The Take

Freshslice Pizza serves up cheap slices with actual 100% Canadian mozzarella and cheddar from pasteurized milk plus multigrain dough and fresh veggies. The problem is every popular sauce—pesto, ranch, white garlic, butter chicken—uses canola oil, and some meats carry soy isolate or soybean oil dips.

This is the pizza people order when they want to signal they're picking the slightly better Canadian chain instead of the obvious American imports. The identity play is health-adjacent cope on a budget.

The Verdict

The real cheese and multigrain crust give Freshslice a narrow edge on paper, but the canola-soaked sauces turn most menu items into the same industrial pizza experience. Pepperoni or plain cheese on multigrain with tomato sauce is the only move that avoids the worst of it.

Ask for olive oil drizzle on the side and skip all dipping sauces. Order that or walk.
