So you don't trust electrons rushing around (hardly moving actually) a heating element but you are happy using electromagnetic waves flying through the air at 2.45GHz?

 

How can you not like lasagne? It's scrumptious! Yummytastic. Do you like bolognese? Although you're not really a meat eater are you?

Fake heating?

 

Do you use a kettle? a toaster? do you have a gas or electric hob?

Yes; I've told you; no; not really.

Damnit, I want a hobnob and I left them at work. :S


No, well, yes, but I don't actually use it.

Do you not like the taste of meat or the texture?

I had a look at newsletter Maplin had emailed me and one of the first things on it was this pizza cooker.

Microwave everything then?

Hmmm, a mixture but probably mainly the texture.

I'll eat chicken most/all times.
And will have turkey, bacon and burgers very occasionally.
But other than that... *shrug*



It's only 12 inches... if I was going to get a dedicated pizza oven I'd want something at least 15 inches, although I guess the compactness is part of the appeal.

Seems a tempting low price though.

Well, I wouldn't say 'everything'... microwave for noodles and cornflakes, oven for pizza.

Only other cooked thing I eat is the eggs in my sandwiches, but the cafe cooks those rather than me.

15"? You're either really greedy or you want to cook pizzas big enough for a whole village to eat.

Nah, I'm just shit with visual measurements.

Looks like the pizza I generally eat is only 9-10" - I thought it was 12".

We gave up, but not until we found the best pub in the world and sat in it getting pissed for 2 days.

 

Woo!

I read that too, but I just thought "nah, that can't be right, I must be tired"

With milk, yes. They burn if you forget the milk.

A rather late reply to this. Does that warm up in the oven before placing the pizza on it? Does it cook them nicerer?

 

Someone on Dragon's Den a little while ago invented a magic pizza cookerer. Well, a metallic dome that you heat in the oven and place the pizza on to cook. Supposed to stop frozen pizzas being soggy in the middle.

I'm afraid it's a late reply back, sorry!

 

The pizza stone needs to warm up in the oven for a good chunk of time before the pizza goes in onto it. Totally worth using 3 times the amount of electricity though for the end result.
