Pizza is without a doubt one of the best foods ever created. We recently got our fill of pizza over the weekend with not only the Super Bowl but National Pizza Day, which is on February 9. There are so many great places in Southwest Michigan to get a pizza that does not come from a big box store but is made locally and owned locally.

But the old saying is true even with pizza, that not all pizzas are created equally. When looking for a place to get pizza, my rule of thumb is always to try to support local businesses. But every once in a while, you have to go the affordable route. But what pizza places should you be avoiding in Michigan according to 24/7 Wall Street? Here's what they had to say:

To answer that question, 24/7 Wall St. consulted pizza reviews on five different food blogs and websites. Because pizza preferences are so subjective, we only included pizza chains that were ranked near the bottom on multiple sites.Opinions among the reviewers varied, as they always do about pizza. There was almost no unity regarding which pizza chains are the best. A few of the chains that received high marks from individual reviewers include Mellow Mushroom, Jet’s, California Pizza Kitchen, and MOD.

The Top 5 Pizza Places You Should Avoid

According to Wall St 24/7 the WORST possible place you can get pizza from is Chuck E Cheese. There were rumors years ago that they re-used the leftover pizzas from one order for a new one, but that was never confirmed. Others on the list were Domino's, Little Caesars, Papa Murphy's & CiCi's.

Either way, many Chuck E Cheese places have been closing in Michigan. But regardless of what 24/7 says, here are the BEST places to get pizza in Michigan...
