I went to Coop last night at about 9:30 and I was the only one in the shop Since it was late I picked us up a pizza for dinner. Looked really good on the shelf.
Not so great in out of the box Half a thin bit of ham and an 8th of a mushroom per slice once you carefully re-arrange it out of the window area. Coop were really spoiling us with this one. In fairness it was very tasty.
If you can keep your head, while those around you are losing theirs, you may not have grasped the seriousness of the situation.
Probably from the same factory that does M&S and Waitrose plus others all of which have very variable coverage on their pizzas. Perhaps they should take a look at Domino's which I saw on TV recently with chefs trying to make an exact copy. The original has a very specific amount of sauce, cheese and salami slices on every one.
My brother had a summer job in a pizza factory when he was a student. He said the main difference between cheaper ones and more expensive ones was how careful they had to be in placing the toppings in the right positions.........

The cost of ingredients for even the poshest commercial pizza can't be more than 50p. Even the obscenely expensive pizzas have to be augmented with a sprinkle of diamonds or 24carat gold leaf to bump up the price.
I've been caught out by Co-op pizzas in the past too. The best I've come across locally is Papa John. They do a large pizza for £12.99, on offer all the time, which is cheaper then their medium. My wife and I struggle to finish it, but give it our best shot.
But it's not the Italians selling this sub standard cr*p is it? I sometimes buy a frozen pizza for OH if I'm going to be away but he always adds extra toppings such as chilli and chorizo and he's not fussy about the crust whereas I concluded a long time ago that the only place to buy and eat pizza is in Italy and not in a tourist trap restaurant.

I ordered some books, paid for next day delivery, they didn't arrive, went to a Supermarket bought 3 books, books arrived after 6 days, got e-mail, stayed in, no books, they were actually delivered to my neighbour, who was rather cross, demanded to know if I had been out (this is from a person who had a party during the first lockdown) and sneered when I said they were books. (he obviously doesn't read!!) Oh, and yesterday, I chipped my front middle tooth, on a tiny bit of cherry stone. It's not causing any problem, so will have to live with it.
