In case you haven't been paying attention to the news for, I don't know, the past decade, bees are in a lot of trouble. In fact, ABC News reports that between April 2018 and April 2019, the American managed bee population declined by 40.7 percent. Luckily, Papa John's is working hard to bring awareness to the situation the only way they know how: with pizza.

That's right, this week, Papa John's UK took to Instagram to share snaps of their tiny lil new "Beezza," AKA their pizza made exclusively for bees. According to Food & Wine, this one-of-a-kind item is based on the classic PJ's dough and passata, but it's then sprinkled with pollen, rosemary, and thyme. To top it all off, there are gorgeous flowers like Forget Me Nots and Rose Geraniums across the pie. Oh, and that's all within a one-inch diameter, so it's basically the cutest pizza ever.

Unfortunately, the pie is not only exclusively part of a UK promotion, but it's also unavailable for purchase. That said, Brits will still be able to celebrate the bees with Papa John's new "Bee Sting" pie, which sounds fantastic too. It's got a hot amarillo chili base and is topped with pepperoni, mozzarella, green chili, and, best of all, sweet honey.

PJ's is also working with the Bumblebee Conservation Trust to give out local wildflower seeds to those who like and comment on their bee-related posts. Finally, from now through September 1st, customers will have the option to donate their change to the trust. Either way, this is clearly a win-win for us and our buzzing friends.
