Pepperoni? More like Pepperphony!

Hey, guys. Welcome back!

As you know, I found a vegan pizza a while back and fell in love. It was the Tattooed Chef brand, and I was super jazzed because it was like a Totino's pizza but healthier.

So when I saw that Tattooed Chef also made a plant based pepperoni version, I had to try it. I've never had plant based pepperoni before, so I was really jazzed to give it a shot.



When I took the pizza out of the box, I was a bit shocked at how thick the "pepperoni" slices were, but didn't really know what to expect since I've never even seen it before.



The pizza smelled really good, and it looks decent, too. The pepperoni slices still looked a bit weird, but that's to be expected since it's not real meat.

I took my first bite and OMG! Probably one of the most disgusting things I've ever put in my mouth.

The pepperonis were mushy.... the way I described it was if someone over cooked black beans, put them in a food processor and then added gelatin. It literally was so gross.

Which is why, the pepperonis ended up like this:


On their own plate thinking about what they did.

And then ended up in the garbage....

I still ate the pizza without the pepperoni, but it wasn't nearly as good as the cheese pizza from the same brand. The pepperoni had one good aspect though, which was the spices. They added the seemingly correct spices to make the flavor similar ish to pepperoni.

But the pizza was already ruined. Because of what I assume is water content in the pepperonis, the pizza was soggy and bland because the pepperonis were supposed to do the heavy lifting. The cheese wasn't the same because it was just one kind of cheese instead of several. Just overall, sooo disappointing.

I have since had another one of the cheese pizzas to see if it was a fluke, and it wasn't. The cheese pizza is still bomb, so I'm even more disappointed at how bad this pepperoni pizza was.

Overall, I give it a 1/10. The only reason I even gave it one was because the pizza itself didn't do anything wrong. The pepperoni just ruined everything.



So there's that... suuuuper disappointing....



I'll see you all on the next one! Bye!
