Italians have great raw ingredients, if only somebody would teach them how to use them.

From an European perspective, it has always been a point of divergence with my American friends and colleagues. They always want the fattier, more sugar-full version arguing there's more taste and it's "real food", but in our point of view it taste like junk and don't compete a second with a home-made traditional one (and are pricier !).

That. Unless Domino’s has a completely different pricing strategy in the US, They are the expensive option.

I like eating dominos once in a while, it’s a great sweet fatty snack, but it’s not cheaper.

Can't speak for the US as a whole but everywhere I've lived Domino's is the cheapest. I can get a medium 2 topping pizza at dominoes for $6.99. We have 3 family run traditional pizza places within driving distance of where I live, for a 2 topping medium pizza they cost: $14.75, $15.99, or $18.99.

Little Caesars, but they're cheating as the pizza is mostly an afterthought. They're actually a distribution company.

Little Caesars: It's hot and ready!

Us: Is it good?

LC: It's hot, and it's ready.

It’s the second cheapest here if you for something you don’t cook at home after buying it frozen.

Little Ceaser’s would give an Italian aneurysm, buts like 5 bucks for a week of calories.

Little Caesars isn't a pizza company. That's just a bonus. They're actually a distribution company

Domino's is way cheaper than an actual Italian pizza in the US.

It's also shit pizza, I'd rather buy a frozen one and put my own stuff on it. Then it's cheaper and better.
