What's the Best Frozen Pizza? Jack's Vs. Digiourno
1. Cooking Time
Jack's definitely wins this contest. A Jack's Pizza only takes 8-10 minutes to cook if you let it defrost on the counter for a few minutes while your oven heats up. With most Digiourno Pizza's, the crust has to rise. They are also thicker, and they can cook for 20-30 minutes before they are done. If you are really hungry or in a big hurry, Jack's is the pizza for you.
2. Taste
Although Digiourno's crust is tastier than Jack's, my opinion is that Jack's sauce is much better than Digiourno's. Digiourno's has kind of a sweet taste to it that I'm not too crazy about. Although Digiourno has more topping options than Jack's. Jack's pizzas come in the standard pepperoni, canadian bacon, supreme, meat lovers, and cheese. I have seen some Mexican Style Jack's, but I was not too impressed. Digiourno's has a wheat crust option, roasted vegetable, garlic crust, spinach and garlic, even a meatball marinara! If you are looking for selection, Digiourno's is probably the way to go.
3. Crust
Digiourno's crust wins hands down. Not only do they have several crust choices, they are chewy and so tasty you could eat the crust by itself if you wanted. Jack's is thin and almost cracker-like, which is good, but definitely not the highlight of the pizza. If you are a crust fanatic, Digiourno will not leave you disappointed.
4. Fat, Calories, and Carbs
I will compare a Jack's original pepperoni pizza to a Digiourno Rising Crust pepperoni pizza.
Jacks: (Serving size= 122g or about 2 slices)
Fat: 16.g
Protein: 15 g
Calories: 323
Carbohydrates: 29.5g
Digiourno: (Serving size 134g or about 1 slice)
Fat:13g
Protein: 15g
Calories: 330
Carbohydrates: 39g
It looks like they are pretty comparable in nutritional content, but if you are counting carbs, Jack's might be a little better for you.
If you haven't tried either one of these pizzas, I would highly reccommend it! They are both very tasty. I usually keep Jack's around because they are cheaper and take up less room in my freezer, but Digiourno's is a good alternative to ordering a pizza for delivery. Try them both, and see what you think!

Post a CommentYou have to compare apples to apples. Jack's has a rising crust version that should be compared to Digiorno. In my opinon Jack's rising crust wins hands down.
Arron...Duh!Are you really that stupid or just trying to make a point...What country did you grow up in!
I have wet dreams thinking about Jack's pizza.
You forgot the most important part. Jacks are like 2 bucks each and Digiorno is 6+
I love to Jack on pizza!
hello, So i nocticed how you guys call your pizzas frozen pizzas. and umm.... I just thought that the name is kind of misleading. Being called frozen pizzas i was once confused and tried to eat one of your pizzas frozen. Then I called my friend and asked if frozen pizzas were suposed to taste so bad. Then explained to my friend that I tried to eat it frozen then they started laughing at me. He then explained to me that I was suposed to cook the pizza before eating it. So my request to you, Jacks frozen pizzas is that you change your products name to "Jacks should be cooked pizzas". So that this confusion will not happen again.
Thank you and God bless,
Aaron
Well, Jack, these are just my two favorite types of pizza. I enjoy both of them, and I buy both often. When I wrote the article, Jacks had not yet come out with their thick crust, by the way. You need to calm down. And for the record, I did look up the spelling, but I guess the website where I found it had it spelled wrong.
I don't understand why you compare "Digiorno" (which you misspelled) with "Jack's" thin-crust style pizza?? "Jack's" has an awesome thick crust original pizza which would be a great comparison. Instead you compare "Digiorno" thick-crust to "Jack's" cheaply made thin-crust version! If your doing an article like this make sure you spell the names right; and also let the readers know what your comparing, be it they are totally different pizza styles...
