This month, vegan cinnamon scrolls hit the menu of Papa John’s UK restaurants. But meanwhile, the pizza giant has appointed a new CEO: none other than the author of Arby’s “We have the meats” tagline. Don’t let the pizza giant off the hook for compassionate menu items in the US: Send a quick, polite email to new CEO Rob Lynch TODAY (using our sample message below)!
Across the Atlantic, Papa John’s is already recognizing the sizzling demand for vegan food. The chain’s UK branch recently launched not one, but three vegan pizza flavors, along with marmite scrolls--and sold out within 24 hours. It followed up with the addition of cheesy potato wedges, and now, this month, it’s even offering vegan cinnamon scrolls.
But Papa John’s US is falling behind by serving misery with every single slice of mozzarella. Each year, over a half million cows languish on dairy farms, forcibly impregnated and separated from their babies, to churn out milk for Papa John’s cheese supplier Leprino Foods.
And the chain’s new CEO has a long history of cozying up with the animal agriculture industry as Arby's president, including his famed “We have the meats” slogan and his insistence that Arby’s not cater to the sizzling demand for vegan meats.
It’s up to us to make sure that Papa John’s US doesn’t follow in Arby’s footsteps. Take action TODAY by letting new CEO Rob Lynch know that consumer demand for cow’s milk is curdling, and it’s time to take a slice out of cruelty with dairy-free cheese!

Dear Mr. Lynch,
Congratulations on your new role! I’m writing to urge you to cater to the sizzling demand for dairy-free dining by offering vegan cheese on Papa John’s US menu. Sales of dairy alternatives are soaring, even outpacing those of dairy itself, and the market is projected to reach $35 billion by 2024. Your UK restaurants even sold out of vegan cheese within 24 hours of its debut. It’s time for Papa John’s US to get a slice of the action: Dish out vegan cheese!
Sincerely,
YOUR NAME
