“We’re so excited to introduce the new vegan items to our menu to kick off 2021,” Giles Codd, Marketing Director at Papa John’s said.

“With recipe innovation at the core of the brand, we’re proud to continue our commitment to vegan products with the launch of the Not-Chicken Vegan Bites and Vegan Stuffed Crust.

“We’ve also thoroughly enjoyed working with one of our Paralympic ambassadors, Alice Tai to create a limited-edition plant-based pizza – another menu addition that we expect to be a huge hit with pizza lovers across the nation.”

The three new options join Papa John’s other vegan offerings including its award-winning pizza on the menu.

Last October, the fast-food chain’s The Vegan Works pizza scooped the Best Vegan Pizza gong in advocacy organization PETA’s eighth annual Vegan Food Awards.

The pizza was launched last Veganuary and is topped with plant-based sausage, jackfruit pepperoni, portobello mushrooms, green peppers, onions, and black Herrera olives.
