The Take
Frozen pizza is not healthy. It earns a 87 Slop Score as the ultimate ultra-processed trap.
Marketers push it as a family staple while loading crust with seed oils, sauce with HFCS and fake flavors, and cheese with processed dairy substitutes. Real pizza needs flour, tomatoes, mozzarella, and heat. This version needs a lab.
The Verdict
Skip the box. The 87 Slop Score reflects a product designed for shelf life and profit, not nutrition or flavor.
Buy a cast iron skillet and real cheese instead. One purchase, decades of actual pies.
