The rise of plant-based eating has led to many pizzerias beginning to offer gluten-free and vegan-friendly pizzas. However, these options are much harder to find in frozen food options. What's even more rare is Daiya creating a gluten-free crust topped with a melty, shredded non-dairy cheese and mock meat pieces that substitute commonly used animal proteins. In collaboration with Beyond Meat, Daiya developed the Supreme pizza, which is a satisfying frozen pizza that appeals to "over 22 million vegetarians, a third of the population who is dairy sensitive, and an ever increasing number of people now following a plant-based diet."
In addition to its Supreme pizza, Daiya also carries a range of satisfying non-dairy pizzas like Cheese Lover's, Spinach & Mushroom, Margherita, Fire-Roasted Vegetable and Mushroom & Roasted Garlic.
