PFAS score
Little Caesars · Pizza Boxes
Little Caesars fantastic four pizza box, Pedro Pascal
Skip until Little Caesars discloses coating chemistry or switches to PFAS-free grease-resistant alternatives.
Pizza box liners typically use grease-resistant coatings that historically contained PFAS, though reformulation is underway in the industry. Little Caesars makes no public disclosure about PFAS in their packaging. Without independent lab data or brand transparency, this product carries elevated concern for PFAS migration to food.

What we don’t know
This grade is a model-based estimate from public materials, coatings, and brand disclosure at 35% confidence. It is not a lab result.
No independent PFAS lab test is on record for this exact product. A lab test could move the score in either direction.
The brand has not made a specific, verifiable PFAS-free statement, so part of this score reflects that missing disclosure rather than a confirmed material.
Formulations and coatings change between production runs. Always check the current label before buying.
