SFist Photo: New Dessert Pizza - Do Not Want!
Now we haven't actually tasted this new product. Maybe it's great, although early reviews are somewhat mixed. What we really don't want are all these local ads filling up our mailbox. Like, how many pounds does an average San Franciscan recycle each year? Supermarkets, drug stores, fast food - how do we stop this constant flow of dead tree advertising? See you after the jump.
Do we have to wait for the Do-Not-Mail Movement to gain traction?
How about the National Do Not Mail List?
This seems pretty comprehensive, anyway.
Would that stop these local ads? We found a local phone number on one of these circulars. They promise to remove you from the mailing list in, you guessed it, four to six weeks. Just left a voicemail message to end the mailings from one particular local media giant. Wish us luck!
Now, has anybody tried a Dessert Pizza? C'mon, let us know. We promise we won't tell.

One way to piss-off those advertisers is when they send one of those prepaid business reply envelopes, just shred-up whatever they sent to you (minus your name and address), stuff it, and mail it back.
The company pays for the postage and does not get the business! Oh happy days.
If you manage to get of the Chronicle's mailing list for their stupid flyers, please let us know how you did it!
i dreamed about this pizza. sad.
I literally just yelled: "GROSS!" at the anti-mail that I pulled from our mailbox -- I made eye contact with this heinous concoction as I threw it into the recycling bin. Then, I have to see it HERE!?! GROSS GROSS!!
It may taste good (could it, really??) but it would most certainly kill me.
That's effing nasty.
What drives me nuts is that everyone throws away these ads in the garbage can next to the mail room. My complex needs to have a recycling bin so that they AT LEAST can get recycled.
I want an SFist reader's opinion on this risky desert pizza.
Someone enlighten me!
OK then, Jess. I'll order it, give a full report. Mmm.
Ew, Brock's gonna get the Oreo mustache!
Brock's going to get the Oreo Sanchez fo sho.
Ok, I'll be the first to admit that when I first saw the television commercial a few weeks ago for this pizza my roommate and I ordered it immediately. What can I say? Our love for Oreos transcends our distaste for marketing ploys (free with a large pizza!).
The verdict? The cookies were stale, the marshmallow cream was bland and sticky, and the crust...well, it couldn't taste worst even if the crust really were made of thin cardboard rather than just tasting like it.
That's no way to desecrate an Oreo. Or, should I say, a box of them.
I can concur, I had come down with a case of late-evening munchies and ordered one - it was just about the foulest tasting thing ever. Same experience as Kristofer - super stale cookies, sticky, tasteless cream frosting and God-awful crust.
About the ONLY thing it was good for was making Oreo cookie moustaches.
oh man, that oreo pizza's beyond disgusting. like americans really need another reason to be obese and out of shape. ugh.
