I tend to agree on both counts. Both “Pizzas” and “Burgers” from the national chains SUCK! You are MUCH better off cooking your own burger, or buying from a local restaurant that patties their own meat. Pre-made burger patties are terrible too!. Also, if you are going to make your own burgers, AVOID “ hamburger meat” from Wal-Mart(their stuff doesn’t even resemble red meat, in taste or appearance). You would be just as well to go to McDonald’s, or east something else! Get your meat as local as possible.(local stores, regional chains if you can’t find local)

The same applies to Pizza. My wife and I make an awesome home made pizza, but it can get a bit expensive. When we don’t want to fix our own, we’ll get one from a local pizza chain. They are FAR superior to the National chain pizza places.

Used to, the food from the national chains wasn’t THAT bad, but they have went way down hill over the past few years. I believe they are cutting corners on their ingredients and quality to save a quarter or two, here and there. I’d rather pay a dollar more for a good burger than to get a bun full of suckage!

Next time you’re at Five Guys get a bacon cheese dog. Add jalapenos, crispy bacon and melted American cheese, and get a regular order of Cajun fries. Five Guys will refill your Styrofoam cup with fries for free. Dip your fries in malt vinegar, then ketchup.

Target has an excellent, truly gourmet quality frozen pizza. The brand is Archer Farms, which is their generic brand, but it’s handmade in Italy and has an ingredient list about 5 items long — just the bare basics with no artificial junk or preservatives. You have to read the packaging carefully though because not all of the Archer Farms pizzas are the Italian ones.
