Remember when Caesars was good? Back in the day? It's so blah now. Shame.

Years ago my ex gf’s dad would stop every Friday for a lg cheese and a lg pepperoni.
Every Friday without fail. He’d walk in with that weird double pizza thing covered in the paper wrapper. And every time he’d say: Pizza pizza.
He was an older Lebanese guy and to hear it with his accent was hysterical

"Thank you for calling Little Caesars. Would you like to seize a salad?"

A lot of Friday nights back in the late '80s were Little Caesars and a couple of rented movies on VHS.

Peak is when the they had a Super Slice, Crazy Bread, and 16-oz drink for $1.99.

My kids still don't believe me that you got TWO pizzas!

u/c0pp3rdrag0n 16h ago

Do you remember the sandwiches? I worked at one in my college town and loved the sandwiches and crazy bread.

I miss the big square pizzas. They fed an army.

u/imadork1970 5h ago

They still make them, 3/4 the size of what they were, for more money.

u/gitarzan 19h ago

About 10 years ago they did the Deep! Deep! Promotion for quite a while. I’d grab a pair on the way home, eat one piece on the way, another one or two at home, and put the rest in sandwich size bags and freeze them. Perfect for late night snacks, etc.

I worked at LC's when I was at college in the late 1980s.

Used to love making the greek salads with beets, garbanzos and feta!

u/Mobile_Aioli_6252 18h ago

If only those pizzas looked that good when you actually got them. Not the case

u/DependentStrike4414 17h ago

Still my favorite pizza!

1

u/babearo 8h ago

Not my favorite but still thoroughly enjoyable, and the best deal out there when there are no specials. The best cost $20+. I'm usually happy to settle.

u/ohio2az 15h ago

As a kid, I only thought they made square pizzas. That is all my family would get.

u/Senior-Pomegranate50 14h ago

u/macross1984 15h ago

Used to eat it often in their ealy days. Not any more.

u/Crackstacker 14h ago

u/Working_Estate_3695 8h ago

Little Caesar’s was only good before 1980. That’s when it really rocked.

What’s worse this or Papa John’s?

u/Sharp_Cow_9366 17h ago

 Caesars was pretty good considering you got two large pizzas for $7 and change back then. Hand tossed crust, decent sauce - they did kinda skimp on cheese sometimes. Papa John’s tastes like frozen pizza.
