They want to know more about the ingredients being used,&rdquo; Nicole Quartuccio Ring, vice president of nutrition strategy for restaurant nutritional analysis experts Healthy Dining Finder, <a href="https://www.qsrmagazine.com/health-wellness/how-healthy-pizza-became-reality-quick-service?utm_campaign=20161220&amp%3Butm_medium=email&amp%3Butm_source=jolt&utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=qsr-how-healthy-pizza-became-a-reality-in-quick-service-8713" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">told&nbsp;QRS</a>. &ldquo;And it&rsquo;s not just a fad.
