    Pizaa2go 3/4 pizza box
    ORDER ¾ OF A PIZZA: Order the ¾ Pizza Box from Pizza2Go to learn more about how to tackle food waste during Ramadan. In this month around 25 per cent of all food is wasted, a problem that goes against the spirit of Ramadan. Enter the ¾ Pizza Box, launched in a collaborative effort between Pizza2Go, a local pizza restaurant in Dubai, and advertising agency Mullen Lowe MENA, which removes a quarter of the pizza and its box to effectively eliminate the 25 per cent that would otherwise land in the bin. Moreover, customers are paying a special price of Dh44 for their orders, with 25 per cent of it being donated to Red Crescent to help those in need. Making for the UAE’s only pizza during Ramadan that doesn’t just taste good, it does good too. The pizza is available to order during the month of Ramadan in a variety of choices for toppings, from the classic Margherita and Pepperoni to vegetarian and vegan options, at the restaurant’s website and on all popular delivery apps as well.
