I wonder how this plays out.

As noted sometimes the staff can't eat it, heck sometimes you might not want to eat it. That has to happen pretty often.

I worked at a company with a particularly sensitive HR team who would host pizza parties now and then, but they'd only order "weird" pizzas and I guess they liked it, but they were quite miffed when people stopped coming / didn't want to eat some pizza with some kind of fake cheese and unrecognizable veggies.

They were really miffed when my boss ordered our team pizza on their pizza day too, suddenly very concerned about waste...

What I want to know is what ghastly pizza establishment serves fake cheese and what are mystery veggies?

Most of them, I imagine, in order to accommodate vegan customers. Some advertise it louder than others.

There's quite a variety out there. I've seen broccoli, sundried tomato, artichoke, spinach....

Those are very normal weggebobbles for anyone outside the US. Big no-no to vegan cheese though.

Eh, I find vegan cheese very variable. I never seek it out but experience it relatively often. Sometimes it's tasty and chewy. Sometimes it's a bland monstrosity. I don't know why.

Vegan feta has the best success rate for me. Unfortunately, feta has limited applications.

(I'm not vegan but I like to try vegan products anyway.)

Politely beg to differ.

It's not particularly sliceable, meltable, or all that edible on its own. That rules out many cheese applications for me.

Then again, I'm French, so our takes on cheese may be very different! :)
