When one of Yough!'s co-founders was diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis and told he would have to give up pizza, he knew there had to be a better way. This challenge led him to the viral two-ingredient dough trend, which sparked the creation of a brand that rethinks frozen favorites through the power of Greek yogurt. Together, co-founders Michael Rolland and Jason Miller have built a better-for-you food brand that prioritizes high protein and clean, simple ingredients without losing the light, fluffy texture that pizza lovers crave.

By utilizing a first-of-its-kind Greek yogurt dough, Yough! delivers 40 to 50g of protein and fewer calories than traditional options. Michael and Jason are driving the brand's rapid momentum through playful branding and an engaging online community, leading to a nationwide presence in Target and Sprouts Farmers Market as they continue their mission to make pizza accessible for everyone.
