Data on the Life Cycle Assessment of pizzas cooked and consumed at home taking into account the variability of consumer practices.

ABSTRACT: Human food consumption is responsible for significant environmental impacts, which in recent years have been the focus of an increasing amount of research. One of the major results of these efforts has been an appreciation for the ways in which impacts can differ among products. To date, though, relatively little is known about possible differences in the environmental performance of a single food product that is made or produced in different contexts. Furthermore, the influence of consumer practices, such as cooking time or cleaning method, has not yet been investigated. The goals of the study were therefore (i) to compare the environmental impacts of a single food product-in this case, pizza-that is produced in different contexts (industrial, homemade, and assembled at home) and (ii) to
