OT: Little Caesars Hot n' Ready: Delicious pizza with great value? Or low class garbage?

Not the best pizza in the world, but it is pretty solid, and that amount for that price is amazing. So sad that there isn't one in Boston

As others have said, spring for the deep dish and the gar-par crust. Great value as it's still good the next day cold, so you can get a couple meals out of it. As far as "value pizzas" go, it's a good option.

Sounds like the title of a midget porno flick.

Once upon a time, there was a Little Caesar's in the Michigan Union.  And on a day almost two decades ago, said company annoucned their greatest invention since "Pizza! Pizza!" -- the $5 pizza deal on Wild Wednesdays.  And oh, Oh! the students flocked from what seemed like miles, with a line extending almost to the front door of the Union.  And the students all slept well those nights, their tummies full of digusting greasy yummness cheap pizza, and their hearts still full of joy from having won the National Championship in football.

I would eat Little Caesars every Wednesday for a year just to have another National Championship.

It's cheap pizza. Nothing more, but nothing less, either. Adjust your expectations accordingly. 

Domino's was pretty solid when I was in college, but they've really gone downhill with their products. 

I live three blocks from Jet's. If I want decent/good pizza, I'm walking to Jet's. 

It's like fucking with out a condom. You never know what you're going to get... Happy ending or a lifetime worth of regret.

I think LC was better back then but also, I liked eating about any pizza as a kid. When they started the pizza-pizza back in the 80s, I think if fell a few notches for me.  My wife makes a killer homemade margarita pizza! The only pizza I eat now a days!

I grew up on Little Caesars pizza (back when it came in the big white sleeves) and to me it's the essence of what pizza should be. I also lived in a house behind the Union back when they would have $5 pizzas on just one day of the week. I can fondly remember nights when half of my housemates would make the trek over so that we could gorge ourselves on deliciousness. However, now that I'm older, I literally can't stomach the stuff. I might as well just eat it from my porcelain throne. So... Absolute delicious, cheap as hell, gorge worthy awfulness. But I'll hunt you down if you say bad things about it.

But given my kids only like cheese pizza, it's a lot easier to stomach getting them the $5 hot and ready for pizza and movie night.  I doubt I'd get it otherwise, but actually not getting birch slapped by my wallet for ordering takeout is a nice thing.

It cost them $1.19 to make.

Noawadays you can get a medium from dominos for $8 so...

I camped my way across the country. After 6 weeks of freeze dried camping food I broke down, drove into a small town and picked up a Little Caesars Hot n' Ready. After 2 slices, the remainder went into the campgrounds dumpster.

can we officially turn this into a best pizza in Michigan thread?

Here's one vote for Loui's on Dequindre & 9 Mile.  
Horrible dank atmosphere, used to be cash only (probably money laundering just south of the hazel park race track)
but oh man the deep dish pizza was amazing and always put Buddy's to shame.

Found out recently that you can add the butter parmesan sauce from their crazy bread to any pizza you want free of charge... Enjoy!

It's not bad for what it is. Great when you have hungry kids and need to eat quickly.

And Dear Lord do we need football season to start when we get into topics like these.

In my experiences, the biggest variable is location; the further you get from the Pizza Man's places of worship (JLA and CoPa), the more the pizza suffers.  

It's a white trash move.  Almost as bad as eating gas station hot dogs.

Garbage.

I could go for some right now. For 5 bucks, its a great deal.

Lol

little caesars tastes like the box that another slightly less-terrible pizza sat in.

I prefer

The $2.50 mini pizza from Geppettos. Of course you need to order 2 to meet the $5 minimum for delivery and you need a time machine set to 1989

Drove to science summer camp. Realized I forgot promised lunch snacks etc for kids. Went to little Caesars and got everything for 20 bucks. Was yummy. 10/10. Would forget lunch again.

One day free work, my wife asked if I would pick up pizza on the way home. Not thinking I simply searched "hot and ready Portland" from my work computer. A lot of heavily NSFW material immediately appeared. I had to turn myself into the IT watchers and search from my phone.

I can't stand Hot 'N' Ready Pizza it taste like Pizza you get at supermarket deli which is better than Little Caesars Hot 'N' Ready. Sorry Mike Ilitch but you're Pizza Chain sucks never eating there again.

Back when Little Sleazers was in the Union I use to get the pizza for free. A guy in my Freshman English class worked there and he'd give me the pizzas that people ordered but never picked up. It seems there were a rash of underclassmen who would place an order with no intention of ever picking them up. When you had West Quad food for more than a month, a free Sleazer's pizza wasn't hard to pass up. And did I mention it was free?
