Many cities and towns not only offer vegan pizza options (Dominoes offer two good ones, though they are very expensive as they won’t offer plant-based versions of their ‘mini-pizzas), and each one includes a plastic-sauce pot, many of which you find littered on streets.
Purezza is an award-winning vegan pizzeria that launched around 10 years ago, and has three outlets in London, Brighton and Manchester. Founded by an Italian (obviously), the chain uses (mostly local) organic ingredients, no palm oil, and outlets are furnished with reclaimed materials, run on green energy and even the loos have recycled bathroom tissue!
Don’t give leftover pizza to pets or garden birds/wildfowl, due to onion, garlic, salt and fat (could smear on feathers, affecting waterproofing and insulation). Read more on food safety for people and pets.
You can recycle pizza boxes, but not the oily parts (rip off and bin).
The range includes pizzas topped with their own cashew mozzarella (which is sold wholesale to other restaurants) includes:
- Quattro formaggi (4 vegan cheeses!)
- Fungi pizza (with truffle oil)
- Plant-based salami pizza
- Garlic dough balls
- Gluten-free vegan pizza
Reusable Boxes for Takeaway Pizza
