My boys (not average, I've been informed, but I think typical is accurate) recently sampled two gluten free frozen pizzas. They were nearly identical in size -- about 10 inches across -- despite Udi's larger box. Three Bakers claimed that their pizza was 3 servings at 250 calories each, Udi's said their pizza was 2 servings at 320 each. Either way, this is no diet food. I read ingredients more closely at the end and discovered that Three Bakers contains gelatin, making it not a vegetarian food, and frankly, if I had realized that at the outset, it wouldn't have been part of the taste test. But I didn't, and I did, and so there you have it. While I don't want to spoil the ending on the taste test, I will say that both pizzas were way better than Amy's gf vegan pizza, whose crust was a little too thin and easy to overcook, and with the vegan cheese just not very tasty. It's not really comparing apples to apples in that case, but I think my experience with Amy's helped me decide that I'd need to relax how strict I am with cheese. Any pretty much the only dairy I eat these days is cheese on pizza, and now and then some Greek yogurt on my brother's recommendation as a possible solution to staving off my propencity for snacking in the evening.

I decided to try a Udi's pizza after seeing your video so I grabbed a cheese pizza. When I opened the box a portion of the pizza was not covered by shrink wrap, dried out, and freezer burned. Pretty unappetizing. My first and last Udi's. I am going back to Three Bakers.

Thanks for taking the time to post a comment. I hope you give Udi's your feedback too! I think Three Bakers is tasty, but it's not vegetarian, so it's not right for me. (My video reviews are intended to be a public service, not a paid endorsement. :-) My kids picked Udi's fair and square. ) Comments are closed.
