Friday night I decided to order in some pizza for dinner.  After scoping out the coupons online, I decided to order from Domino’s.  They had a coupon for two medium pizzas for $5.99 each, and I wanted to try their new pizza anyway.  So I placed my order using only vegetable toppings (such a good Catholic) and noticed that they had a sauce called Hearty Marinara Sauce in addition to their New Robust Tomato Sauce.  I decided to try each of the sauces on separate pizzas since my coupon was for two anyway.

When they arrived, I immediately noticed that the one that had the Hearty Marinara Sauce actually said Original Sauce on the box.  I was thinking that both sauces would be new, and was therefore disappointed.  But I decided to turn the situation into my own taste test.  I started on the pizza with the New Robust Tomato Sauce and immediately thought that it tasted just as I had remembered Domino’s to taste, rather bland.  After a slice from the new I moved to the Original Sauce and immediately was struck by how awful it was.  So they have managed to improve their pizza, though I still don’t think it’s as good as the other chains.  The one thing that I did like was the new garlic butter that is brushed on the crust edges.  It helps enhance the flavor of the rather boring crust, though it can be a little messy.
