I tried different pizzas from both budget grocery chains.Su-Jit Lin

I tried 4 varieties of frozen, thin-crust pizza from Aldi and Lidl in a head-to-head taste test.
I compared barbecue-chicken, white, pepperoni, and cheese pizzas from both budget stores.

I chose four varieties of thin-crust pizza and bought them at each store.

I tried pepperoni, barbecue-chicken, white, and cheese pizzas. Su-Jit Lin

The barbecue-chicken taste test was between Lidl's crispy thin crust and Mama Cozzi's ultra-thin crust.

Both stores stock a barbecue-chicken flavor. Su-Jit Lin

Aldi's barbecue-chicken pizza was packed with big flavors.

The pizza had a surprisingly premium quality. Su-Jit Lin

Lidl's version wasn't the prettiest, and the flavor was lacking.

I was really disappointed by this pizza. Su-Jit Lin

Aldi's barbecue-chicken pizza was a clear winner.

Aldi's pizza was far superior. Su-Jit Lin

The white-pizza category came down to Mama Cozzi's thin crust made with broccoli cheddar and Lidl's white-vegetable pie.

I got the closest white pizzas that I could find. Su-Jit Lin

I was excited to try Aldi's white pizza, but it let me down.

There wasn't any sauce on this pizza. Su-Jit Lin

Lidl's white-vegetable pizza was already one of my favorite products.

This is one of my favorite products from Lidl. Su-Jit Lin

Lidl was the clear winner of the white category.

There wasn't much competition in this category. Su-Jit Lin

Mama Cozzi's thin crust went up against Lidl's crispy thin crust in the pepperoni category.

Pepperoni pizza is a standard. Su-Jit Lin

Aldi's pepperoni pizza wasn't anything special.

I was surprised by how much pepperoni there was. Su-Jit Lin

Lidl's pizza made much more of an impression.

The pepperoni didn't have a ton of flavor. Su-Jit Lin

Lidl came out on top again with its pepperoni pie.

Neither pepperoni pizza was perfect. Su-Jit Lin

Everything came down to Mama Cozzi's and Lidl's classic cheese pizzas.

The pizzas came in packs of three. Su-Jit Lin

Aldi's cheese pizza needed a total makeover to be enjoyable.

The sauce was the worst part of the pizza. Su-Jit Lin

Lidl's cheese pizza promised a brick-oven vibe.

The pizza was only good as a base. Su-Jit Lin

Neither cheese pizza blew me away, but Lidl won by a narrow margin.

I wasn't really a fan of either cheese pizza. Su-Jit Lin
