Pizza Hut Rolls Out Vegan Pies After Enough Brits Demand It

By  Jen Sabella

It's getting easier to hang out with your vegan friends. Folks you used to write off because you thought, "ugh they can't eat anything," now have greater options—even at fast food spots like Taco Bell.

The latest unlikely spot to cater to vegans is Pizza Hut. While the pizza chain of our youth hasn't rolled out this option stateside yet, vegans in England are going bonkers over the faux-cheese options—at the very least, the availability of a once-exotic product like vegan cheese in a chain restaurant.

According to Metro UK, the chain tested the vegan cheese pies at select UK restaurants over a two-month period and was waiting to see how customers reacted. It was received well by customers, so they decided to roll it out at all 262 British locations.

The vegan pizzas will cost an extra £1, Grub Street reports, and are made with Violife, a faux cheese product made in Greece but sold in stores across the U.S. No word yet on when—or if—Pizza Hut will introduce this stateside.
