Source ingredient text. Check it against your current package; recognition and source data can contain errors.

Animal-derived ingredients identified

cheese

Cheese is a dairy product.

meat

Meat is animal-derived.

pepperoni

pepperoni is classified as animal-derived by the local ingredient taxonomy.

Ingredients with an unresolved source

unspecified oil

The oil source is not identified as plant-derived.

natural flavours

Natural flavours can come from plant or animal sources.

ambiguous meat-style ingredient

This term can describe either animal meat or a plant-based alternative unless its source is stated.

crimini mushrooms

We could not identify this ingredient reliably. Check the label spelling; this is a recognition gap, not evidence of animal origin.

crust

The source or production method of crust can vary, so it is not always vegan.

enzymes

Food enzymes can be microbial, plant-derived, or animal-derived unless their source is stated.

Additional evidence

vegan label

The source data identifies this product as vegan.

vegetarian label

The source data identifies this product as vegetarian, which does not by itself confirm vegan status.

Limits in this record

  • The vegan label conflicts with confirmed animal-derived ingredients. The ingredient list takes priority.

Nutrition + processing

Nutri-Score is the grade reported in the source, not a score calculated or certified by us. NOVA describes processing. The Veganory indicator is a separate estimate; it does not determine whether a product is vegan.

Source values per 100 g or 100 ml, as supplied by the record. Confirm the basis on the package; these are not per-serving values.

How our indicator is calculated

When available, Nutri-Score A–E maps to 92, 74, 55, 34 or 16 points. With NOVA present, we combine 80% of those points with 20% of the processing indicator (100, 82, 52 or 16 for groups 1–4). Without NOVA we use the nutrition points alone. Without a usable Nutri-Score, we do not rate the product. This is a simplified comparison aid, not a validated health assessment.

Questions about this product

Is this answer valid for every Daiya product?

No. This page covers Daiya Meatless Meat Lover's Gluten Free Pizza, barcode 0871459001999. Other flavours, package versions or recipes sold in different countries may differ. Match the barcode and ingredient list on your package.

What still needs to be confirmed?

The source of unspecified oil, natural flavours, ambiguous meat-style ingredient, crimini mushrooms, crust, enzymes needs clarification. Check the current package for a vegan certification or ask the manufacturer about these exact ingredients. A confidence label is not a certification.

Is the nutrition rating the same as the vegan result?

No. Vegan status concerns ingredient origin. Nutri-Score describes a nutrition profile, NOVA describes processing, and the Veganory score is our own combination of available indicators. A vegan result does not mean a food is nutritionally balanced.

What if my label is different?
