As a New Jersey native who went to college in New York, I’ve been lucky enough to have consistent access to great pizza—a fact that’s unintentionally led me to become somewhat of a pizza snob.

Of course, the only appropriate way to eat a bunch of pizzas is with your friends, so some of my fellow New Jerseyans and I got together to test the flavors, including Premium Pepperoni, Supreme Speciale, Italian Meat Trio and Four Cheese. Below, some honest thoughts—with pictures.
