Is the Four Star Pizza base suitable for vegans?

Hi guys! I was just wondering if anyone can confirm whether or not the Four Star Pizza base is suitable for vegans? I emailed the company to ask but didn't receive a reply. I asked them a second question when I contacted them and they responded to that question only, so I'm thinking they probably aren't suitable...

I can't answer your question about four star pizza. But I'm just curious as to why pizza bases wouldn't be vegan.
When I make it at home its just flour water and yeast, maybe a bit of oil. What are the takeaway companies putting in it that makes it not vegan?

Some add milk powder, some add egg.

For example:

• Dominos (take-away) bases contain dairy.
• Little Caesar's (restaurant in Dublin city) use egg and milk powder to make their dough.
• Il Fuoco (restaurant in Dublin city) use egg to make their dough.

However,

• The bases in Milano restaurants are suitable for vegans.
• In Pizza Hut the deep pan base is the only type of base suitable for vegans.
• Apache Pizza bases are suitable for vegans.
• Millers (restaurant in Dublin city) can offer a vegan pizza.
• Pasta Fresca (restaurant in Dublin city) can offer a vegan pizza.

If anyone has details for any other restaurants / take-away places I'd be glad to learn them

Could be the sugar to activate the yeast. Or possibly that the oven might be contaminated with cheese or oils.
