It's good news for vegans and veggies as Pizza Hut have now added more plant-based options to their menu.
In the much welcomed move, Beyond Meat announced on Monday (July 26) that the vegan and vegetarian option would be added to over 400 Delivery Hut locations across the UK.
In a post, the meat-free company announced: "Good news, delivered: Pizza Hut Delivery UK is bringing 3 sizzling, plant-based Beyond Meat pizzas and a mouth-watering side to menus all across the kingdom permanently!
"After a successful trial of Beyond Meat menu items last year, we’re responding to growing demand for permanent plant-based menu items by offering three custom plant-based toppings — Beyond Italian Style Sausage™, Beyond Pork™ Crumble and Beyond Beef® Crumble — nationwide, all-year round. That means juicy, savoury satisfaction is now available in the UK all day, every day!
"These Beyond Meat menu items offer the same, juicy meaty taste of the classic flavours pizza fans know and crave, but with the nutritional and environmental wins that come with plant-based protein."
The new options include three meatless pizzas and one side made with dairy-free cheese and vegan meats.
Amelia Riba from Pizza Hut said: “We are so excited to be bringing Beyond Meat Pizzas to our menu permanently.
"It’s important for us to ensure we deliver the absolute best for our customers, and we know that many of our them are increasingly looking for more flexitarian and meat-free choices that don’t compromise on taste.
“We hope to offer people more choice by partnering with Beyond Meat to create the new Beyond Meat toppings, which have been designed to deliver the same amazing taste of our classic menu that our customers know and love.”
