My internal organs microwaved when I watched the video clip in this link: The Great Frozen Pizza Recall of 2007.
Here I was, holding the box of the SAME brand and flavour as the product recalled from stores because it was alleged to have contained "a deadly strain of e.coli"! And in those specific cases, it is suspected that bacteria (which cannot survive high temperature) did not die because the said people microwaved the pizza against the instructions! Further more scarily, the freezer in the video clip (at 1:04) looked JUST like mine - stacked with pizza boxes!
And just as the 15 minutes on my microwave were up and the three beeps went off, the last few seconds in the video clip (playing on my laptop) blared: "Anything that you see recalled - throw it away! DON'T EAT RECALLED PRODUCTS!"
Back to beef noodles. Frozen pizzas suck. What idiot would buy them anyway?

Those 15 minutes and googling saved you from a potential disaster..Googlaya namaha!!
Thanks for stopping by.And I cannot resist saying --behing every 'just kidding' there is always a layer of truth.--Are you a closet wife kicker by any chance?Just kidding! ;-) LOL.
heheheh.....no wonder our elders swore by homecooked fresh food...they did not trust the wigglies and slimies....
Boy are we glad that you read instructions....sometimes in sheer hunger, one can overlook such facts ..
@ps: lol - in my case, i say that by default after some experiences where ridiculous statements made in humour have been taken seriously.. moreover my wife kicks back - so there :-)
@prats: wigglies and slimies...ew.. heyy.. i have to still survive on microwave food for a while :-O
so google came to the rescue as usual!!!
nice to see the juice boy back :)
I am imagining your reaction if you'ed have googled it after u hogged the pizza down! :)) :))
Google saves the day again... Amen
Deadly E. coli in strings? Either I've forgotten Microbiology, or E. coli mutated while I wasn't looking. :P

Keshi.
O my! Thank Goodness u decided to google. :O phew! saved ya day!:D

Wondering whether we as Indians have a natural immunity to e.coli...after all, you were at one time a loyal patron of LKC!!
lol..best pizza is one with a base and chunky chopped veggies grilled to perfection at home... frozen pizzas are the devil!
I thought selling the recalled/outdated products happen only in India. :-)
@sandhya ramachandran: freaky indeed. i would have had mom's food too, if my mom were here :-)
@keshi: sometimes you think it makes your life easier *sheepish grin*
@sweetstickychewy: :-)
@serendipity: know what, you're right! can't believe that at one time, i fearlessly ate at LKC! and now, what has become of me :-(
@preethzzz: i miss my wife.. sniff :'-( she made great pizzas at home
@jo: evidently not, jo :-D

I don't like eating pizza. See how google help you their to cook pizza, dont more take risk.
Close call. I hated those frozen pizzas anyways.. The micro managed to melt the plate instead of the pizza.
A click in google just in time.
@ponnarasi kothandaraman: thanks for dropping by :-)
@jeevan: you should try the good ones buddy - it's a matter of time before you get addicted :-)
@j: plate melting happened to me once too. but again, it was me not following instructions :-S
@joy: a stitch in time saves nine; a click in time saved mine :-)
He He....You is the answer for your ques...:)
Hi there..
I am not a gr8 fan of pizza, and this is the only brand of Pizza I like. Bcoz it is not too cheesy. I had it yesterday too :((. And u can imagine my shock when I saw this in your blog. I do bake in conventional oven and follow the directions, still it is so scary. And moreover I have recommended this most of my friends.
A big thnx for posting this.
But I dont understand how these recalled products are sold in major stores...
