Beyond Meat pizza will help you puke your guts out and cleanse your system from Pizza Hut residue & is just really a bad idea.
Pizza Hut (
YUM) hopes the well-known consumer buzz around Beyond Meat’s (
BYND) plant-based foods gets it back to being top of mind with hungry diners while also plumping up its sales.
“Obviously we expect to get more foot traffic, more orders online from this pizza,” Pizza Hut interim president Kevin Hochman
told Yahoo Finance Live. “The second big thing is just check [average customer bill]. This is innovation that customers are willing to pay a little bit more for and that’s what we are seeing with check with these pizzas. And third, just about modernizing the Pizza Hut brand. We are on a turnaround right now to become America’s favorite pizza again. That includes modernizing our digital estate, making it frictionless to order pizza, and then bringing back iconic pizzas that you can only get from Pizza Hut.”
On Tuesday, Pizza Hut debuted the Beyond Pizza for a limited-time nationwide and in select spots in London. It marked the first time a plant-based meat topped pizza was available nationwide. The two new pizzas are being dubbed the Beyond Italian Sausage (self explanatory) and the Great Beyond (veggie pizzas also topped with Beyond sausage crumbles).
“The first day was great. We had an unbelievable response all across the country,” Hochman added.
