Domino's is embracing the spirit of 'Veganuary,' the month dedicated to celebrating and trying vegan products and diets, with its new 'PepperonNAY' pizza, available in UK Domino's locations. This is a vegan version of a pepperoni pizza made entirely out of plant-based ingredients.
PepperonNAY was brought to Domino's' shelves through a collaboration with 'The Vegetarian Butcher,' a Dutch alternative meat brand. The plant-based pepperoni created by The Vegetarian Butcher has the same smoky taste as the meat-based original. Domino's noted that vegan products have been increasing in popularity with a 73-percent increase to vegan products ordered, and this vegan pepperonNAY pizza is meant to address these consumer trends. To further the veganuary festivities, Domino's is offering multiple combo deals and individual pizza deals for its new pepperonNAY pizza, encouraging consumers to give it a try.
