Reddit Says This Aldi Pizza Looks Just Like The Picture On The Box
It can feel like the end result of a frozen meal looks wildly different from what's on the box or in the ads. There's a whole subreddit called Expectation Vs Reality focusing on this phenomenon. That's why when Aldi's Italian Crust Stone Baked Veggie Pizza, from the celebrated Mama Cozzi's line, looks as advertised, it's cause for a celebration. In the Aldi forum of Reddit, one user posted to give the grocery store its due.
"Always amazed at how accurate the pizza is compared to the picture on the box," the user posted. People posted to agree and serve the pizza's praises. "I just had this pizza a couple weeks ago and it was fantastic!!! So many veggies! And yes, [it] looks just like the picture on the box!" a Redditor user excitedly exclaimed. Posters especially loved the amount of veggies that came on the pie. Some lamented that it's not a year-round product and mentioned stocking up whenever they see them in stores. At $3.99 a pizza, it's a pretty good deal!
How to get the most out of your Aldi frozen pizza
On top of celebrating how the pizza looked and tasted, plenty of Reddit users chimed in with tips and tricks to get the most out of their pizza. The suggestions ranged from alternate methods of baking to topping additions.
A few people recommended a convection oven. Having the hot air able to cook the pizza from all sides is one of the ways restaurants make their pizzas stand out from home cooking. Others recommended a pizza stone, then some time spent under the broiler to finish it without burning the bottom.

One Reddit commenter got extra creative, saying, "Cook an egg on top, it's like an omelet breakfast pizza." The great thing about a good frozen pizza is it can be a base with many avenues of customization!
