Dominos is like pretty much every other pizza delivery chain in america in that it's okay but not good. People who insist it is disgusting are just as spergy as people who insist they just can't listen to top 40 music but if you can find a decent local place it's probably better quality.
I dont mind dominoes but I must agree that the local place which has three elderly italians at a table talking to each other as a permanent fixture is better.

Really the only thing I actively dislike about dominos is my local one seems to employ mostly older people as drivers so I'll have some dude nearly twice my age show up with a pizza and I just sorta feel guilty about the situation.

Is it my imagination or did papa johns used to taste a lot better


i usually get dominos now because they have better prices, and taste better, than the local cheap chain round here (the individual local pizza places cost way more but do taste better). 'za hut is way too greasy for my tastes. little ceaser's used to be in my area but mostly got replaced by the cheap local chain mentioned above and i have no recollection of how it tastes but it looks gross

No problem, I am completely willing to die on the "stop pretending to not like thing that is popular because it's inoffensive and easy to like, everyone knows you're only so vocal in your distaste because you care way too much about what people think of your consumer interests" hill.

Like it can't be stated enough that absolutely no one cares more than the people pretending to not like popular thing about what is popular and I will repeat it at every opportunity. Anyone who simply doesn't enjoy popular thing because they don't enjoy it will never proactively mention it to you or try to insist it's bad, they just won't partake in it.

I eat Domino's in Japan because it's better than the rest of the garbage they call pizza. I mean, you can have $50 shrimp, corn, and mayonnaise pizza but why. It also has pepperoni, which is weirdly rare.

I feel pizza is pretty much done as a food choice. It'll still be around and people will still eat it, but's it never going to be that great anymore. In an era where even 7-11 sells pizza, maybe all pizza joints should just pack it in.

Let's try and get more Mexican food happening.

pizza hut has a surprising calorie to dollar ratio if you get the right deals.

if you do carry-out, you can get a two topping large pizza for eight bucks and some change. a large cheese pizza comes in at 2800 calories, so add in your toppings and that's just gravy, baby.

sadly, they do not offer gravy as a topping.

They've served billions of customers at this point I think they've got the winning formula. Maybe the spicy southwestern goodness of the Bell doesnt work with your English palette? Theres several flavor profiles you can try.

It varies by country but this is really only true if you eat at those ubiquitous pizza and kebob places. Any place that advertises its self as serving pizza and anything that isn't Italian is a sure sign you're in for some crappy pizza.

why would you steal from such a great institution. Tens of thousands of hard working employees, hundreds of thousands of farmers/ranchers/factoryman work extremely hard for you to have the opportunity to taste amazing pizza hot at your door for a low price. Shame

The local Dominios near me is staffed by the biggest loving morons ever. True story:

So I order a carry out pizza on my home computer and tear out without my credit card, which I left by the keyboard. Which is on me, and yeah, stupid and I don't realize it until I'm standing at the pizza place after a 25 minute walk.

I explain what happened and offer to pay in cash after verifying the whole order. "We can't give you the pizza & sides! You don't have the card!" I give them my phone number, email, time of order - but nope, no card, no pizza. The option they give me is to repurchase it with cash (still paying the credit card one, too) and then they would re-make the order from scratch, rather than give me the loving food sitting right there.

Customer service at Dominos is only ahead of the local Pizza Hut which has a 20% chance of just never bothering to show up.

A) Taco Bell is amazing for a low tier fast food place (Del Taco is better though)
B) Taco Bell isn't Mexican food

Dominos UK has an absolutely crazy pricing policy, where I am a 12-inch with some kind of ordinary topping comes to £14.99 ($22). Or down the road I can get three 12-inch pizzas for £12.99. And it tastes the same (completely average fast food pizza). Actually the cheap place is slightly better as they put more toppings on.

Thanks for the input, Jeff!
For fast-food pizza, their 'handmade pan' pizzas are pretty alright for 9 bucks (two toppings). That's basically two meals for 4.50 each. Not bad. I mean, except for my health.

I have never tried anything but their pizza, despite all the marketing. I just sort of inwardly lol at that nonsense.

It sounds like you had an authentic Taco Bell experience.

Dominos is ok if you like cardboard covered in ketchup with some american cheese cooked in a microwave by a sex offender. I prefer to spend a little more and get real pizza from local places.

In commercials for Domino's Pizza, the chain's employees wage a never ending battle against the Noid, a gremlin who delays deliveries and carries a gun that can turn a pizza ice cold. Many viewers are amused by the Noid, Domino's says, but one of them took the advertising campaign personally. Last week Kenneth Noid, 22, walked into a Domino's Pizza shop in Chamblee, Ga., with a .357 Magnum revolver and took two employees hostage. When police arrived, he demanded $100,000 in cash, a getaway car and a copy of The Widow's Son, a 1985 novel about secret societies in an 18th century Parisian prison. All Noid got was the pizza he ordered. After a five-hour siege, the two employees slipped away and Noid gave himself up. According to police, Noid has "psychological problems" and believes that he has an "ongoing dispute with Tom Monaghan," the head of the Detroit-based Domino's chain.

many of dominos customers also carry guns that can turn a pizza delivery driver ice cold
