Ultra Thin Pepperoni

The Ultra Thin crust is a little better on fat and calories (minus the sausage), plus you get a bigger serving size as well. 

Let’s see how Home Run Inn Ultra Thin stacks up to a DiGiorno thin crust pepperoni pizza.

Serving size = 1/5th of 12” pizza. Figures are approximate.

Home Run Inn’s Ultra Thin crust does fare a little better over DiGiorno in the nutrition department on this pizza. Especially in the trans fat department where Digiornio has 1 gram of trans fat. Now let’s try the Home Run Inn Classic crust with sausage and pepperoni against Tombstone’s sausage and pepperoni pizza on the original style crust (both 12” pizzas).

Serving size = 1/6th of pizza (12” pizza). Figures are approximate.

Home Run Inn’s sausage and pepperoni frozen pizza is higher in calories and fat compared to Tombstone’s similar pizza.

But would that make you choose a Tombstone pizza over a Home Run Inn pizza?
