    the change to Dominos around 2010? That may have had some focus group stuff behind it but their pizza before that was vile, one of the few success stories I can think of in the company facelift realm

      Well Lays is the worst chip out there but I don’t think they are serious about reformulating. There isn’t much you can do to make the chip better.

        I can enjoy a lays every once in a while, there’s some even worse potato chip makers, I can’t name them off the top of my head (they’ll kill me)

              because they’re formed out of powder instead of sliced

      Oh did Domino’s change? I remember having their pizza once when I was little back in like 1995 or some shit, thought it was absolutely disgusting (worse than the school cafeteria pizza), threw it out, and never ate from them again.

        it got much better to the point of being acceptable franchise pizza, and the crust was slightly garlicy if I am remembering correctly. All things get worse so it’s possible they need another reboot by now.

          It’s not good, but acceptable. Source: a friend insisted we order Dominos the other week

        For the price point, especially with discounts you get if you order online, it is about as good as you can find. Is it good pizza? Nah, it’s adequate pizza, but I can get two loaded ass medium pizzas for $23 after tax and that feeds me for two days. I even enjoy eating it as far as survival slop goes.

            Beans don’t cook themselves and hand themselves to me out of a window at 11PM in my good for nothing rural ass town after work.
