Now, here’s where the slice count gets philosophical. A small Domino’s pizza has a higher crust-to-center ratio than a large. Why? Because the crust ring is the same thickness (about an inch) whether the pizza is 10 inches or 14 inches. So on a small, crust makes up a bigger percentage of your pizza. You’re essentially paying for 35% crust—which is great if you’re a crust-first kinda person, and tragic if you’re a “leave the crusts for the dogs” type.
My advice? Order the hand-tossed crust, which is soft and pillowy, not the thin crust. Thin crust on a small pizza gives you a cracker-like experience that leaves you feeling like you’ve been tricked. And whatever you do, don’t order the “gluten-free” crust unless you enjoy eating what feels like a sad cardboard coaster.
Final Slice of Wisdom
So next time you’re about to order a small Domino’s, remember this: you’re getting six slices of pure, unapologetic solo indulgence. It’s not a meal for two, it’s a statement. A statement that says, “Yes, I am about to eat six pieces of pizza by myself, and I am at peace with that decision.”
