The Third Estate Sunday Review focuses on politics and culture. We're an online magazine. We don't play nice and we don't kiss butt. In the words of Tuesday Weld: "I do not ever want to be a huge star. Do you think I want a success? I refused "Bonnie and Clyde" because I was nursing at the time but also because deep down I knew that it was going to be a huge success. The same was true of "Bob and Carol and Fred and Sue" or whatever it was called. It reeked of success."

From the TESR Test Kitchen
Tony's Pizza has a new flavor: Macaroni & Cheese.
Tony's Pizza, if you're not in the no, is a smaller pizza. It's better than Totinos which has the soggy crust in the microwave and which burns quickly in regular oven. But it's not a high-end brand -- or even Tombstone. It generally retails for two bucks and the only time most of us grab it is when we need a frozen, plain cheese pizza to add anchovies to.
As for Macaroni & Cheese, we've been seeing that on buffets for the last year or so. We believe we first saw one at a CiCi's Pizza in New Jersey (East Rutherford). We've never been tempted because there were so many other choices.
But thrown one in the frozen food section and suddenly we're all on it.
That's a photo of the pizza cooked. We weren't expecting much from this and so we were happily surprised. It tastes like a pizza with mac & cheese on top. It's a good quality pizza -- especially for the price.
There's not a great deal of sauce taste too and the cheese dominates so keep that in mind if you're not a cheese lover. Otherwise, just pop it in the oven (it tastes better out of the oven than out of the microwave oven and the square shape will make it difficult to cook in some microwaves) and then enjoy.
