About WG Pizza Empanada
Buena Vista Foods' whole grain pizza empanada brings a school foodservice sensibility to a hand-held format, wrapping a mozzarella cheese and pizza sauce filling inside a dough made from whole wheat and enriched white bread flour. The filling sauce uses corn syrup and soybean oil alongside crushed tomatoes and spices, which is a fairly standard institutional pizza sauce formulation. The whole grain flour contributes some fiber, and the mozzarella provides a moderate protein base. These are purpose-built for cafeteria service and deliver familiar flavors in a portable format, though the ingredient list reflects commercial food production priorities.
