ST. LOUIS — Panera Restaurants have added a new food category to their menus nationwide.

In a press release, the company announced the launch of pizza in three varieties: cheese, margherita and chipotle chicken & bacon. It's being called "craveable food people can feel great about."

“At Panera, baking is at the core of who we are and what we’re known for. We knew that we had all the elements to bring our delicious, hearty flatbreads to life,” said Head Chef Claes Petersson, Panera’s chief food & innovation officer. “With the launch of Flatbread pizza, we are looking to redefine the expectation of pizza and carve out a niche for Panera in the pizza category.
