companies that cheapen their product in pursuit of profit only to end
up losing significant portions of their customer base due to an
inferior product and thus losing profits in the long run.

At least Dominos has figured that out and changed the substance on their
pizzas. I have tried one and it wasn't bad. I normally go to a small
pizza maker not far away who makes most excellent pizza and, no matter
what other pizzas (chain or single owner) I have tried I always go back
to him.

Yep, I have one like that in Manassas. Great pizza, a bit on the oily side,
but flavor that can't be beat and a decent price.

Eat ! Pizza Night on Wednesdays for ~$6 :
Most of the Pizzas are 3-Toppers and there
are about 12 Varieties lasts about 2 Hours.

To coin an expression.....they make a sausage and pepperoni with extra
cheese that is to die for. Hmmmm, come to think of it, I believe most all
their pizzas come with extra cheese.

There are excellent pizza joints for all tastes around here. Cici's
seems to be designed for OK pizzas for grade school kids. I won't
eat them again.

We even got passes for several free ones due to an incident that happened
in there but we gave them away rather than use them.

A couple of local restaurants have super-expensive super-hot ovens
which make a different kind of good pizza. But others have excellent
pizzas with cheaper ovens. When I was young I liked pizzas with
everything on them, now I am more minimalist. Not like my
grandchildren though, who prefer either cheese or pepperoni.

My first experience with Pizza was at a Shakeys' in Mexico City in
around 1962. I worked in pizza joints in College back when there
were only a few styles of pizza joints.

The original Shakeys were quite good.

That may be. Trouble is, my tastes have changed over the decades and
certainly the pizza industry is. I wouldn't be surprised if going
back in a time machine quite a few of the restaurants I remember
fondly would be found lacking.
