The crust was crusty. The cheese was cheesy. The tomatoes were tomato(y). The sauce was mild and slightly sweet. The cheese could’ve been more plentiful. The arugula was not noticeable. The center was less done than the crust. The crust was a nice toasty bread. The pizza was from Italy no less. While this is an okay frozen pizza, there’s not much to distinguish it from other quality frozen pizzas.

Nothing special. Just like the way this guy sort of pops out of the picture. Long lens, short distance.

Trader Joe’s Breakfast Blend
This is perhaps the worst coffee at Trader Joe’s. Harsh and not tasting much like coffee at all, this breakfast blend may explain why so many people skip breakfast.

Half between steel cut and rolled oaks, these oats have a chewy texture surrounded by a very thick creamy ‘soup’ . It’s sort of a best of both worlds approach. The package also carries the USDA Organic seal.
