Dr Oetker is european; and it isn’t Nestlè
so that’s two points it has over Wagner :)
Wagner also committed war crimes in Ukraine. Or so I’ve heard.
No, you’re thinking of the Wagner Group, a Russian paramilitary organisation.
This is Wagner, the antisemitic 19th century German composer.
Can he just go back to music? Ukraine and pizza is a bit too much for my liking.
I believe that’s a different Wagner Group. Well I hope…
Angry upvote
Dr Oerker was founded by a nazi. Probably still controlled and owned by nazis. Check Wikipedia for their family history.
Edit: not all German companies, this one specifically, check my answer below for details. Also some companies supported and profited from the nazi regime but aren’t affiliated anymore. They changed ownership, renounced their past and the ideology and eventually made reparations. I don’t believe this is the case with Dr Oetker but I would be happy to be proven wrong.
Everything german is Nazi from the early 1900 got it.
Sod off.
Definitely not, lot of good German companies. on my phone so didn’t make a detailed essay, which is why I encouraged you to read Wikipedia.
For those who can’t be bothered:
During the 1930s and 1940s, Rudolf-August Oetker was an active member of the Waffen-SS of the Third Reich. The company supported the war effort by providing pudding mixes and munitions to German troops. The business used slave labour in some of its facilities. A bronze bust of Richard Kaselowsky still sits within the company headquarters in Bielefeld. Kaselowsky was killed during an air raid on Bielefeld in 1944.[2] The Oetker Family is among those German families, who have profited most from their close relations to the Nazi regime.[3]
I have to correct the original founder might not be a nazi. His grand son defined was.
The company is still privately held by the same family, and controlled
Richard Oetker, August Oetker’s brother, took over as CEO in 2010.

Edit: before someone try to paint me as some anti German strawman. I like Germany, and went there multiple time, for works, vacation and the ccc congresses and camps And it actually pained me to learn the company history because I actually liked their pizza.
as an avid frozen pizza enjoyer, both of these suck, taste wise
which ones don’t suck, MR frozen pizza connoisseur?
…
ok I admit I had to look up how to spell connoisseur so these forthcoming pizzas better be the bees knees.
This one sucks the least.
Of course nothing beats the absolute cheapest pizza you can find at the discounter when you’re having a LAN party.
This being called Salami Pizza reminds me of a time I ordered pepperoni pizza in Venice. I did not get what I was thinking I would, but it was still awesome. (They put actual peppers instead of ‘pepperoni’)
Yeah. A friend told me of his folly of ordering “salami” pizza in the US and getting some disgusting sausages.
This one sucks the least.

hard agree
well, even the best frozen pizza is still just a frozen pizza, but i prefer Die Ofenfrische. cheap and delicious
If you can get these, these are the best by a good margin: https://gustavo-gusto.de/en/

Dr Oetker is miserable
We were feeling more united than ever is this community but you decided to start a fight with our Italian friends? Why???
Envy :((
Dr.Oetker is the shit anyway iykyk
At least pick the Casa di Mama line from Dr Oetker
)Looks like whats called “Die Ofenfrische” in Germany.
“Hey siri, give me a list of all the terrorist and militant groups that have killed more innocent people and destabilized more countries in a fragile position than Nestle willingly has purely in the pursuit of more profit?”
I mean you this won’t fix the fact that it’s a fucking Hawaiian pizza. Y’all are philistines.
How about fuck all that nasty ass processed crap? Or is it only wrong when the Americans do it?
No fuck it. I’ll never understand how people are so obsessed with something like nutella so much that they don’t even care what it is. I’m pretty sure most people you ask tell you it’s chocolate. It’s palm oil hazelnut shit.
Oetker is also shit but less evil, I guess?
They all taste like crap though.
I mean no one’s replacing Dr oetker frozen pizzas with home made, the whole point of them is they’re pretty cheap and you can throw them in the oven for a quick meal. Not saying you shouldn’t make home made pizzas, these frozen ones are not good and also not very healthy, but I don’t think this is one of those things you can directly replace with a home made version, the home made you’ll make for a proper dinner or something. Maybe replace the frozen pizzas with something else that’s equally quick/easy but more home made though.
I mean, i do. It’s quickly made if you buy the dough.
Then again, since i live alone, i started to assess meals by their nutritional value vs. calories, since you can only eat so much a day and i want to lose weight. It’s second nature now and that might not be typical.
I’m right there with you, least year I lost 35kg by counting calories, and now I’m maintaining and working out, so while I don’t count anymore I’m still following the principles I learned thought that and these premade pizzas are off the menu… I’m just being realistic about how these frozen pizzas are used by folks who don’t do that (they used to be my favourite quick lunch options in my pre-diet life). Your recipe included making the dough which is what really pushed it out of the realm of realistic.
The right answer.
Came here to suggest an alternative: Crosta & Mollica
As far as I can tell they’re even from Italy.
We kinda get the best of both worlds: we just get the bases and make what we want so the speed of a ready made pizza, but the flavours of home made.
But still, NO PINEAPPLE !!
But still, NO PINEAPPLE !!
You’re one of those sociopaths that puts kiwi on your pizza aren’t you?!
Fuck… that’s probably actually really good…sigh
@Sturgist @IsoKiero my Swedish friend introduced me to Flying Jacob and that stuff is so wrong and yet so right. What is it with Swedes and weird banana recipes
Also, a vote here for Goodfellas pizza (Birdseye). Very average but better than Dr Oetker by a country mile and the gluten free one is pretty decent
The fuck is a Flying Jacob?!
I honestly have no idea. From wikipedia:
Flying Jacob Swedish casserole composed of chicken, whipping cream, chili sauce, bananas, roasted peanuts, bacon and Italian salad seasoning, which is a peculiar seasoning blend available only in Sweden. The dish is baked in an oven and is usually served with rice and a salad.
That didn’t help much on understanding it. And those are just your regular banans, not the kind you can get from chinese restaurant or something like that.
Plantains? But smaller, bit more bitter, absolutely banging in a Jamaican curry? Or fried…fuck…now I’m hungry…
@Sturgist it is so, so wrong. I’ve only had it once and I remember it being confusingly good https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flying_Jacob I sort of liken it to weird American recipes like marshmallows and sweet potato (which I’ve tasted and did *not* like, so who knows)
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flying_JacobThat sounds hideous.
One thing I grew up eating, and I know a few other people who did as well, we all seem to be from North American families of Scottish descent, but have been in NA for the Great Depression…
Peanut butter and mayo sandwiches. I know it sounds disgusting, but it is legitimately good. Big glass of milk of the side.
Kiwis, no… Australians… maybe (jk)
No, I’m a firm believer in meat and spice on a pizza: 'nduja, jalepeños and chorizo are my usual
Fair enough pal, that sounds exactly like my standard zza…except I do actually put pineapple on mine. Instead of chunks I use pulped, strain as much juice out as I can manage, and lightly sprinkle some on. And some baby spinach under the cheese…
The Crosta & Mollica Stromboli has ruined all other pizza for me. It’s infinitely superior to everything except perhaps a genuine Italian fresh from the pizza oven.
I learned from my wife to make pizza myself, just get the powder and make the dough from it and so on… Much tastier
By the way: For making really good pizza oneself, this video (German, 27 minutes) looked to me like the guy gives really solid instructions. (I haven’t tried it though, and it’s a multi-day project.)
Vive l’Italie? Is this French?
