Domino's Pizza New Recipe: Our Experts Weigh In



In case you’ve been under a rock somewhere and didn’t know…long before Domino’s Pizza was known for employees putting boogers into subs on live on camera, and finding ways to market crumbs of dough disguised as fun for the whole family in the form of “Cinnamon Stix”…they used to make pizza!  Well, we’re told the latest news is that they’ve been criticized in the past for the taste being more like cardboard, or even more accurately, on a good day that is, like a cat scratching post (Yeah, we licked it).  So, bending to public opinion and in an effort to trounce competitors that are now putting a pizza inside of a pizza (NY style goes into Chicago easier than Chicago goes into NY), they have now decided to revamp their recipe.  The new and improved crust will not only contain flour, but is now going to have a garlic herb seasoning we are told (courtesy of Dow chemical’s new spice division), and the sauce will be not only sweeter, but much bolder due to them hiring actual Italian Americans from the Jersey Shore to crush the tomatoes with their feet.  So is it better?  Is it any good?   

We ordered a pie and here’s what we think: 

Sauce:   Bolder’s not always better.  Especially when the herbs seem to be engaging in a fistfight while rolling around on the hood of an I-Roc Z.

Cheese:  Didn’t have that "like licking and gnawing the inside of a purple nitrite rubber glove” taste and texture that we’d grown to love.

Crust:  Not as many paper cuts on our tongues.  Huge plus.

Bottom Line:  It’s an improvement if you are looking for new and innovative ways into tricking your stomach into believing it’s being fed food.
