"We continue to focus on our commitment to providing customers with fresh, wholesome, and nutritious options," said Dan Harmon, senior vice president of operations at Papa Murphy's. "Customization is very important to our customers and we are excited to offer the mobile-friendly Nutritionix tool which allows them to take a closer look at the nutritional profile of the pizza creations they've developed themselves, for their own families. As consumers focus more on the nutritional value of their food, we are pleased to meet their demands by introducing the interactive Nutritionix portal that helps them to make more informed decisions to fit their lifestyles."
The easy-to-use, mobile-friendly tool is available through Papa Murphy's at www.papamurphys.com/nutrition and allows guests to quickly track exactly what is included in their pizza creation or menu item. Features of the resource include:
- Complete nutrition, allergen, and ingredient information for all of Papa Murphy's signature offerings;
- Ability to use the interactive nutrition calculator to view the complete nutrition facts for customized orders, such as substituting Angus steak for pepperoni on The Cowboy, giving a more precise look at the nutrition facts of individual orders;
- A 'View All Ingredients' link found at the bottom of the nutrition facts panel to see a list of ingredients included in all signature and customized menu items;
- Ability to share creations through Facebook and Twitter;
- An Allergen Tracker which allows guests to easily determine which menu items do not contain specific allergens including eggs, milk, peanuts, tree nuts, soy, fish, shellfish, wheat, gluten, or MSG.
"This platform gives Papa Murphy's guests a tool to instantly calculate the nutritional value of their customized creations allowing them to choose the best options for their unique needs," said Danielle Colley, MS, RD of Nutritionix. "We created this tool to give the public more insight into their food and find healthy options that fit their busy lifestyles. We are excited to be partnering with Papa Murphy's to give customers at more than 1,400 locations nationwide the ability to empower their nutrition decisions."
A unique portion of the tool is the Allergen Tracker. This feature allows Papa Murphy's fans to select allergens they would like to avoid to find menu items that fit their dietary needs. Once an allergen is selected, visitors can then view a custom menu that is free of the allergen(s) of concern.
