I'll save you the trouble in two words: It sucks.

It used to be exceptional up until about 3-4 years ago, it would yield these great crispy chewy thin crusts. Did you ever get a chance to eat at the original Jacopo's in BH before they closed and sold the name? It was like their old crust. Very NY-ish.

So good that half the time I wouldn't even bother to make dough, I'd just buy it from them. But then they reformulated it, took out at least one of the key ingredients that gave it that fantastic texture and flavor and now, seriously, it's just crappy pulp with no flavor.
