Example of yummy homemade pizza courtesy of Mystical Roo
I have a number of weaknesses and one of those is a passion for pizza. And I appreciate a good quality pizza with a Mystical Roo homemade pizza being one of the best out there. But I've also been known to indulge in a Dominos pizza. Partly because on Tuesday they're currently selling for $4.90 and partly because I do actually enjoy the taste. They're obviously not as good as Mystical Roo's but I still can't help myself. The trouble is with a Dominos pizza is I know they're nowhere near as healthy as a homemade pizza. You can tell that simply from the amount of grease that is left at the bottom of the pizza box. You can also tell by way of what I like to think of as a pizza hangover. And what is this pizza hangover? Well, there's no nausea but there is definitely a ridiculous thirst and sometimes a headache. I believe this must come from the salt content in junk food. Upon finishing a pizza from Dominos I'm always ridiculously thirsty. But no matter how much I drink I will always wake up in the night feeling utterly parched. And it's that weird kind of unquenchable thirst, which no amount of water seems to fix. Yuck. I take a glass of water to bed with me when I've been on a pizza binge because I know I'll wake up with the thirst. I guess I should stop eating the Dominos pizza but it's hard sometimes. Especially if I'm hungry, have nothing in the house and if the hunger and lack of food fall on a Tuesday when the pizzas are ridiculously cheap. I'll perhaps have to see if I can persuade Mystical Roo to create me a stockpile of homemade pizza. Or, I could make my own pizza. But I just don't have the touch. I suspect that Mystical Roo might be Italian.
Dominos probably also add a bucket full of MSG. Nothing worse for headaches and thirst.... it also makes you want to return for more!
ReplyDeleteI have the same problem with Chinese food, too much salt.
ReplyDelete....and with Chinese food; FAR TOO MUCH MSG.
ReplyDeleteWhat is this mysterious MSG?
ReplyDeletemono sodium glutonate - or something along those lines.
