12 Inch Original Pepperoni Pizza — Papa John's

Is the 12 Inch Original Pepperoni Pizza a good deal?

At a typical $16.49, the 12 Inch Original Pepperoni Pizza at Papa John's gives you 1,840 calories and 68g of protein — 4.1g of protein and 112 calories for every dollar you spend. That earns it a value score of 68/100, which ranks it #47 of the 96 pizza items we've priced across every chain (the typical pizza item returns about 4.1g of protein per dollar).

Where it stands out: a high absolute protein load (68g); 7g of fiber. Worth noting, though — sodium runs high (4,580mg), and saturated fat is steep (40g). If you want more for your money in the same category, Cheese Pizza (Slice) at Costco Food Court scores higher (91/100 value, $1.99).
