Veggywood

So, I’m a bit behind the 8 ball on this, but tonight I made a special trip over to Cruzer Pizza in Los Feliz (a matter of blocks from my apartment) to try out the much-heralded VEGAN PIZZA. Repeat VEGAN PIZZA. And no, not marinara-sauce-and-grilled-veggies “vegan” pizza– VEGAN PIZZA WITH CHEESE. Specifically daiya cheese.

Although it set me back $15 for a simple cheese and mushroom, I didn’t care at all. The five minute ride home was torturous with that amazing smelling box on the seat next to me…. I scarfed down almost three pieces before I even took my shoes off.

While at first glance this isn’t the gooey cheese of my youth, once you got it in your mouth it was hard to tell. It tasted damn good to me, even though there was a tad of a nutritional yeast aftertaste. Although, the price for a single pizza definitely will have to be a treat, not a weekly occurance. Plus, I don’t think my easy weekday pizza is that far off…

But, come on, it’s sure fun ordering a pizza like a “normal” person, and I can’t wait to try the Calzon, which is a more affordable $6. Plus, there is free delivery — which like free shipping, is one of my great joys in life.
