Is this content marketing for those ever so trendy at-home pizza ovens?
- HWR_14 4y agoAccording to the fine print, while the Atlantic has content marketing, it is marked by tags missing from this article. So almost certainly not.
- georgebcrawford 4y agoIs “ever so trendy” a pejorative? Because the Ooni he mentions is amazing. Three of my brothers (two of them chefs) have them and they make a huge difference. I’m sure there’s plenty sold to people who can’t make a decent pizza with or without them, but in the right hands they’re fantastic. While I can’t think of any right now, there are parallels in other markets - great tools that many have diminishing returns depending on the operator. Maybe espresso machines?
- dzhiurgis 4y agoMaking pizza at home is like changing tyres or oil yourself - messy, expensive, takes ages and totally not worth it.
- georgebcrawford 4y agoDisagree on both counts, but different strokes :-)
- yamtaddle 4y agoTrendy? Nah, meeting pent up market demand of all the people who wanted a high-temp oven but not enough to build a janky one outside or spend thousands of dollars on a commercial one. Granted, I haven't sprung for one yet, but it's probably just a matter of time. The price and/or inconvenience were the reasons I was holding out before, and they've solved those. I can't believe how cheap the options are now. I'd probably spend more building one of those crappy landscaping-block DIY ones, now, while before that was by far the more budget-friendly option.
