Summary

Darnell tackles Banquet's Mega Crustless Pizza and immediately calls it what it really is: cheese and tomato soup with meat. At just $3.49, the price is undeniable, and the 28 grams of protein hits hard for post-workout recovery. But here's where it gets real, the nutrition label screams danger with 90% of your daily saturated fat and 68% sodium in one frozen meal. Darnell's verdict? It tastes like pizza nostalgia, but as a chef, he'd rather make tomato soup from scratch. Consumer says it's fine. Chef says it's missing everything that makes food homemade. Overall score: C.

So, let's see what we're doing today

Today, we have Banquetss crustless pizzas

It's 28 g of protein, but does it have 28 g of flavor? Let's take this to the kitchen and let's give it the scorecard judgement. [Music] All right, welcome back

So, we are in

the kitchen now

You already seen us in the grocery store looking at this banquet mega crustless pizza

Three meats, baby

You know what I'm saying? What's the three meats they say? What are the three meats? Come on

Come on

Give them to me

Give them to me

Beef, sausage, and pepperoni

All right

So,

if you're wondering what is a crustless pizza, it's uh a cheese and tomato soup uh with meat inside of it

Cuz without the crust, that is what you're getting

Um this is beyond cut straight to the point there

All right, so let's get straight into this

Um it's a simple microwaving instructions

I mean, was it

2 minutes with the film on, then take it off, a minute without it? You know, everything you grew up eating

I mean, back in the day, frozen meals were on a whole another level

You say, we grew up with the little brownie inside of there that you couldn't wait to eat

Okay, back to this one

All right, so let's

try this out

Um, once again, I've said this many times, we need to give a lot more props to people who take uh food photography because these two do not by nature, man

Come on, man. just give us a picture and this is for every product be I know you're trying to sell the product but now that we're reviewing

them I feel like this is the place people are going to come to see the real deal about these products before they buy them if they buy them

Um so just give us what just sell the product as it is

Um and that's one thing I would encourage any product if you're starting it up no matter what it is sell the

product as it is

If this is what you want to sell it as make sure when I cook it it look like this

Please just makes it more believable

Makes me able to trust you more

I got trust issues

You know what I'm saying? With products how people

Um, so let's go ahead and dive into this

It actually like when it

cools down a little bit, it was a little soupy at the beginning, but I understand why

I mean, microwaving sauce and stuff, but when it cools down a little bit, it actually like comes together uh a little bit more

So, not not bad

Okay

Okay

Okay

I just see my little cheese pulls.

[Music] All right, we tasted this

I'm going to digest like my mind catch up with my taste buds and see what it thinks

But while it's doing it, let's get in the price

This was $349.

I mean, what more can you ask for? I mean, like that $349

I mean, you can't go nowhere and get a meal for that price

So, price-wise, I mean, A++

But also, I tell you this all the time

I tell you this many times

You're investing in your health

That's that's key

You know what I'm saying?

You invest in business

I mean, just you're investing in your health

Don't always think because it's a cheap price, it's the right price

But cheap price is right for most people

So, it is what it is

Um, price-wise, A+

I mean, it's affordable, man, for the masses

I want everybody to be able to eat

I love the

28 grams of protein that it has in it

Um, after I get done working out, I'm always trying to get protein back in my body, replenish my muscles

So, 28 g of protein is usually like I don't even know how much your body can take at one time, but it seems like this may be the number

Um, but price-wise, A+

Let's go

to nutrition

Nutritional value has 500 calories per serving

That's good

I mean, your daily amount is what, 2,000? So, I mean, that's good for one meal

Um, okay

Let's go

Good stuff

Protein A+

Saturated fats

Oh man, 90% of your

daily value of saturated fats, you know, and you got to watch that, man

Saturated fats, just imagine this

Saturated fats are the fats that at room temperature stay solid

You know what I'm saying? Like butter

Um, so I'm not a fan of it being 90% of your daily value of saturated fats

That's a lot.

And then sodium, again, most most frozen dinners are high in sodium

Um, as my great man partner behind you would say, Evan, u most most frozen products are are um always high in sodium

This is uh 68% of your daily value of sodium

That's a lot for one meal and it ain't a big meal

Um, but if you look at it,

man, this is the stuff I'm saying

Like, look at the volume

It says it says salt probably 1 2 3 uh 6 7 salt at least seven times on the on the nutrition like at the actual uh ingredients

Like that's a lot of salt added in different places from tomato

paste, from this, from that

Like the sausage has it in it

Like come on

You don't need that much salt to make a good dish

Uh, so that is uh nutritional wise, man

I would have to give this a uh probably like a D, but think of it like a report card

I mean, if you got

straight A's and you got one D, you still win in life

Let's get that clear

Um, so it's not the that's just one thing, man

And that's what this is suffering with

But let's get to um the best part for me

Chef versus consumer reviews

As a consumer, if I was to eat this um I think it was good, man. is

it's a pizza

It tastes like pizza

It's nostalgic

Um the pepperoni with the sausage, you know, the sausage that's pre-made how we always used to it

Um it's a winner

I could live without it, though

I don't think I would ever come back here again because I like my pizzas with crust

I'm

realizing right now

It's not bad tasting, though

It doesn't taste bad

It doesn't give me vibes to say, "Oh, this ain't good." It's just not a um an everyday thing

I don't need this much cheese in a meal

You know what I'm saying? like I ain't lactose intolerant or nothing, but I feel like I may use a

restaurant afterwards

Um, but I mean that's my consumer view as a chef

Why would be my question? Um, I would rather just get tomato soup and have some cheese on top with some bacon crumbles on top of it

Um, so that would as a chef, man, it's just there's I don't want to dig in too deep, but I I

wouldn't It's missing a lot of like things that make it taste like it's made from scratch

I don't know if the thought of this was to make the best ever crustless pizza

And I think that if you're making a product or you're doing anything, your goal of your product should be to be one of the best.

And when I try this, I don't know if that was the goal or if it was just to make a pizza crustless with protein that tastes pretty good

Um, so that's where I think it it it falls hard at is it doesn't seem like they wanted this to be one of the best ever

So like they just made it

You know what I'm saying?

Everywhere and they got a burger

That was good

I mean, they didn't they didn't wow me, but I ate it

Didn't complain

That would be my review of this

Um, but overall I would say availability also

I mean, banquet's everywhere

We grew with this

It's everywhere

You can find it everywhere.

That's an A

So, overall, I would give this product probably a C

Uh, but that's big, big, big because nutritional

I mean, you don't need that much sodium in life and you don't need that much saturated fats in one meal

Um, and but it doesn't taste bad

So, I mean, it's up to you.

Do what you do

Super Chef Reviews

All right.
