Pizza Pizza in Canada has launched a vegan cheese, a new dairy-free menu option that allows their customers to customize their pizzas with a cheese-like product that respects the vegan diet.
They say: “Our Classic and Whole Grain Dough do not contain any animal by-products. Any Mono or Di Glycerides or Enzymes are not derived from animals. However, our Gluten Free Crust does contain Kosher Beef Gelatin. We are continuing to evaluate options as to how we can transition this to a vegan and vegetarian friendly option. All of the enzymes (Lipase, Rennet) that are in our cheese offerings are derived from non-animal, microbial sources. No, we do not use any sugar refined through the use of animal bone char.” They also indicate: “Our dough, tomato sauce and cheese do not contain any egg product.”
