Bar none the best frozen pizza. However, I will say this, they cook much better in an actual bar pizza oven than in a standard kitchen oven. For whatever reason, the crust doesn't quite get as crispy in a standard oven. And yes, I've "experimented" numerous times... tough job.

I think Heggies are one of the best frozen pies and wouldn't think twice about purchasing it over Home Run Inn, or whatever they are called. Yes, they're somewhat salty but great, none-the-less. Awhile back, I was communicating with the Lunds/Byerly's people who didn't seem to want to add them as a distributor. After emailing the company, they sent back this list of stores near downtown Mpls:
Bergans SuperValu (Cedar Ave S), Oxendale Market, Everett's Foods, Winner Gas, Noble Pkwy, Now and Later and Kowalski's. I did not find any at the Kowalski's in Uptown however!Another really good frozen pizza is in Lilydale at Buon Guorno Grocery Store. Super good and I believe less expensive than Heggies.

They sell them in S Minneapolis at Oxendale's market on 34th Ave and 51st St. They have both larger and smaller pizzas and a good variety of each. Also if you happen to be in NW Wisconsin, the gas station in Webb Lake also sells them. They tasted the best at the cabin. mmm mmm...

re: karykat
Karykat - Heggies pizzas come in 10 in or 12in rounds. They're made in Milaca, MN - and obviously come frozen. It's hard to describe the pizzas because it sounds like they're the most amazing things ever. They're just a good quality, frozen pizza. I've had their sausage and pepperoni....their deluxe and the one that has jalapenos on them.
I'd describe them as much - thinner crust-not super thin, but thinner. Their sauce is not overly spicy but has a decent enough kick that you're not thinking just a bland tomato sauce. They give a good coating over the entire pizza of real mozzarella cheese - not overly so, say like you'd get at Papa Murphy's pizza and their toppings are average...when I say average, I mean, not 50 slices of pepperoni or so many sausage pieces you will get sausage in every bite--but if you cut them in triangles, you'll get a few of each on each slice. Additionally, on the deluxe, they don't dice their green peppers, they're cut in rings.
In truth, my chowhubby really likes these things-and I think they're fine. For $6.59 (which is what I paid at Moto Mart) and far cheaper than Von Hanson's (7.99 for a pepperoni and sausage), they're good pizzas. You won't be raving to friends and family about them, but if you want something different than what the super markets offer-you'll like them.

re: mncharm
Picked one up at a convienence store in St Paul because it looked really good. It was what I would call expensive for a frozen pizza at over nine dollars. I know it would be cheaper at a larger store. My problem was it was so salty that after one piece I had to drink alot of water and could not eat another bite. I hope this was a fluke but don't think I would risk it again.

I'm guessing your favorite local bar may be willing to sell you some frozen ones at a slight mark up.

They have a website at
http://www.heggiespizza.com/index.htm
It looks as if they sell only to restaurants, but it couldn't hurt to contact them to see what you can find out. Their phone number and e-mail address are on the page.
Let us know if you have any luck.
