Little Ceasars greatly depends on the store. You might have a store that is barely putting pizzas together, letting them sit in the hot box all, generally not giving a shit at all. Then you have the ones that keep their pizzas fresh, doesn't just slap shit together, takes a little bit of pride in what they do. I used to live in an area where 2 shops were within 5 min of each other, one was always packed on the other only got business on the during rush hour. Also a $5 ready-to-go pizza is a $5 premade pizza...can only expect so much. Their pan pizza is legit IMO.
