Easily my favorite pizza place in Colorado is Anthony’s Pizza & Pasta. Anthony’s is a Colorado franchise that serves surprisingly authentic New York style pizza. I’m a fan. I probably eat there at least once a week.
So, I went to their website and fired off a quick email…
Hi – I love your pizza. As a New Yorker now living in CO, I love being able to get great NY style pizza whenever I want. We eat at Anthony’s at least once a week. My only concern, does Anthony’s use organic ingredients? If not, why not? CO is the market for it, that’s for sure. I’m not the healthiest eater in the world, but I do want to know that the food I’m eating, from anywhere, is organic, all natural, and antibiotic/hormone free. What can Anthony’s tell me about the ingredients used in their pizza? Thanks very much.
Best,
Brian Sofer
I received a prompt and pleasant response…
Brian,
Thanks for your interest in Anthony’s Pizza. We do not use organic
ingredients in our pizza. We do however use the best stuff we can for every
item we sell. Our cheese is never frozen. We make our own dough. We use
olive oil instead of veggie oil.
We are working on changing our products where we can to be organic. Not sure
when that will happen. Organic cheese is just not cost effective. It is
about twice as much as regular mozzarella.
If you have any further questions, please give me a call.

Anthony’s Pizza and Pasta Intl.
Please write Anthony’s Pizza & Pasta and encourage them to use Organic and All Natural ingredients.
I’ll keep you posted on any further correspondence.
