2. Worst Pizzas Grill Classic Pizza: 2,311 calories – 166 g fat (55 g saturated) – 4,921 mg sodium – 121 g carbohydrates. The problem with deep dish pizza is not just the empty extra calories and carbohydrates from the crust; it is that the thick doughy base provides the structural integrity to extra heaps of sauce, cheese and oily toppings. The result is an individual pizza with more calories than you should eat per day and more sodium than you would find in 28 small bags of potato chips. Oh, do not forget about nearly three days’ worth of saturated fat. Pizza with Garlic Bread Crust: 842 calories 45 g fat (15 g saturated, 3.6 g trans) 1,451 mg sodium. Regardless of the crust you choose, this one is dominated by nutritional duds. The greasy toppings and the bloated crust will saddle you with 55 percent of your day’s sodium, nearly twice the amount of trans fat you should take in per day and 75 percent of your day’s saturated fat. So you’d better hands off.
