It would literally be my go-to if it wasn’t so hard on my stomach. I can maybe get away with a single slice and a single piece of crazy bread, but if I eat more than that, my stomach will be upset all night and I’ll be belching to attempt to relieve the pressure all night.
But lots of fast food does that to me as an adult, which is why I learned how to do stuff like pizza at home.
It may be location specific. One thing I’ve noticed with pizza places is that different locations (even within a chain) may or may not cut corners on baking time in order to get pizzas out the door faster during peak hours.
Most people seem to be clueless about the texture of undercooked pizza. The telltale sign is gooey dough just underneath the sauce. A lack of browning on the cheese is another sign.
The thing is, since pizza toppings are all cured meats, fully cooked meats, fresh veggies, cheeses, and precooked tomato sauces the pizza itself does not need to be fully cooked to be safe to eat. However, an undercooked pizza can and will give you a lot of gas due to fermentation of the raw dough in your gut.
Next time you might try asking for your pizza well-done, or if it’s a hot n’ ready then try throwing it in an air fryer at 350F for about 4-5 minutes. I, personally, much prefer air-fried crispy pizza over the soft crust from most takeout places.

Years ago I figured out that preferred well done, thanks for explaining why!
