Pizza My Heart first introduced [plant-based, vegan pizza options](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/toppers-pizza-vegan-pizzas) for its customers a whole two years ago. Now the brand is encouraging even more consumers to try the plant-based offerings by adding a [vegan-friendly pepperoni topper](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cup-and-char-pepperoni). The new Field Roast Plant-Based Pepperoni is the first pepperoni alternative made from pea protein. This means it delivers the same amount of protein as regular pepperoni, but with half of the sodium, fat, and saturated fat. As Chuck Hammers, Ownder/President of Pizza My Heart puts it, “The plant-based pepperoni has an authentic, bold taste that adds depth to any of our pizza offerings.” Image Credit: Pizza My Heart ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 0.7/10 - Popularity: 7% | Activity: 4% | Freshness: 11% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Plant-based Meat Alternatives:** The rise of plant-based meat alternatives is disrupting the food industry, providing ample opportunities for brands to cater to vegan and vegetarian consumers with innovative products like Field Roast Plant-Based Pepperoni. - **Health-conscious Eating:** With a focus on reducing sodium, fat, and saturated fat in popular foods, there's potential for industry leaders to introduce healthier versions of classic recipes without compromising taste and quality, as Pizza My Heart has done with their vegan pepperoni pizza. - **Vegan-friendly Fast Food:** As more consumers are embracing a plant-based diet and seeking vegan options, there's a growing need for fast-food chains and restaurants to offer innovative and delicious alternatives like Pizza My Heart's vegan-friendly pizza menu. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Food and Beverage:** The food and beverage industry is constantly evolving to meet the changing tastes and needs of consumers, with disruptive products like Field Roast Plant-Based Pepperoni challenging traditional meat products and offering new possibilities for plant-based options. - **Restaurant:** Pizza My Heart is one example of a restaurant chain that is meeting the growing demand for vegan and vegetarian options, providing an opportunity for other players in the restaurant industry to follow suit and innovate in plant-based cuisine. - **Fast Food:** The fast-food industry has traditionally been associated with meat-heavy options, but as the trend towards plant-based diets continues to grow, there's a prime opportunity for fast-food brands to offer healthier, sustainable, and eco-friendly options like vegan pepperoni pizza. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Meat-Like Plant-Based Pizza Toppings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/donatos-field-roast-plantbased-pepperoni.md) - [Plant-Based Pizza Ingredients](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/plantbased-pizza-ingredients.md) - [Plant-Based Pepperoni](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/plantcraft.md) - [Spicy Meat-Free Pizza Toppings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spicy-pepperoni-style-slices.md) - [Plant-Based Pepperoni Slices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/plantaway.md) - [Smoky Vegan Pepperoni Slices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/new-vegan-pepperoni.md) - [Jackfruit-Based Pepperoni Slices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jackfruit-pepperoni.md) - [Vegan QSR Pizza Options](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pepperonnay.md) - [Satisfying Meat-Free Pizza Menus](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/toppers-pizza-vegan-pizzas.md)
