\"Domino's<\/p>\n

When you combine bread, cheese, and meat, there\u2019s no possible way to go wrong, right? That\u2019s what I believed before writing this review. But unfortunately, the new Pepperoni Stuffed Cheesy Bread from Domino\u2019s was disappointing in more ways than one.<\/p>\n

I have to admit, I first opened my box to quite the pretty picture \u2014 a thick golden loaf featuring rivulets of scorched cheese dripping from every crevice, densely-sprinkled flecks of garlic and Parmesan, and a single ruby-hued piece of pepperoni smack dab in the middle, like a beautiful ribbon hinting at the even more beautiful present within.<\/p>\n

\"Domino's<\/p>\n

If you place your order through the Domino\u2019s website like I did, you\u2019ll notice this side dish and\/or entr\u00e9e is specifically described as \u201c8-Piece Pepperoni Stuffed Cheesy Bread.\u201d But I should note that mine was barely perforated, so ripping apart a single piece was not the cleanest endeavor. Upon tearing off a hunk (which, due to said difficulties, I think technically constituted two pieces), I was greeted by my first hint that this bread might not be all I\u2019d chalked it up to be.<\/p>\n

\"Innards<\/p>\n

Peering at the cross-section, the innards didn\u2019t look that different from a regular load of bread. There was the slightest clue of mozzarella cheese seeping out from the center and a thin slip of red that signaled the presence of pepperoni, but the fillings certainly weren\u2019t as jam-packed as the word \u201cstuffed\u201d would imply. <\/p>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

Unfolding my slice confirmed that, yes, there was a small amount of fluffy mozzarella and the telltale gleam of orange grease (Domino\u2019s website also mentions cheddar, but it looked and tasted like part of the cheese melted on top), but there were only two limp pieces of pepperoni sitting side-by-side. That ratio was pretty consistent throughout the rest of my meal, and it just doesn\u2019t feel right that it would only contain eight measly single-layered pieces throughout the dang thing.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, this tasted pretty much just how that inside looked: like bland bread that was crispy on top and soft on the inside, with only the occasional faint suggestion of spicy pepperoni or sweet cheese. When the cheese did shine through, it pleasantly reminded me of what\u2019s in the stuffed crust from Papa John\u2019s\u2026 and reignited my decades-long desire for Domino\u2019s to introduce their own stuffed crust pizza, but I guess that\u2019s a different story. I also got a strangely earthy aftertaste that I couldn\u2019t quite put my finger on, but it wasn\u2019t great.<\/p>\n

Honestly, I got some of the garlic Parmesan seasoning on my hand when I was opening this, and it\u2019s sad to say that licking that off was the most flavorful part of this meal by far.<\/p>\n

When my dad is disappointed by junk food that he\u2019d been looking forward to, he\u2019ll lament that \u201cIt wasn\u2019t worth the calories,\u201d and that\u2019s exactly how I felt here; maybe you won\u2019t hate this, but if you\u2019re planning on eating something bready, cheesy, and meaty anyway, you definitely can\u2014and should!\u2014do a lot better.<\/p>\n
