The patties are already wildly popular: vegan musician Lizzo said “I’m not exaggerating when I say today is possibly the best day of my life,” after eating the product on Instagram.
California Pizza Kitchen’s Adds Vegan Chicken
The pizza chain CPK has added vegan chicken to its menu at all of its 155 corporate-owned locations across the U.S. and Canada. The seitan-based meat launched with a new pizza called “Don’t Call Me Chicken”, which can be made fully vegan by removing the dairy-based cheese and barbecue sauce.

Hooray Foods’ vegan bacon has just launched at 300 Whole Foods locations. “People who love bacon, love Hooray”, says the company’s founder, who developed the bacon to help save the planet and animals from intensive pig farms.
