DiGiorno for One Traditional Crust Four Cheese Pizza Product Review

Kassidy Emmerson
I had a bummer day. It was just my pets and me at home tonight, so I decided to find some quick and easy comfort food for dinner. A check of the freezer produced a small pizza Guy had bought for his lunch. Being a female, I figured my bad day trumped his need for a pizza lunch, so I decided to give it a try. If it tasted good, I'd buy him another one. Read this informative DiGiorno For One Traditional Crust Four Cheese Pizza product review and find out if I had to make a trip to the store for Guy, or not!

Price and Availability

Guy found DiGiorno For One Traditional Crust Four Cheese Pizza at Kroger for $2.99. I know Wal-Mart also carries them. To find a product in your area, you can usually check the company website. But, Kraft Foods doesn't offer this service.

Preparation

You can cook a DiGiorno For One Traditional Crust Four Cheese Pizza in the oven or in the microwave. It takes about 5 minutes in the microwave or 16 - 18 minutes in a 425 degree oven. I figured the pizza would taste better being cooked in the oven. But, since time was short, I cooked my DiGiorno For One Traditional Crust Four Cheese Pizza in the microwave instead.

Taste Test and Conclusion

I've always like the full-size DiGiorno pizzas, so I thought this personal-size pizza would taste about the same. I was right. For a microwave pizza, the crust was crisp and chewy. I like a lot of toppings, but the plain cheese was really good, and nice for a change of pace.

The DiGiorno For One Traditional Crust Four Cheese Pizza tastes good, but what about those nutrition facts? By eating Guy's pizza, I think I took an alimentary bullet for him, wouldn't you say? To burn off the 720 calories, I now need to go bicycling at 9-1/2 miles-per-hour or play golf for a little over 2 hours. I can also mow the grass for nearly 2 hours, according to whatscookingamerica.net.

I give the taste of DiGiorno For One Traditional Crust Four Cheese Pizza a thumbs up. I have to give the nutritional facts a big thumbs down, though.

    I had a 2small slices (1/4 pizza) of Digiorno four cheese pizza for my dinner. I walk up @ 4 am with cramp and was hypotensive and almost had near death experience. I am going to report this to manuf.

    When it comes to frozen pizza, digiorno is always my #1 pick, although for less than the cost of a digiorno, I can get a large pizza from a restaurant.

    I decided to try the digiorno for one, and am greatly disapointed myself. The taste is not the same, and for me anyway, the sauce just has a bad taste. It leaves my mouth with a funny taste all day, and nothing I eat or drink the rest of the day taste right.

    This is just my opinion, as I'm sure that some people may prefer the for one's to the regular.

    I'll stick to the normal sized digiorno's and eat with other people.

    Haven't had one of these in ages. Guess I should buy one and place in my freezer, for a bad day.

    Sometimes only frozen pizza will do. Thanks for the review, Kassidy!

    I don't usually do frozen pizza, but when I do it's DiGiorno I turn to indeed (though you're right about its un-nutritional values). :o)
