hello everyone this is running on empty food review well hello ladies gentlemen and everyone
watching welcome to this newest installment of the running on empty food review series i'm your host
the report of the week well here we are again i i am breaking out a wing collar this time around
uh for a big pizza this is this is the big one as they say
actually i've never heard anyone say that but i guess it is now i guess it is the big one
little caesars they have released a new pizza i always like doing these pizza reviews you know i
am a i am a pizza fiend as they say and uh it's always fun to just see what these places come up
with of course a lot of establishments when it comes up to making new pizzas adding something
to the menu whatever it might be a common theme is the crust do something with the crust you know a
stuffed crust or a thing or whatever it is but the crust is a very very common uh point of focus here
in terms of new pizzas this is no exception little caesars has just released their pepperoni and
cheese stuffed crust pizza now the name is self-explanatory i was gonna try to make some
sort of joke about how how difficult to decipher the name is or something but that didn't work out
uh the pepperoni and cheese stuffed crust pizza what is it it is exactly what they say it is so
there are no olives this time around um but there is pepperoni and there is cheese inside the crust
so it's a stuffed crust pizza instead of just regular cheese there's pepperoni along with it
now it's not just any regular pizza though you have yourself an extra most bestest
pepperoni pizza so that comes with extra pepperoni on the pizza itself as well as munster
and mozzarella cheeses in the crust you have mozzarella cheese not mozzarella pepperoni those
are two different things mozzarella cheese and pepperoni in the crust and then the cherry on top
with no actual cherries involved nor any sort of cherry flavor
the crust is brushed with butter and then parmesan cheese is sprinkled on
akin to the uh crazy bread which uh it's kind of like i guess some people are saying it's like a
little bit of everything you know you're getting some extra pepperoni you're getting the crazy
bread all in one and that's if we have ourselves here price for this ten dollars little caesars is
uh one of those establishments that you know they try to say look if you're just looking for some
uh cheap eats you know if you find yourself in a situation where you're rather impecus
and that you still want that pizza hey we're here for you and uh little caesars from my experience
especially considering that this large you know giant stuffed crust pizza is only 10 bucks based
on prior reviews i always find that little caesars is one of two things that's either outstanding and
it's like i can't believe this pizza is this good for this price or i'll kind of sit there and shrug
and i'll say yeah i don't know i guess you kind of get what you pay for so that's what we have there
in in addition to pizza they are also serving up peace of mind
creature on the moped this time it showed up in a car so they need to update the box
and uh i will say this it's a heavy box this is one of the heaviest pizzas i've seen in a while if
it's oh a very greasy pizza too look at that all right let's open this up let's see what we have
oh yeah this is a greasy pizza
there we go you can see that's what the pizza looks like right there
you can see the box and all the grease on it glistening
grease on the pizza but you can see that pepperoni you can see the parmesan on the
crust there and all of that lots of pepperoni bit of cheese also so there's the pizza lots
of seasoning on that crust though let me tell you let's get that thumbnail shot real quick
my my here's my concern and i just say this i'll hold up a slice of course so
you can see it you know what i'm just going to be brazen all right i'm going to be brazen
and i'm going to go with the greasiest oh yeah
with my alien-like appendages holding it up look at all that grease in there well
that thing is packed with grease pepperoni lots of it so here is my concern all right
my concern is that with all this grease it's going to be like because i know people like their grease
with their fast food etc but it's going to be like it's too much of a good thing you know and it's
going to be overwhelming that's my concern will it hold true i don't know so we'll try out the pizza
we'll try out the crust try to get a well-rounded assessment thereof and that's what we have so
the pepperoni and cheese stuffed crust pizza from little caesars going in
so
pizza so far and i'm just going to kind of brush over the pizza
because we're all focused on the crust and i mean you can get a extra most bestest pizza and you can
look at my review of that if you want that in more detail pizza so far is basic very greasy a
lot of spice in the pepperoni this time around but still some nice robust tomato sauce which is good
now i'm just going to dive right into the crust
so
hmm
it's not bad but where's the pepperoni that's what i'm looking for
well tastes good i'll say that i
this pizza is over 3000 calories i'll say that and i understand why
it's not bad say that
in terms of the crust the greasiness of it look at all that it's certainly a uh
this is your fast food pizza all right in terms of the flavor though
it's extremely it's really really buttery really greasy they were very liberal in terms of the
application of the um garlic butter on the crust so every single bite of it i mean it's just packed
with that garlic butter but not it's not overboard there's yes there is lots of it but it's just like
an extra garlicky breadstick i mean nothing really bad about that uh the cheese good amount of it
standard stuffed crust you know in terms of the mozzarella cheese so that kind of works a little
bit to counteract some of the garlic but i'm looking for pepperoni so let's try this slice out
hmm and i'm not really finding any you see that's my it's my issue
nothing to be found there did they forget to put pepperoni in the crust
well
here it is look at this look at this we found it it's like this is like finding buried treasure
look at it there it is that's the pepperoni in the crust
oh we lucked out and the reason why you might say oh you're wasting your time you're wasting
my time with this review bro why don't you just cut to when you find a piece
of pepperoni because i just want to give you the real deal that's what i want to do
and after all that here's the thing at least in my specific case to be aware of
the pizza is like a basic um extra most bestest pepperoni pizza so it's not bad at all lots
and lots of pepperoni you could clearly see that by now pizza's fine nothing really to to
you know rant or rave about completely fine the crust we've already established that it's very
buttery very very garlicky um i really do like these seasoned crusts i think it's a fantastic
addition and i haven't any sort of complaint or problem with that and a good amount of mozzarella
therein likewise however my issue is that you could clearly see and i think this is more or less
a um an individual type of thing you'll probably get this and there will be more pepperoni in the
crusts than in my case but you saw me eat that slice you saw me show you the cross section
you saw me look at the second slice dissect it essentially and there was no pepperoni
three slices is what it took to find one single piece of pepperoni compared again to the very very
heavy distribution of the pepperoni on the rest of the pizza when they say the pepperoni and
cheese stuffed crust pizza granted the pepperoni is an equal part and you expect there at least
to be a decent amount of it in the crust the amount in the crust in my case is negligible
and factoring in how much butter and garlic and seasoning and all that you can't taste it
it's like all right it's i guess it's there but it gets lost in everything else and that's the thing
this is a tasty pizza i like it probably it's healthier for the mind than it is anything else
but it's still it still tastes good i i do like it and again i think the crust is delicious um my
fear was that it was going to be overwhelming too much and it does look like it's a lot and
it's a very filling pizza it's at a good price though 10 bucks i do wish though that in my case
there was more pepperoni and as a result the amount of pepperoni in here is negligible doesn't
really make much of a difference whether there is or isn't any pepperoni i would be willing to say
if i were to take the amount of pepperoni that were in the stuffed crust
and extrapolate that and assume that it was more even i would still be willing to say that just
there's so many other prevailing flavors the lots of the mozzarella cheese the garlic butter etc
etc that the pepperoni doesn't really make much of a difference still it's a good pizza though
just understand that you're pretty much going to taste the pepperoni everywhere but the crust
still a delicious flavorful pizza though but factoring in the fact that factoring in the fact
that the rest of the um the pizza is good but the crust itself lacking a little bit on the pepperoni
i'm just going to be giving this a 7 out of 10 flat i've been given a lot of things 7 out of 10.
still look good pizza it just doesn't necessarily live up to its name completely but that's what we
have for you there again the pepperoni and the fla and the crust gets lost in some of
the other flavors all right that's all that i have for you ladies and gentlemen i'm your host
the report of the week trying out the pepperoni and cheese stuffed crust pizza a decent pizza
at a decent price just wish the pepperoni was a little more prevalent in the crust that's all
