Alright I'm 5'10 140lbs and around 20% bf so I've decided to bulk up to gain some muscle however to my understanding you need to be in a calorie surplus of around 200-500 calories which means that I need to be eating 3000-3300 calories which is a lot for me so my question is just as long as I meet my protein goal of 1g/lb would it be okay if I ate foods like pizzas and stuff to meet my calorie goal?
Thanks in advance also open to any suggestions

Make sure your eating in a surplus yes with high protein and carbs but. If you want to bulk clean stay away from junk foods and such but of course thats up to you. To top up extra calories eat calorie dense foods like peanut butter. When I started bulking I was 127 pounds and it is really hard to start with but now I'm 160. Just keep eating!
A meal I eat to add extra calories is: Peanut butter, Oats, Milk, Whey. Blend it up and its around 900 calories a meal and you can drink it super quick
