I think they are finally eatable. Not great but doable. Before, they were nothing but cardboard, tomato paste and petroleum based cheese.

People order from chains because it's cheaper. That, and there may be no good independent shops in their area. There has never been a good shop where I live until a few years ago when a couple Paisans moved here and started an amazing authentic NY pizza joint.
Well, eastern Mass. is very densely populated and there are independent pizza shops on just about every corner. factor in the number of Italians and Italian-Americans, and chains don't stand a chance. The only exception to this IMHO is Bertucci's, but their chefs train in Italy. Chain stores come to Boston to die. Krispy Kreame lasted just about a year before they left.

This.

About as "local" as we get is either Lupi's (which has become a chain in the south east) or an upscale italian restaurant downtown (if you're going to spend that much on a meal, don't get pizza ).

There was a local place called "Claydough's" that was the bee's knees, but it closed down
