With its limited-edition Hemp Sticks, Papa Johns has become the first global QSR brand to spotlight hemp on its menu. This protein-rich superfood can be found as the coating on the fresh, never frozen sticks that are made with minimal ingredients. The six-ingredient dough is a texture-rich treat thanks to shelled hemp seed toppings and special garlic sauce or garlic butter sauce and mozzarella.
Since Gen Z and Millennials are driving the demand for better-for-you foods, Papa Johns has focused on building out its menu of plant-based, flexitarian and healthy options. The limited-edition Hemp Sticks, now available in the UK and Russia, bolster the brand's Better Ingredients. Better Pizza commitment.
The launch of this 2022 product from Papa Johns is accompanied by a retro-style campaign that tackles popular misconceptions, such as the fact that the Hemp Sticks are "all seed, no weed."
