Like anything food-related, you can buy pizza bases pre-made at the supermarket. That’s okay – you’ll feel well fed after eating them – but the reality is that you’ve probably eaten more than you bargained for. The food will have additives in it. The flour that made it will be cheap and highly processed, minimising its nutritional value. And the bases will come wrapped in plastic and cardboard, adding to their carbon footprint. The alternative isn’t perfect, but it minimises some of the negative impacts. You can source better flour – organic, for a start. And making it yourself means you haven’t bought packaged food. I know it doesn’t sound like much, but it all adds up. There are a lot of us in the world. If we all make small changes in our buying habits, we have the potential to make a significant impact. Or, as I said earlier, you can just buy the pre-made version.
