Do you know that we use FOOD-SAFE INK on all of our pizza boxes?

Yes. We now use a Non-solvent, water-based organic ink. We do are diligent with our work and conscientious with the consumers as well as respect for nature. Food-safe ink is not the only feature we do. We are also developing sources for SOY and CORN-BASED ink. Currently these inks are still expensive but as soon as they are more readily available, we will use them for your boxes.
