We tried the Costco pizza that people are crazy about - here's the verdict

There are three pizza types to choose from: cheese, pepperoni, or "combo," which is essentially a supreme pizza. Whether you buy it by the slice or by the pie, the process is incredibly quick. Obviously, the chain has slices ready and waiting under heat lamps, and the baking process is streamlined so that the wait is minimal for a freshly baked pizza.

Plus, Costco members can call ahead and place an order to pick up.

First of all, the slices are enormous. Gargantuan. They fill up an entire normal-sized paper plate — they practically have their own zip code. If anything, they're unwieldy because of the size.

The size also plays into the floppiness of the slice — there's no way something that wide and flat can be structurally sound, no matter how crispy the crust is. And we're not saying it's crispy; it's rather doughy, although it's important to note that it's not soggy. It's just a more flexible, chewy crust.

It's fairly close to Pizza Hut's cheese pizza in terms of taste, which is a welcome surprise considering Pizza Hut's pizza won our cheese taste test out of the three major delivery chains. It's salty, greasy, and a tad chewy — but those are three qualities that makes cheap pizza taste so good.

And for $1.99 per slice — essentially two regular slices at this size — it's an amazing deal for a hungry family of Costco shoppers. Then again, you don't even have to be a member to buy the food if you can get in. So get eating.
