yes Please!'" there were mixed reviews. One user said: "I just ate it and it tasted like cardboard, one of the worst frozen pizzas I ever had." Luckily, should you believe in second chances, there are ways you can improve this pizza. In the same Reddit thread another user described how parmesan cheese and red pepper flakes give the pizza an overall flavor boost by saying, "Grate some Parm on, add red pepper flakes, and these are in the top 5% of frozen pizzas."
On YouTube, a dedicated frozen pizza reviewer made the Newman's Own Thin and Crispy Supreme Pizza in a cast iron pan, at a higher heat of 550 degrees Fahrenheit and baked it for only seven minutes. This goes against the cooking instructions on the box, but seems to have resulted in a very crispy, satisfying crust. Additionally, you could try our hack for upgrading frozen pizza crust – which is brushing the crust with oil or melted butter. However, if you're looking for a frozen supreme pizza that doesn't require any extra effort, we'd skip this one altogether.
