Pizza Hut Sold Over 9K Vegan Pizzas in Two Weeks

In an effort to appeal to the record-breaking number of people participating in Veganuary, Pizza Hut in the U.K. has debuted a special vegan pizza. Made with barbecue jackfruit, dairy-free cheese, sweet corn, red onions, and peppers, the Jack ’N’ Ch**se Pizza is topped with a savory barbecue drizzle.

When the pizza launched, Pizza Hut promised to make it a permanent menu item if sales hit 10,000 pizzas by the end of January.

Just two weeks in, Pizza Hut U.K. shared an image on Facebook, exclaiming:

“WOAH! So close to the 10,000 target. Just need 400 more orders and our Vegan Jack ’N’ Ch**se will be added as a permanent menu item.”

We think it’s safe to say that this will become a year-round addition!

But this isn’t the chain’s first vegan menu item. In 2017, Pizza Hut began offering vegan cheese from Violife throughout the U.K. The Vegan Jack ’N’ Ch**se joins Pizza Hut’s two other vegan pies—the Vegan Veggie Pizza and Vegan Margherita Pizza.

While Pizza Hut in the U.S. doesn’t yet offer dairy-free cheese, the chain should consider adding vegan pizzas to its menus around the globe. Click here to leave a polite message on Pizza Hut’s Facebook page asking them to roll out this exciting new option at a location near you!
